Re: Problem with .NET - Invalid particle derivation by restriction

Thanks Dare

This is a "just useable" workaround for now but is obviously cumbersome and
less than ideal. I would be very interested to hear your response to Henry's
analysis earlier.

This issue actually is the culmination of a series of issues around this
area - originally we had the definition of xbrli:tupleType as

<complexType name="tupleType" final="extension">
<choice minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded">
    <element ref="xbrli:item" maxOccurs="unbounded" />
    <element ref="xbrli:tuple" maxOccurs="unbounded" />
</choice>
<attribute name="id" type="ID" use="optional" />
<anyAttribute namespace="##other" processContents="lax" />
</complexType>

but .NET didn't like that (again the only validator that didn't) so we
opened it up to be

<complexType name="tupleType" final="extension">
  <sequence>
    <any namespace="##other" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded" />
  </sequence>
  <attribute name="id" type="ID" use="optional" />
  <anyAttribute namespace="##other" processContents="lax" />
</complexType>

and forced the checking of the XBRL rule that says "All element declarations
within tuples MUST be references to global element declarations that are in
substitution groups that have either item or tuple as their head" to be done
at the XBRL level and not at the XML Schema level

Cheers

Hugh

Can you use this definition instead. Note that this means that <Director
/> is a valid element, but given that you allow <Director xsi:nil="true"
/> this seems like it may be satisfactory to you.

<element id="ci_Director" name="Director"
substitutionGroup="xbrli:tuple" nillable="true" >
    <complexType>
      <complexContent>
        <restriction base="xbrli:tupleType">
          <sequence>
     <choice minOccurs="0">
       <sequence>
<element ref="ci:Name" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1" />
<element ref="ci:Salary" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" />
       </sequence>
     </choice>
          </sequence>
        </restriction>
      </complexContent>
    </complexType>
  </element>
