Hi,

All examples I found on extension on a complexType are done by
appending one (or more) elements to  a sequence content model 
(by a sequence in xs:extension).

Nevertheless, the schema (example of the previous message)  is validate by XSV.

What coud be the result content model :

Does 

 <xs:complexType name="tseq-ext-choi">
     <xs:complexContent>
         <xs:extension base="tseq">
             <xs:choice>
                 <xs:element name="t3"/>
             </xs:choice>
         </xs:extension>
     </xs:complexContent>
 </xs:complexType>


equivalent to :

<xs:complexType name="tseq-ext-choi">
    <xs:choice>
            <xs:sequence>
                    <xs:element name="t1"/>
                    <xs:element name="t2"/>
            </xs:sequence>
            <xs:element name="t3"/>
    </xs:choice>
</xs:complexType> 

?

Or what could be the equivalent content model ?

I do not found the answer in the specification.


Thanks in advance
