RE: Facets

Hi Richard,

Your schema does not seem to connect the content of 'validTypes' and the
vlaues used in the 'measurement/type' element.  I.e. your XMl document will
validate using this schema even if the value of type is not one of
validTypes.  I am not sure this the right way of doing it or not, but seems
to tie the validTypes and measurement/type.


XML Schema:

<xs:schema ......>
	<xs:element name="Measurements">
		<xs:complexType>
			<xs:sequence>
				<xs:element name="validTypes" type="myAAA"/>
				<xs:element name="measurement" type="myBBB"
maxOccurs="unbounded"/>
			</xs:sequence>
		</xs:complexType>
		<xs:key name="myId">
			<xs:selector xpath="./validTypes/type"/>
			<xs:field xpath="@hwType"/>
		</xs:key>
		<xs:keyref name="myIdref" refer="myId">
			<xs:selector xpath="./measurement/name"/>
			<xs:field xpath="@hwType"/>
		</xs:keyref>
	</xs:element>
	<xs:complexType name="myAAA">
		<xs:sequence>
			<xs:element name="type" maxOccurs="unbounded"/>
		</xs:sequence>
	</xs:complexType>
	<xs:complexType name="myBBB">
		<xs:sequence>
			<xs:element name="name"/>
		</xs:sequence>
	</xs:complexType>
	<xs:attribute name="hwType" type="xs:string"/>
</xs:schema>




XML input:

</Measurements......>
  <validTypes>
    <type hwType="analog"/> 
    <type hwType="digital"/>
    <type hwType="undefined"/> 
  </validTypes> 
  <measurement> 
    <name hwType="analog">Flow</name> 
  </measurement>
  <measurement> 
    <name hwType="digital">Heading</name> 
  </measurement>
  <measurement> 
    <name hwType="bus">Alt</name> 
  </measurement> 
</Measurements>
