Salut George,
the actual element names still have to be in the schema ...
<xs:element name="TableDrop" type="CommonType" substitutionGroup="common"/>
<xs:element name="Sizes" type="CommonType" substitutionGroup="common"/>
and I don't know these name in advance.
The elements could be named ...
<xs:element name="TableDrop1" type="CommonType" substitutionGroup="common"/>
<xs:element name="Sizes1" type="CommonType" substitutionGroup="common"/>
Thanks a lot for your help!
Best regards, Wolf

Hi Wolf,
Then you can do that with substitution groups. You can define an
abstract element of the expected type, make the type final and then in
the instance there will be accepted only elements of that type that can
substitute the abstract element.
Here it is an example:
sample.xsd schema:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<xs:element name="root">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:choice maxOccurs="unbounded">
<xs:element ref="common"/>
</xs:choice>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
<xs:element name="common" abstract="true" type="CommonType"/>
<xs:complexType name="CommonType" mixed="true" final="#all">
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="LocalVariables" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:choice>
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="l_start" minOccurs="1"
maxOccurs="1"/>
<xs:element name="l_end" minOccurs="1"
maxOccurs="1"/>
</xs:sequence>
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="l_first" minOccurs="1"
maxOccurs="1"/>
<xs:element name="l_second" minOccurs="1"
maxOccurs="1"/>
<xs:element name="l_third" minOccurs="1"
maxOccurs="1"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:choice>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
<xs:element name="TableDrop" type="CommonType"
substitutionGroup="common"/>
<xs:element name="Sizes" type="CommonType" substitutionGroup="common"/>
</xs:schema>
valid instance:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<root xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="sample.xsd">
<TableDrop>
public string code (string l_p) {
return l_first + l_p + l_second + l_p + l_third;
}
<LocalVariables>
<l_first>
aString = _T("drop table </l_first>
<l_second>
"); hr = Oc.Execute( aString );
if ( FAILED(hr) ) _tprintf(_T("Oc.Execute drop
table failed with EBSc_TAB_</l_second>
<l_third>
"));
</l_third>
</LocalVariables>
</TableDrop>
<Sizes>
public string code (string l_p) { return l_start + l_p + l_end;}
<LocalVariables>
<l_start>//TYPEDEF[attribute::name=</l_start>
<l_end>]/attribute::size</l_end>
</LocalVariables>
</Sizes>
</root>
Hope that helps,
George
