Re: xs:all, xs:sequence, and xs:choice

Hi Xiaofeng,

See http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-1/#element-complexContent..extension
The content type of the extended type whose base content type and 
effective content are not empty is a sequence containing the base 
content type and the effective content.

So you will get as a result for the extended type a content type 
particle of the form:

xs:sequence (
	baseContentTypeParticles
	effectiveContentParticles
)

As xs:all cannot appear inside xs:sequence it means that you should not 
use it in neither the base nor in the extended type.

Best Regards,
George
