RE: using types from an included file in a different namespace

Files attached.

When I try to validate A.xml I get:

In XML Spy: It's valid.

In Saxon:
Error at xs:element on line 4 of file:/A.xsd:
  Cannot reference schema components in namespace http://mynamespace2 as it
has not been imported Warning: One error was found while processing the
schema Warning: Validation will continue without the schema at A.xsd
Validation error on line 1 column 137 of file:.../A.xml:
  Cannot validate <hello>: no element declaration available Validation of
source document failed

In Stylus Studio (I think it uses Xerces-C):
file:.../A.xsd:4,46: Schema Representation Constraint: Namespace
'http://mynamespace2' is referenced without <import> declaration
The XML document A.xml is NOT valid (1 errors)



Regards,
Leo.

Hi Leo,

You should be able to make references to components defined in F.xsd 
from A.xsd as you describe but the best way to tell is to provide a cut 
down sample schemas to show what you mean exactly.

George
