RE: No placeholders for any and anyAttribute in XML though schema has them

I think that your problems are very specific to the XML editing tools you
are using and you would be much better off asking your questions on a forum
associated with those tools. There's nothing wrong with your schema as such.

Hi All,

 

Iam observing a strange behaviour. Pl let me know how to solve this problem.

 

I have three schemas(xsd) Java.xsd, database.xsd, base.xsd.

Iam importing java.xsd and database.xsd into base.xsd.

 

Snippets of all these schemas are given at the end of this email.

 

For instantiating my schema Iam doing below

(a)     Iam generating ecore and genmodel using base.xsd as input.

(b)     Then Iam generating EMF edit and editor plugins.

(c)     Launching a new instance of Eclipse and there Iam instantiating my
schema.

 

 

The problem I am observing is as described below

 

Note that in base.xsd I have a sequence under referenceType. This sequence
has 

        <xs:any namespace="##other" processContents="strict" minOccurs="0"/>

          So while instantiating an XML based on base.xsd, when I right
click on referenceType,

          I did get an option by name "set"(see database.xsd).

          But the problem is the attribute in java.xsd that is "javaAccess"
and

          attribute in database.xsd that is "cascade" are not shown under
referenceType

          though in base.xsd , referenceType has below

            <xs:anyAttribute namespace="##other" processContents="strict" />

 

    

The eclipse and related plugins installation details are as given below

==================================================

I have eclipse 3.2.1(Callisto) with EMF plugins with ver 2.2.1

Iam using EMF plugins of eclipse using which Iam instantiating the schema
and here Iam seeing that

Strange behaviour.

I have installed XML Spy Enterprise Edition version 2007 sp2 and
corresponding Eclipse plugin.

am using XML Spy only for editing schemas.

 

Thanks,

Swayam
