I'm quite new to xml schemas.
I do not really understand why if it is possible to define a simple type as
a restriction on the range of values of another simple type, like this for
instance:
<xsd:simpleType name="type1">
<xsd:restriction base="xsd:integer">
<xsd:minInclusive value="0"/>
<xsd:maxInclusive value="100"/>
</xsd:restriction>
</xsd:simpleType>
<xsd:simpleType name="type2">
<xsd:restriction base="type1">
<xsd:minInclusive value="10"/>
<xsd:maxInclusive value="20"/>
</xsd:restriction>
</xsd:simpleType>
the reciprocal operation of defining a simple type as an extension on the
range of values of another simple type is an error (at least I get an error
with the apache parser):
<xsd:simpleType name="type1">
<xsd:restriction base="xsd:integer">
<xsd:minInclusive value="0"/>
<xsd:maxInclusive value="100"/>
</xsd:restriction>
</xsd:simpleType>
<xsd:simpleType name="type2">
<xsd:extension base="type1">
<xsd:minInclusive value="-100"/>
<xsd:maxInclusive value="200"/>
</xsd:extension >
</xsd:simpleType>
thanks a lot.
