how to deal with extensible schemas
Hi,
I am trying to figure out how to deal with extensible schemas. What want is to have the possibility to use xs:any element to declare that any xml content can be hooked under a given element. If I create a schema like:
<xs:complexType name="container">
<xs:sequence>
<xs:any minOccurs="0"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
when I use scomp to generate java code and classes I obtain a dummy class for the element type 'container' and can find no way to hook any XMLObject inside it.
In XMLCursor I can see there are methods to insert single elements or attributes, but no way to insert a whole XMLObject contents under a given cursor position.
In XMLObject I cannot find nothing of help.
Does anybody have any ideas?
Javier

Thanks a lot, Yogesh, I was already playing with this.
Actually, I was not sure about calling cursorTo.toNextToken()
after creating cursorTo. I will try with your code.
Thanks again
Javier

Hi,
I am still trying to copy a document inside a placeholder in an
extensible schema. Usage of cursors semms to be the solution, as pointed out
by Yogesh.
But now I face another problem: if I try to copy a whole document, instead
of a document fragment, I get an exception ( IllegalArgumentException )
telling me that the operation cannot be carried out for a whole document.
Is there a way around this??

You can create an XmlCursor for the XmlObject you wish to insert and to the
Container and use the copyXml method in the cursor.
e.g. to insert 'child' XmlObject in container,
XmlCursor cursorTo = container.newCursor();
cursorTo.toNextToken();
XmlCursor cursorFrom = child.newCursor();
cursorFrom.copyXml(cursorTo);
cursorFrom.dispose();
cursorTo.dispose();

e.g. to insert 'child' XmlObject in container,
XmlCursor cursorTo = container.newCursor();
cursorTo.toNextToken();
XmlCursor cursorFrom = child.newCursor();
cursorFrom.copyXml(cursorTo);
cursorFrom.dispose();
cursorTo.dispose();
