retrieving annotations from the Schema...
Hi!
I have a little problem when trying to retrieve the annotations from my
xml-Schema.
Schema snippet...
...
<xs:element name="project">
<xs:annotation>
<xs:documentation>Project</xs:documentation>
</xs:annotation>
<xs:complexType>
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="name" type="xs:string">
<xs:annotation>
<xs:documentation>Name of the Project</xs:documentation>
</xs:annotation>
</xs:element>
<xs:element name="description" type="xs:string">
<xs:annotation>
<xs:appinfo>Description of the Project</xs:appinfo>
</xs:annotation>
</xs:element>
...
I'm trying to access the name element annotation via
SchemaLocalElement schemaElement = (SchemaLocalElement)
projectDocument.getProject
().schemaType().getContentModel().getParticleChild(0);
System.out.println(schemaElement.getAnnotation
().getUserInformation()[0].execQuery("//xs:documentation/text()")[0])
That gives me:
<xml-fragment>Name of the Project</xml-fragment>
I just want 'Name of the Project'.
How can I achieve it.
Thanks.

Hi Sujoy,
I see the point. But W3C XML Schema provides this kind of documentation.
They should not be element tags but metadata describing an element tag.
I use XMLSpy 2005 and this program to generates the documentation like this.

Tammo

Hi,
I want to point out something about the schema itself....
<xs:element name="project">
<xs:annotation>
<xs:documentation>Project</xs:documentation>
</xs:annotation>
<xs:complexType>
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="name" type="xs:string">
<xs:annotation>
<xs:documentation>Name of the Project</xs:documentation>
</xs:annotation>
</xs:element>
<xs:element name="description" type="xs:string">
<xs:annotation>
<xs:appinfo>Description of the Project</xs:appinfo>
</xs:annotation>
</xs:element>
...
In the schema itself it is not advisable to write the data part. Here in
the <xs:documentation>Project</xs:documentation>, the schema compiler
expects something like <xs:element name="documentation" type="xs:string"
></xs:documentation>. Again in the case of <xs:documentation>Name of
the Project</xs:documentation> and <xs:appinfo>Description of the
Project</xs:appinfo>, the compiler expects something like
<xs:element name="appinfo" type="xs:string"></xs:element>. These
definitions may be defined globally or locally within the definition of
another element.
I think rewriting the schema in this fashion would solve the value
retrieving problem. The data part should be in another XML where the
schema is referenced.
Let me know whether it helps really?
