scope of import

[Jeehong Min <je...@parasoft.com>]

All,

Just wanted to verify correct behavior in Xerces.

Suppose I have 3 schemas, with namespaces A, B, and C.
Schema A imports only schema B.  Schema B imports schema C.
Is it legal for schema A to use a type from schema C?

Xerces says no, saying that types from schema C are not referenceable from
schema A.  I agree with Xerces.  However, I have a customer who is using
XMLSpy which does not complain about this.

So, what is the correct interpretation?

Thanks,

Jeehong
