Parsing XML Schema

[Paulo Silveira <ps...@gmail.com>]

Hi All,

I need to parse a XML Schema to get information about the types declared in
it.

I implemented as following:

XmlObject xobj = XmlObject.Factory.parse(myXSDFile);
SchemaTypeLoader schemaLoader = XmlBeans.loadXsd(new XmlObject[]{xobj});

QName qname = new QName(myTypeName);

SchemaType st = schemaLoader.findType(qname);
st.getFacet(SchemaType.FACET_...);

Is it a good way to implement it?

I need to get facet restriction from a XML Schema in runtime.

Thanks,
Paulo

Looks reasonable to me. You may want to also look at
XmlBeans.compileXsd(). The advantage of compileXsd() over loadXsd() is
that it allows you to then enumerate all the types that existed in the
Schema. But if know the name of the type, loadXsd() whould suffice and
it is easier to use. So your code is good.
