XSD 1.1 assertions
I am using the XSD 1.1 and trying to add assertions to the complex types.
I have an abstract complex type and another concrete complex type
extending the abstract complex type.
For example:
<xs:complexType name="abstract-comp-type" abstract="true">
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element
type="xs:string" name="description" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1" />
<xs:element name="comp-id"
type="xs:ID" minOccurs="1" />
</xs:complexType>
<xs:complexType name="concrete-comp-type">
<xs:complexContent>
<xs:extension
base="abstract-comp-type">
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="element1" type="xs:string" minOccurs="1" fixed="test"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:extension>
</xs:complexContent>
</xs:complexType>
If I have more than one complex types extending from abstract-comp-type,
how do I add validation to check if all the sub types have an element named
element1?
The reason why I need to add element1 in the sub type is to provide a
fixed value. I cannot use restriction because the sub type will have more
elements than the abstract type.
