XSD reference to outside java package

[Marcel Heijmans <ma...@mnemonics.nl>]

Hi,

Is it possible from within an xsd to refer to a type in
another package (not in an xsd).

Something like:

<xsd:attribute name="date" type="bar.foo.Date"/>

Cheers,

Assuming that you accept a little bit different syntax:
In theory, yes. In practice, a little work remains.

First of all, lets discuss the question of syntax. I would
suggest something like

     <xsd:attribute name="date">
	<xsd:simpleType base="xsd:dateTime">
	    <xsd:annotation><xsd:appinfo>
                 <jaxme:type sgClass="bar.foo.generator.Date"/>
             </xsd:appinfo></xsd:annotation>
         </xsd:simpleType>
     </xsd:attribute>

with sgClass being a subclass of AtomicTypeSGImpl, much like
DateTimeSG.

(The code handling the jaxme:type element would need to be
written, but that's an almost trivial task.)
