non-schema <attribute> attributes cause error

           Summary: non-schema <attribute> attributes cause error
           Product: Xerces-C++
           Version: 1.5.2
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows NT/2K
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Major
          Priority: Other
         Component: Validating Parser (Schema) (Xerces 1.5 or up only)
        AssignedTo: xerces-c-dev@xml.apache.org
        ReportedBy: tdodd@iss.net


The W3C's XML Structures document allows the <attribute> element to contain 
attributes that belong to a non-schema namespace (see 
http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/REC-xmlschema-1-20010502/#element-attribute).  But 
parsing a document that relies upon a schema that contains <attribute> elements 
with such attributes causes an error during a validating parse.  Here's a test 
schema:

<schema xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema'
    targetNamespace='http://www.fred.com'
    xmlns:fred='http://www.fred.com'
    xmlns:barney='http://www.barney.com'
    elementFormDefault='qualified'
    version='1.0.0'>

    <complexType name='TestType'>
        <attribute name='display' type='boolean' barney:mutable='true'/>
    </complexType>

    <element name='test' type='fred:TestType'/>
</schema>

and a test document:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' standalone='no'?>
<test xmlns='http://www.fred.com'
    xmlns:xsi='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance'
    xsi:schemaLocation='http://www.fred.com ./TestSchema.xsd'
    display='true'/>

XML Spy validates both of these, but when I do a validating parse on the 
document, I get this error:

Error parsing file "C:\test\TestDocument.xml", line 5, column 21
   Message: Attribute 'mutable' cannot appear in local attribute declarations.

Please note that I am using Xerces/C 1.6.0, not 1.5.2:  your web form hasn't 
been updated to list 1.6.0 as an available release.

Please advise:  is this a bug?

thanks,
tim
