   RE: [xml-dev] misunderstanding of XML Schema ?

[ Lists Home | Date Index | Thread Index ]

Thank you for you response,

Why does it expect the second Propery to be of DisplayPropertyType?
I have defined the second Property to be of type "TypePropertyType".

Subject: Re: [xml-dev] misunderstanding of XML Schema ?

This is because you have defined the Property element several times
within the same schema, with a different datatype each time.  XML Spy is
complaining on the second Property element because it expects it to be
of "DisplayPropertyType", but instead it is of "TypePropertyType".

According to your XML instance, it appears that Property has the same
content model on each occurrence.  You should probably just declare the
Property element once and use the "maxOccurs" facet on it, to make it
repeatable.

Hope that helps.
