   RE: [xml-dev] [Xerces-J] DOM and Schema information

[ Lists Home | Date Index | Thread Index ]

DOM3 (in JAXP 1.3 and/or JDK 1.5) supports the methods
Element.getSchemaTypeInfo() and Attr.getSchemaTypeInfo(). These give you
some basic information about the type. In the Saxon implementation you can
get more detailed information by casting the resulting TypeInfo object to a
Saxon-specific class; I imagine the same is true in the Xerces
implementation.
