Is it possible (and if so, how) to enforce with XML Schema that two elements in a document must contain an identical substructure? For instance, I'd like to express that any foo has two children, bar1 and bar2, and bar1 has to have the same child structure as bar2: <foo> <bar1> <baz>hello, world</baz> </bar1> <bar2> <baz>h...

When validating an xml document using xml-Schema and namespaces, the instance document has to have its global element prefixed with a namespace to qualify it, besides declaring the namespace itself. One would think that a default namespace would suffice in this case to qualify the element, but xml-Schema apparently has another opinion. ...
I'm getting this XML from a service that I need to deal with. I'm not much on XML Schema or Namespace fu, but to me it looks a mess. Can someone take a look at it and tell me how to make it nicer? http://gist.github.com/325952 I know that the namespace definitions can be declared in the first line, and not on every line. Is there an...
In the schema below, the line <xs:element type="cmn:AddressType" name="ResidentialAddress" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1" /> gives an error Type 'http://company.com/Common:AddressType' is not declared. Does anyone know why? It shows in the Visual Studio 2008 editor, and also if I try validate an XML file with XDocument. Schema Student.xsd...
I am attempting to write an XML Schema to cover a number of XML conditions which I may encounter. I have the same root element (serviceRequest) with different child elements. I was trying to use the xs:extension element to define multiple versions, but it is complaining about unexpected element orderInclusionCriteria etc. Am I going a...

I've some XML being returned from various sources and rather than update each of the sources so that they return date-specific data as attributes in either xs:date or xs:dateTime format I'd like for the XML Schema to be liberal and accept either. Is it possible to use an OR operator somehow? What are the options? ...

Given an XML schema (XSD) and arbitrarily many sample files (XML) based on that schema, I need to create an XML parser/binder to load those files. The parser must be available from within a C++ program. All open source or commercial tools I looked at do not support keyrefs, which are heavily used in the XSD at hand. Do you know any too...

I have an existing data model. I would like to express this data model in terms of XML. It looks like I have two options if I'm to use JAXB: Create an XSD that mirrors my data model, and use xjc to create binding objects. Marshalling and unmarshalling will involve creating a "mapping" class that would take my existing data objects a...
Assuming you have two lists defined in an xml schema, call them A and B, is there a way to say A must be one or more items and B must be the same length as A? ...
Hello there, I have been thinking about the optimal way to create an XML file using data from a Dataset AND according to the rules of an XML schema. I've been searching around for a bit, and I failed to find a way in which I only take the data from the Dataset and put it inside a XML tags, with the tags being defined by an already-exist...
I'm having trouble creating an XSD for some xml. A bit of background might help. The xml is for messaging. In particular, the message is designed to be simple, and designed to be cross referenced easily. At its heart is a recursive key value set up. Simple Key values are like this. <key name="quantity">5</key> <key name="pric...
