Typed recursive element

Question

Hi, 1. Need to define XSD element that has some attributes and can hold list of itself

This is the type definition:

<xs:complexType name="t_TestCase" >
  <xs:sequence>
    <xs:element type="t_TestCase" minOccurs="0"></xs:element>
  </xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>

This is the element based on the type:

1. BUT - when adding attribute to the type - it seems that it is not valid anymore. (the sequence tag is invalid)

Advise please?

Tx

Answer 1

Use a complex type like so:

  <xs:element name="t_TestCase">
    <xs:complexType>
      <xs:sequence>
        <xs:element minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded" ref="t_TestCase"/>
      </xs:sequence>
      <xs:attribute name="att1"/>
    </xs:complexType>
  </xs:element>

Edit: my first answer sucked

Answer 2

I miss here something....is it that the problem was the order of appearence of the sequence and attribute tags (sequence must come first)?
