Supported XML schema constructs

The following XML schema constructs are supported in BMC Remedy AR System:

Elements

• global element declaration
• local element declaration
• nillable for an element
• minOccurs =0 for an element
• default for an element
• an element that has a ref to another element

Attributes

• attribute
• default for attributes
• attributeGroup

Types

• named simpleType
• inlined simpleType
• named complexType
• inlined complexType

Derivation

• complexType derived from complexContent by extension
• complexType derived from complexContent by restriction
• complexType derived from simpleContent by extension
• simpleType derived from simpleContent by restriction
• simpleType derived from simpleType by restriction (The restriction is ignored)

Model group

• sequence directly under a complexType with maxOccurs =1 and minOccurs =1 (if maxOccurs and minOccurs are unspecified, they default to 1)
• choice directly under a complexType with maxOccurs =1 and minOccurs =1
• all directly under a complexType with maxOccurs =1 and minOccurs =1
• sequence directly inside a sequence with maxOccurs =1 and minOccurs =1
• choice directly inside a choice with maxOccurs =1 and minOccurs =1
• choice directly inside a sequence with maxOccurs =1 and minOccurs =1
• group
• maxOccurs=unbounded for an element which is the sole child of a sequence. In all other situations, maxOccurs must be 1 or not be specified. Instead of maxOccurs=unbounded, it could also be maxOccurs=20 (or some other number greater than 1) in which case any XML generated by BMC Remedy AR System would have 20 or fewer elements. This element must be of a complexType.
• Namespaces
  • targetNamespace
  • chameleon namespaces
• Multiple documents
  • include
  • import
• Miscellaneous
  • annotation
