ant elder updated TUSCANY-637: ------------------------------ Fix Version/s: Cpp-current > In sca-core.xsd, component should not contain property type definition > elements > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: TUSCANY-637 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TUSCANY-637 > Project: Tuscany > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Specification > Affects Versions: Cpp-current > Reporter: Jean-Sebastien Delfino > Assigned To: Jean-Sebastien Delfino > Fix For: Cpp-current > > > Sca-core.xsd defines a single complexType for two very different things: > - the definition of a property type (in a Type definition, i.e. a component > type or a composite, which I view like a partial definition of a concrete > type) > - the configuration of a property on a component (an instance of a type) > As far as I know we're not supporting the definition of property types on > instances yet, some programming languages do that and it's useful but we > don't support this on components yet :) so Component should define its > <property> element differently. We should have two different types: > - PropertyType - representing the definition of a property type > - Property - representing the configuration of a property on a component > I will bring this issue to the OSOA spec workgroup. > Here's what I propose: > <complexType name="PropertyType"> > <complexContent> > <extension base="anyType"> > <attribute name="name" type="NCName" use="required" /> > <attribute name="type" type="QName" use="required" /> > <attribute name="many" type="boolean" default="false" > use="optional" /> > <attribute name="override" type="sca:OverrideOptions" > default="may" use="optional" /> > <anyAttribute namespace="##any" processContents="lax" /> > </extension> > </complexContent> > </complexType> > <complexType name="Property"> > <complexContent> > <extension base="anyType"> > <attribute name="name" type="NCName" use="required" /> > <attribute name="source" type="string" use="optional" /> > <anyAttribute namespace="##any" processContents="lax" /> > </extension> > </complexContent> > </complexType> > Note: I also propose to change the definition of PropertyType and Property to > extend anyType instead of containing an <xsd:any>. The way the 0.95 XSD is > defined you cannot assign a simple value to a property or define a simple > default value on a property... for example the following SCDL will cause an > XMLSchema validation error complaining that property can only contain > "element only" content: > <property name="currency" type="xs:string">USD</property> > I'm not an XSD expert so maybe there's a better - simpler? :) way to support > this very simple case than extending anyType... but this definitely needs to > be fixed. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
