Package com.saxonica.schema Description
</H2>
<P>
<p>This package contains classes used to represent the information in a schema, that is, the schema components.
The model is closely related to the schema component model defined in the XSD specifications, but not
identical in every respect.</p>
<p>Representing the schema itself is the class <A HREF="../../../com/saxonica/schema/PreparedSchema.html" title="class in com.saxonica.schema"><CODE>PreparedSchema</CODE></A>.
All the schemas that have been imported into the application are linked from the
<A HREF="../../../net/sf/saxon/Configuration.html" title="class in net.sf.saxon"><CODE>Configuration</CODE></A> object; they thus outlive a single transformation or query. Other
important classes have intuitive names, for example ComplexType, SimpleType,
ElementDecl, and AttributeDecl.</p>
<p>Schema components in Saxon are always built from schema documents, so the classes representing objects in the
schema are constructed using the corresponding classes in the <code>com.saxonica.schema.sdoc</code>
package. (There is an exception to this: schema components can also be exported to an SCM file, and
subsequently re-imported from this file.)</p>
<p>The schema class obtained by the <code>Configuration.getSuperSchema()</code> method represents
the collection of all loaded schemas. There can only be
one active collection of schema components for any one namespace. This means it is not possible to use two
unrelated no-namespace schemas concurrently, or two different versions of a schema for the same
namespace.</p>
<p>Named types, element declarations, and attribute declarations are indexed
directly from the NamePool. It is not necessary first to locate the schema in
which they are contained, they can be found directly using the namePool fingerprint
of their expanded QName.</p>
<p>The schema model retains nearly all the information in the source schema: the notable
omission is annotations.</p>
<p>The API for this package is particular to Saxon, though it is influenced by the definition of schema
components in the XSD specification. At some time in the future it is
possible that it may be replaced by an API conforming to externally-defined standards.</p>
<p><i>The code in this package was originally derived from <a href="http://www.castor.org/">Castor</a>, but has
been totally rewritten (though traces of the design may still be in evidence). </i></p>
