namespace choice withTools -> Generating Sample XML file

[PaulHermans]

<oXygen/> XML Editor 12.1, build 2011031114

XSD snippet

Code: Select all

<xsd:schema

    xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"

    xmlns:xhtml="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"

    xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#"

    xmlns="http://www.example.com/vocab/product"

    targetNamespace="http://www.example.com/vocab/product" 

    elementFormDefault="qualified"

    >

    <xsd:import

        namespace="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#"

        schemaLocation="rdf.xsd" />

    <xsd:import

        namespace="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"

        schemaLocation="http://www.w3.org/2002/08/xhtml/xhtml1-strict.xsd" />

    <xsd:include

        schemaLocation="datatypes.xsd" />

    <xsd:element

        name="product">...</xsd:element>

having only one root element in the target namespace schema.

With Oxygen's Tools -> Generating Sample XML file
I get http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml as namespace and only xhtml elements as potential root elements.

While another product generates

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<p1:product p2:about="URI" xmlns:p1="http://www.example.com/vocab/product" 

xmlns:p2="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#" 

xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" 

xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.example.com/vocab/product ./IPDC.xsd">

    <!--Attribute p2:about is optional-->

    <p1:ID>URI</p1:ID>

    <p1:titel>string</p1:titel>

    <p1:naam>string</p1:naam>

    <p1:inhoud>

        <!--'Sequence' block is optional-->

        <!--Any Element, maxOccurs=unbounded-->

        <any_element/>

        <any_element/>

        <any_element/>

    </p1:inhoud>

....

   </p1:product>

conforming to my expectations.

Am I overlooking something to get the correct target namespace in Oxygen?

Hello,

In Oxygen I get in the Root Element combo box all the XHTML elements and the product one from the http://www.example.com/vocab/product namespace. If I select product the http://www.example.com/vocab/product namespace is selected in the Namespace box and I can generate an XML instance with the product root element. Did you try to select product in the Root Element combo box?

Indeed.

I expected, according to the order of the fields, that I could first choose the namespace and then the element, but it works the other way around.

Thanks.

I think you are right, the namespace box should be a combo box too. I will file an enhancement request in our system.
