Hi,
Addmitedly, I've been away from oXygen for a while and have forgotten a basic of XML authoring.
I'm looking to import my schema as follows

Code: Select all


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

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

    xsi:SchemaLocation="http://docs.oasis-open.org/legaldocml/ns/akn/3.0/CSD01 ./akomantoso20.xsd">

<tag1FromXSD>

</tag1FromXSD>

<lotsMoreTags>

</lotsMoreTags>

...

    

</akomaNtoso>

Please note that the online schemaLoction does NOT exist yet, however I have it available locally e.g. in the same directory as the XML I am authoring.
I would therefore like to have elements autocomplete whenever I try to open a new tag e.g. <tag1FromXSD>. This should be picked up from the XSD within the same directory.

How do I do this?
Sorry for real basic question.
Thank you very much for the help if it is available.

Hi,

The most significant issue with this is that XML is case sensitive, so xsi:SchemaLocation won't work. It has to be xsi:schemaLocation (note the lowercase 's'). You'll also need to declare the default namespace: xmlns="http://docs.oasis-open.org/legaldocml/ns/akn/3.0/CSD01" (assuming that this is the target namespace of the schema).

However, it's a lot easier to just use Oxygen's Associate Schema action (Document > Schema > Associate Schema or the corresponding toolbar button), pick your XML schema file, and it will do all this for you.

Regards,
Adrian
