Hi!
I have a problem to get the complex-type-definition of a locally-defined
element, which uses a reference to a complex type.
For example:
I have a schema (listing at the end of this posting) and I want to get the
the complex-Type-Definition of the testlecturer-element (the fifth
xsd-element under the rootelement "lva").
With
schema.resolveElementDeclaration(c_schema.getTargetNamespace (), "testlecturer
") I get an XSDElementDeclaration.
Using the toString() method leads to the following output.
org.eclipse.xsd.impl.XSDElementDeclarationImpl@439a20 (element: null) (name:
testlecturer, targetNamespace: http://www.infosys.tuwien.ac.at/ns/xml)
(value: null, constraint: <unset>, form: <unset>, lexicalValue: null)
(nillable: <unset>, disallowedSubstitutions: null,
substitutionGroupExclusions: null, abstract: <unset>, lexicalFinal: null,
block: null).
So I am not able to receive a valid XSDTypeDefinition-Objekt with
elem.getTypeDefinition() because the Type-Definition is null;
The testlecturer-element is also not available in the
Element-Declarations-List which you get with
schema.getElementDeclarations(). Why?
Has anyone an idea how I can get the complex-type-definition of testlecturer
when I have only the name of the element ("testlecturer") and the namespace?
Thanks in advance,
Tom.

Your element "testlecturer" is a local element declaration. To resolve it
correctly, a context specifying a complex type definition is needed in addition
to a namespace and a local name. I.e., you need to search the complex type
definition's particles to resolve the namespace and local name to an element
declaration. (It may occur more than once in the content, but each occurrence
is required to have the identical type.) There is no convenience method to
perform this lookup.
