XmlSchemaDocumentation Class
Represents the documentation element from XML Schema as specified by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). This class specifies information to be read or used by humans within an annotation.
Assembly: System.Xml (in System.Xml.dll)
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | XmlSchemaDocumentation() | Initializes a new instance of the XmlSchemaDocumentation class. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | Language | Gets or sets the xml:lang attribute. This serves as an indicator of the language used in the contents. |
![]() | LineNumber | Gets or sets the line number in the file to which the schema element refers.(Inherited from XmlSchemaObject.) |
![]() | LinePosition | Gets or sets the line position in the file to which the schema element refers.(Inherited from XmlSchemaObject.) |
![]() | Markup | Gets or sets an array of XmlNodes that represents the documentation child nodes. |
![]() | Namespaces | Gets or sets the XmlSerializerNamespaces to use with this schema object.(Inherited from XmlSchemaObject.) |
![]() | Parent | Gets or sets the parent of this XmlSchemaObject.(Inherited from XmlSchemaObject.) |
![]() | Source | Gets or sets the Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) source of the information. |
![]() | SourceUri | Gets or sets the source location for the file that loaded the schema.(Inherited from XmlSchemaObject.) |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | Equals(Object^) | Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.(Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | Finalize() | Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection.(Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | GetHashCode() | Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | GetType() | |
![]() | MemberwiseClone() | |
![]() | ToString() | Returns a string that represents the current object.(Inherited from Object.) |
Information supplied within the XmlSchemaDocumentation class is not used in validation. However, it provides a standardized way to supply information that can be retrieved by tools.
The following example creates the documentation element.
#using <mscorlib.dll> #using <System.Xml.dll> using namespace System; using namespace System::Xml; using namespace System::Xml::Schema; class XmlSchemaExamples { public: static void Main() { XmlSchema^ schema = gcnew XmlSchema(); // <xs:simpleType name="northwestStates"> XmlSchemaSimpleType^ simpleType = gcnew XmlSchemaSimpleType(); simpleType->Name = "northwestStates"; schema->Items->Add(simpleType); // <xs:annotation> XmlSchemaAnnotation^ annNorthwestStates = gcnew XmlSchemaAnnotation(); simpleType->Annotation = annNorthwestStates; // <xs:documentation>States in the Pacific Northwest of US</xs:documentation> XmlSchemaDocumentation^ docNorthwestStates = gcnew XmlSchemaDocumentation(); annNorthwestStates->Items->Add(docNorthwestStates); docNorthwestStates->Markup = TextToNodeArray("States in the Pacific Northwest of US"); // <xs:restriction base="xs:string"> XmlSchemaSimpleTypeRestriction^ restriction = gcnew XmlSchemaSimpleTypeRestriction(); simpleType->Content = restriction; restriction->BaseTypeName = gcnew XmlQualifiedName("string", "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"); // <xs:enumeration value="WA"> XmlSchemaEnumerationFacet^ enumerationWA = gcnew XmlSchemaEnumerationFacet(); restriction->Facets->Add(enumerationWA); enumerationWA->Value = "WA"; // <xs:annotation> XmlSchemaAnnotation^ annWA = gcnew XmlSchemaAnnotation(); enumerationWA->Annotation = annWA; // <xs:documentation>Washington</documentation> XmlSchemaDocumentation^ docWA = gcnew XmlSchemaDocumentation(); annWA->Items->Add(docWA); docWA->Markup = TextToNodeArray("Washington"); // <xs:enumeration value="OR"> XmlSchemaEnumerationFacet^ enumerationOR = gcnew XmlSchemaEnumerationFacet(); restriction->Facets->Add(enumerationOR); enumerationOR->Value = "OR"; // <xs:annotation> XmlSchemaAnnotation^ annOR = gcnew XmlSchemaAnnotation(); enumerationOR->Annotation = annOR; // <xs:documentation>Oregon</xs:documentation> XmlSchemaDocumentation^ docOR = gcnew XmlSchemaDocumentation(); annOR->Items->Add(docOR); docOR->Markup = TextToNodeArray("Oregon"); // <xs:enumeration value="ID"> XmlSchemaEnumerationFacet^ enumerationID = gcnew XmlSchemaEnumerationFacet(); restriction->Facets->Add(enumerationID); enumerationID->Value = "ID"; // <xs:annotation> XmlSchemaAnnotation^ annID = gcnew XmlSchemaAnnotation(); enumerationID->Annotation = annID; // <xs:documentation>Idaho</xs:documentation> XmlSchemaDocumentation^ docID = gcnew XmlSchemaDocumentation(); annID->Items->Add(docID); docID->Markup = TextToNodeArray("Idaho"); XmlSchemaSet^ schemaSet = gcnew XmlSchemaSet(); schemaSet->ValidationEventHandler += gcnew ValidationEventHandler(ValidationCallbackOne); schemaSet->Add(schema); schemaSet->Compile(); XmlSchema^ compiledSchema; for each (XmlSchema^ schema1 in schemaSet->Schemas()) { compiledSchema = schema1; } XmlNamespaceManager^ nsmgr = gcnew XmlNamespaceManager(gcnew NameTable()); nsmgr->AddNamespace("xs", "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"); compiledSchema->Write(Console::Out, nsmgr); } static void ValidationCallbackOne(Object^ sender, ValidationEventArgs^ args) { Console::WriteLine(args->Message); } static array<XmlNode^>^ TextToNodeArray(String^ text) { XmlDocument^ doc = gcnew XmlDocument(); array<XmlNode^>^ nodes = gcnew array<XmlNode^> {doc->CreateTextNode(text)}; return nodes; } }; int main() { XmlSchemaExamples::Main(); return 0; };
The following XML file is generated for the preceding code example.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="IBM437"?> <xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"> <xs:simpleType name="northwestStates"> <xs:annotation> <xs:documentation>States in the Pacific Northwest of US</xs:documentation> </xs:annotation> <xs:restriction base="xs:string"> <xs:enumeration value="WA"> <xs:annotation> <xs:documentation>Washington</xs:documentation> </xs:annotation> </xs:enumeration> <xs:enumeration value="OR"> <xs:annotation> <xs:documentation>Oregon</xs:documentation> </xs:annotation> </xs:enumeration> <xs:enumeration value="ID"> <xs:annotation> <xs:documentation>Idaho</xs:documentation> </xs:annotation> </xs:enumeration> </xs:restriction> </xs:simpleType> </xs:schema>
