Interface SchemaComponent

All Known Subinterfaces:

SchemaAnnotation, SchemaAttributeGroup, SchemaGlobalAttribute, SchemaGlobalElement, SchemaIdentityConstraint, SchemaModelGroup, SchemaType

public interface SchemaComponent

Represents a global Schema Component. That is, a type, element, attribute, model group, attribute group, or identity constraint.

Note that not all types, elements, and attributes are global; local types, element, and attributes do not appear in the global lookup table. Also note that other information items such as particles, facets, and so on are not globally indexed, so are not SchemaComponents.

SchemaType, SchemaGlobalElement, SchemaGlobalAttribute, SchemaAttributeGroup, SchemaModelGroup, SchemaIdentityConstraint

SchemaComponent.Ref	getComponentRef() Used for on-demand loading of schema components.
int	getComponentType() Returns the type code for the schema object, either TYPE, ELEMENT, ATTRIBUTE, ATTRIBUTE_GROUP, MODEL_GROUP, IDENTITY_CONSTRAINT, or NOTATION.
QName	getName() The name of the schema component
String	getSourceName() The name of resource that represends the source .xsd in which this component was defined (if known) See: SchemaTypeLoader.getSourceAsStream(String) Example:
