Subject: Re: [ubl-dev] Aggregate components: XML complexType and type= vs.ref=
Jon
Thanks for the information. I missed the subtleties of the UBL NDR because I have only read the Checklist version.
I am studying the UN/CEFACT NDR in more detail to understand them better and to see if they explicitly mandate the use of ‘type=’. UN/CEFACT schemas use it, for example:
I look forward to seeing a draft new NDR.

The UN/CEFACT rules came after the UBL rules. So you will have to ask UN/CEFACT why they chose a different design. > Or are the "rules" not so clear-cut? I have read the UBL 2.0 NDR > and I am even more confused (i.e. doesn't [RED2] contradict > [ELD3]?)! No, it doesn't. ELD3 applies to all of the elements, whereas by RED2 only the document ABIE is in the document schema and all the others are in the common library. BTW, the UBL NDR editors have just finished up two years of polishing the NDR document and will be submitting it for a second public review shortly. I'll make sure that a notice gets posted here when it's available for review. Jon This message has passed through an insecure network. Please direct all enquiries to the message author. |
