I want to model Xml such as
....... <mood1> <positive>true</positive> <probability>23</probability> </mood1> <mood2> <positive>false</positive> <probability>86</probability> </mood2> ......... in an xml schema, currently I have
<xs:element name="mood1"> <xs:complexType> <xs:sequence> <xs:element ref="category"/> </xs:sequence> </xs:complexType> <xs:element name="mood2"> <xs:complexType> <xs:sequence> <xs:element ref="category"/> </xs:sequence> </xs:complexType> <xs:element name="category"> <xs:complexType> <xs:sequence> <xs:element name="positive" type="xs:boolean"/> <xs:element name="probability" type="xs:float"/> </xs:sequence> </xs:complexType> but of course that would model having an additional unneccessary category element such as
....... <mood1> <category> <positive>true</positive> <probability>23</probability> </category> </mood1> <mood2> <category> <positive>false</positive> <probability>86</probability> </category> </mood2> ......... which I dont want.
I could do
<xs:element name="mood1"> <xs:complexType> <xs:sequence> <xs:element name="positive" type="xs:boolean"/> <xs:element name="probability" type="xs:float"/> </xs:sequence> </xs:complexType> <xs:element name="mood2"> <xs:complexType> <xs:sequence> <xs:element name="positive" type="xs:boolean"/> <xs:element name="probability" type="xs:float"/> </xs:sequence> </xs:complexType> But then I have to keep on repeating the same definition (and there is more than just mood1 and mood2).
I want to say mood1 is a subtype of category but I don't know how to, its worth noting mood1 and mood2 do have identical elements but they are not the same thing.
