Linking from one DFDL schema file to another
Add a link to a different schema.
Before you begin
Create two DFDL schema files.
Open the schema file that you want to add a link to.
About this task
Linking is needed when you have DFDL objects in one schema
file, and you want to refer to them in a different schema file. For
example, the first file contains a simple type, which an element in
the second file wants to use.
Procedure
In the Outline area, right-click Schema and select Add
an import or include.
Within the Add Schema Reference dialog that opens, browse
to the schema that you want to include or import.
The
namespaces of the two schema files determine whether to use the import or include option.
Target file has a target namespace
Target file has notarget namespace
Parent file has a target namespace
xsd:import
xsd:include1
Parent file has notarget namespace
xsd:import
xsd:include
1 When a target namespace file includes a notarget
namespace file, referencing an object in the target file from the
parent file causes the object to be present in the namespace of the
parent file.
