NAME

XML::Compile::Schema::NameSpaces - Connect name-spaces from schemas

INHERITANCE

SYNOPSIS

# Used internally by XML::Compile::Schema
my $nss = XML::Compile::Schema::NameSpaces->new;
$nss->add($schema);

DESCRIPTION

This module keeps overview on a set of namespaces, collected from various schema files. Per XML namespace, it will collect a list of fragments which contain definitions for the namespace, each fragment comes from a different source. These fragments are searched in reverse order when an element or type is looked up (the last definitions overrule the older definitions).

METHODS

Constructors

$obj->new(OPTIONS)

Accessors

$obj->add(SCHEMA, [SCHEMAS])

$obj->allSchemas

    Returns a list of all known schema instances.

$obj->find(KIND, ADDRESS|(URI,NAME))

    Lookup the definition for the specified KIND of definition: the name of a global element, global attribute, attributeGroup or model group. The ADDRESS is constructed as {uri}name or as seperate URI and NAME.

$obj->findID(ADDRESS|(URI,ID))

    Lookup the definition for the specified id, which is constructed as uri#id or as seperate URI and ID.

$obj->findSgMembers(TYPE|(URI,NAME))

    Lookup the substitutionGroup alternatives for a specific element, which is an TYPE (element full name) of form {uri}name or as seperate URI and NAME. Returned is a list of node info objects (HASHes)

$obj->list

    Returns the list of name-space URIs defined.

$obj->namespace(URI)

$obj->printIndex([FILEHANDLE], OPTIONS)

    Show all definitions from all namespaces, for debugging purposes, by default the selected. Additional OPTIONS are passed to XML::Compile::Schema::Instance::printIndex().

    Option   --Default
    namespace  <ALL>

    . namespace => URI|ARRAY-of-URI

      Show only information about the indicate namespaces.

    example:

    my $nss = $schema->namespaces;
    $nss->printIndex(\*MYFILE);
    $nss->printIndex(namespace => "my namespace");
    
    # types defined in the wsdl schema
    use XML::Compile::SOAP::Util qw/WSDL11/;
    $nss->printIndex(\*STDERR, namespace => WSDL11);

$obj->schemas(URI)

    We need the name-space; when it is lacking then import must help, but that must be called explictly.
