case-insensitive key in xsd
I have an XSD embedded into an XML like this:
<Replacements>
<xs:schema elementFormDefault="qualified" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<xs:element name="Replacem开发者_高级运维ents">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded" ref="Replace" />
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
<xs:key name="ReplaceKey">
<xs:selector xpath="./Replace"/>
<xs:field xpath="@old"/>
</xs:key>
</xs:element>
<xs:element name="Replace">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:attribute name="old" type="AnythingButLowerCase" use="required" />
<xs:attribute name="new" type="xs:string" use="required" />
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
<xs:simpleType name="AnythingButLowerCase">
<xs:restriction base="xs:string">
<xs:pattern value="[^a-z]+"/>
</xs:restriction>
</xs:simpleType>
</xs:schema>
<Replace old="A1020____9" new="A1020"/>
<Replace old="a1020____9" new="A1020"/>
</Replacements>
I've used xs:key to define a unique-key on "old" attribute of Replace elements.
my problem is I want this key to be CASE-INSENSITIVE. I've read so many documents indicating I can use xsd functions like upper-case or translate to solve this, but if I write something like<xs:field xpath="upper-case(@old)"/>
VS2010 gives me a warning like this:
'upper-case(@old)' is an invalid XPath for selector or field.
What is it I'm doing wrong?
Thanks :)
The correct XPath function is "upper-case", not "upper case". Just add in the hyphen.
OK!
I got that!
Using functions in an xpath for a xs:field is not allowed.
The workaround for what I was seeking is to define a simpleType and put a restriction there not allowing lower-case letters.
Something like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes" ?>
<Replacements>
<xs:schema elementFormDefault="qualified" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<xs:element name="Replacements">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded" ref="Replace" />
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
<xs:key name="ReplaceKey">
<xs:selector xpath="./Replace"/>
<xs:field xpath="@old"/>
</xs:key>
</xs:element>
<xs:element name="Replace">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:attribute name="old" type="AnythingButLowerCase" use="required" />
<xs:attribute name="new" type="xs:string" use="required" />
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
<xs:simpleType name="AnythingButLowerCase">
<xs:restriction base="xs:string">
<xs:pattern value="[^a-z]+"/>
</xs:restriction>
</xs:simpleType>
</xs:schema>
<Replace old="A1020____9" new="A1020"/>
<Replace old="a1020____9" new="A1020"/>
</Replacements>
Now this serves as what I want it to.
