The customization values in the <nodeBindings> binding declaration have node scope. These
refer to individual type or element definitions within a schema. It
is also possible to reference local elements within complex types
for customization.
Usage
<nodeBindings name | node=”xs:string”> [<prefix>xs:token</prefix>] [<nameXmlTransform>. . .</nameXmlTransform>] [<array [maxSize=”xs:nonNegativeInteger”/>]] [<isBigInteger/>] [<isDynamic/>] [<ctype> string | numeric </ctype>] [<noPatternTest/>] [<numericFormat>. . .</numericFormat>] [<nodeBindings>. . .<nodeBindings>] ... </nodeBindings>
The following attributes are defined for
<nodeBindings> node:
| name: | This attribute selects a node for configuration processing based on its QName. |
| node: | An XPath 1.0 expression that identifies the schema node within the referenced schema with which to associate binding declarations |
The following customization values are defined in node scope:
| nameXmlTransform | This is used to perform more accurate XML names transformation than prefix allows. See Section “Advanced XML Names Transformation” for further details. |
| prefix | This is used to specify a prefix that is prepended to all XML names including type names and global element names to form C#/Java type and variables names. It should be a legal C#/Java identifier. |
| array | This specifies that an array should be used instead of a linked list for repeated elements. The maxSize attribute specifies the maximum size of the array. The default value if not specified is 100. |
| isBigInteger | By default, XBinder represents xsd:integer as an int. This option specifies that System.decimal or java.lang.BigInteger should be used instead. This qualifier can be applied to either an integer or complex type. In the latter case, all integer elements within the complex type are flagged as big integers. |
|
cstype javatype | This is used to control the C#/Java type
generated by the XBinder compiler. These elements
also occur in the context of a typemap and
they are discussed in the section called “
<typemap>
Declaration
”. |
| noPatternTest | If type uses a pattern facet, this may be used to turn off the pattern match test. |
| numericFormat | This specifies a node-level format for encoding
of numeric values. Affects values of
xsd:double, xsd:decimal,
and xsd:float types. See the section called “XML Numeric Values Format Specification”. |
| nodeBindings | Nested <nodeBindings>
declarations to allow more accurate references to
enclosed elements, such as local elements inside
groups (sequence,
all, choice, group, etc). |
