XmlSchemaComplexContent Class

Definition

Represents the complexContent element from XML Schema as specified by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). This class represents the complex content model for complex types. It contains extensions or restrictions on a complex type that has either only elements or mixed content.

C#
public class XmlSchemaComplexContent : System.Xml.Schema.XmlSchemaContentModel
Inheritance

Examples

The following example creates a complexContent element.

C#
using System;
using System.Xml;
using System.Xml.Schema;

class XMLSchemaExamples
{
    public static void Main()
    {

        XmlSchema schema = new XmlSchema();

        // <xs:complexType name="address">
        XmlSchemaComplexType address = new XmlSchemaComplexType();
        schema.Items.Add(address);
        address.Name = "address";

        // <xs:sequence>
        XmlSchemaSequence sequence = new XmlSchemaSequence();
        address.Particle = sequence;

        // <xs:element name="name"   type="xs:string"/>
        XmlSchemaElement elementName = new XmlSchemaElement();
        sequence.Items.Add(elementName);
        elementName.Name = "name";
        elementName.SchemaTypeName = new XmlQualifiedName("string", "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema");

        // <xs:element name="street"   type="xs:string"/>
        XmlSchemaElement elementStreet = new XmlSchemaElement();
        sequence.Items.Add(elementStreet);
        elementStreet.Name = "street";
        elementStreet.SchemaTypeName = new XmlQualifiedName("string", "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema");

        // <xs:element name="city"   type="xs:string"/>
        XmlSchemaElement elementCity = new XmlSchemaElement();
        sequence.Items.Add(elementCity);
        elementCity.Name = "city";
        elementCity.SchemaTypeName = new XmlQualifiedName("string", "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema");

        // <xs:complexType name="USAddress">
        XmlSchemaComplexType USAddress = new XmlSchemaComplexType();
        schema.Items.Add(USAddress);
        USAddress.Name = "USAddress";

        // <xs:complexContent>
        XmlSchemaComplexContent complexContent = new XmlSchemaComplexContent();
        USAddress.ContentModel = complexContent;

        // <xs:extension base="address">
        XmlSchemaComplexContentExtension extensionAddress = new XmlSchemaComplexContentExtension();
        complexContent.Content = extensionAddress;
        extensionAddress.BaseTypeName = new XmlQualifiedName("address");

        // <xs:sequence>
        XmlSchemaSequence sequence2 = new XmlSchemaSequence();
        extensionAddress.Particle = sequence2;

        // <xs:element name="state" type="xs:string"/>
        XmlSchemaElement elementUSState = new XmlSchemaElement();
        sequence2.Items.Add(elementUSState);
        elementUSState.Name = "state";
        elementUSState.SchemaTypeName = new XmlQualifiedName("string", "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema");

        // <xs:element name="zipcode" type="xs:positiveInteger"/>
        XmlSchemaElement elementZipcode = new XmlSchemaElement();
        sequence2.Items.Add(elementZipcode);
        elementZipcode.Name = "zipcode";
        elementZipcode.SchemaTypeName = new XmlQualifiedName("positiveInteger", "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema");

        XmlSchemaSet schemaSet = new XmlSchemaSet();
        schemaSet.ValidationEventHandler += new ValidationEventHandler(ValidationCallbackOne);
        schemaSet.Add(schema);
        schemaSet.Compile();

        XmlSchema compiledSchema = null;

        foreach (XmlSchema schema1 in schemaSet.Schemas())
        {
            compiledSchema = schema1;
        }

        XmlNamespaceManager nsmgr = new XmlNamespaceManager(new NameTable());
        nsmgr.AddNamespace("xs", "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema");
        compiledSchema.Write(Console.Out, nsmgr);
    }

    public static void ValidationCallbackOne(object sender, ValidationEventArgs args)
    {

        Console.WriteLine(args.Message);
    }
}
