Yes, you treat the terminator as belonging to the sequence. <xsd:sequence dfdl:separator="some-separator-here” dfdl:separatorSuppressionPolicy="anyEmpty" dfdl:separatorPosition="prefix" dfdl:terminator="some-terminator-here”> <xsd:element name="BodyPart" dfdl:lengthKind="delimited" minOccurs= "1" maxOccurs="unbounded" type="xsd:string" dfdl:occursCountKind= "implicit"/> </xsd:sequence> Regards Steve Hanson Architect, IBM Data Format Description Language (DFDL) Co-Chair, OGF DFDL Working Group IBM SWG, Hursley, UK smh@uk.ibm.com tel:+44-1962-815848 From: "Garriss Jr., James P." <jgarriss@mitre.org> To: "dfdl-wg@ogf.org" <dfdl-wg@ogf.org>, Date: 24/06/2013 18:08 Subject: [DFDL-WG] Can I specify a terminator for the last element in a sequence? Sent by: dfdl-wg-bounces@ogf.org I have a repeating element, one that can occur 1 to unbounded times. The elements are separated by a prefixed separator, like so: <xsd:sequence dfdl:separator="some-separator-here” dfdl:separatorSuppressionPolicy="anyEmpty" dfdl:separatorPosition="prefix"
<xsd:element name="BodyPart" dfdl:lengthKind="delimited" minOccurs= "1" maxOccurs="unbounded" type="xsd:string" dfdl:occursCountKind= "implicit"/> </xsd:sequence> The last element (and only the last element) has a terminator. Is there a way in DFDL to specify that final terminator?-- dfdl-wg mailing list dfdl-wg@ogf.org https://www.ogf.org/mailman/listinfo/dfdl-wg Unless stated otherwise above: IBM United Kingdom Limited - Registered in England and Wales with number 741598.
