Attached is updated proposal which incorporates Steve's comments..



The main issue to resolve is given that a variable can only be set once should a setVariable for the same variable on an element or element reference override the setVariable on a simpleType of element declaration or is it an error to have a setVariable for the same variable?

Other points of interest

Non-format annotations cannot be put in scope on a complex type.

[DFDL-WG] Non-format annotation scoping rules.






Attached are the proposed rules for non-format annotation scoping.



As part of the exercise I had to clarify which annotations are permitted on each schema object so please review that table.

Of particular interest are

1.        Annotations put in scope on a xs:complexType
2.        Assert/Discriminator on xs:sequence, xs:choice and xs:any
3.        Hidden on an empty sequence only
4.        DefineVariable on schema and sequence only to define the scope of the variable.
