Options - Module Settings - XML Schema Editor - XML Schema to XML
You use the
XML Schema to XML page of the
Options dialog box specify settings that affect how Stylus Studio creates an XML document from an XML Schema. Stylus Studio uses these settings when you
- Run the XML Schema to XML document wizard
- View an XML Schema node in the XML Schema diagram as XML
Fields
Preferred recursion depth
The level to which you want self-referencing elements in the XML document to recurse.
Number of elements that triggers a warning
Use this field to set a soft limit on the number of elements Stylus Studio generates. When this limit is reached, Stylus Studio displays a warning message. You can continue generating XML, or cancel the generation operation at this time.
Number of Repeating Elements
You use the
Number of Repeating Elements fields to control the number of repeating elements Stylus Studio generates in an XML document based on an XML Schema.
Preferred - The number of repeating elements you would like Stylus Studio to generate. This number is used when its value falls between the
minOccurs and
maxOccurs values defined for the element in the XML Schema. If this number is
less than the
minOccurs value, the
minOccurs number of elements is generated, ensuring that the resulting document is valid. If this number is
greater than the
maxcOccurs value, the
maxOccurs number of elements.
Maximum - This value is used when the
Preferred value is out of the range of the
minOccurs and
maxOccurs values (less than
minOccurs or greater than
maxOccurs), and
Maximum is less than
maxOccurs.
Optional Elelements and Attributes
Whether or not you want to generate optional elements and attributes specified in the XML Schema, and whether or not you want to generate comments.
Choices and Substitution Groups
By default, Stylus Studio generates all choices and substitutions specified in the XML Schema, commenting (
//) all but the first one to ensure that the generated XML document is valid. If you prefer, you can generate
- All choices and substitutions, without comments. This will result in an invalid XML document
- Only the first choice and substitution specified in a group
