Facet Type Properties in XML Schemas

Facet types have the properties described in Table 82:

Table 82. Facet Type Properties
Property	Description
`Facet Type`	Must be one of the following: `enumeration`, `fractionDigits`, `length`, `maxExclusive`, `maxInclusive`, `maxLength`, `minExclusive`, `minInclusive`, `minLength`, `pattern`, `totalDigits`, or `whiteSpace`.
`Fixed`	A Boolean value that indicates whether you can further restrict the simpleType with this same facet and a different value. The default is `false`. That is, the default is that you can apply the same facet more than once. For example, suppose you specify the following definition: <xsd:simpleType name="zip"> <xsd:restriction base="xsd:string"> <xsd:length value="5" fixed="true"/> </xsd:restriction> </xsd:simpleType> This defines a postal code whose length is 5 characters. You can further restrict this simpleType with, for example, the `pattern` facet so that the first three characters must always be "`100`", but you cannot further restrict the `length` facet when the `Fixed` property is set to `true`. Facet types of `pattern` and `enumeration` do not have the `Fixed` property.
`Value`	Varies according to the facet type. See About Facet Types for simpleTypes.
