Understanding XML Schema - The Next Step (
Page 12 of 12 )
And that's
just about it for the moment. While you now know enough about the basics of XML
Schema to begin using it in your XML development activities, you should be aware
that the topics covered today are merely the tip of the iceberg. The XML Schema
specification provides for a number of other powerful capabilities (including
inheritance and grouping) and you should spend some time reading the official
specification if you intend to get serious about the subject.
If you're interested, drop me a line and tell me if you'd like to read about
these advanced capabilities in another article - and while you're at it, take
a look at the following links as well:
