Is there any difference between limiting the occurrences of an element in the element
tag or the sequence
tag, what would be the best place to do it? Or it's just a matter of style?
Example:
<xs:element name="Provider">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:sequence minOcurrs="1" maxOccurs="unbounded">
<xs:element ref="Distribuitor"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
or
<xs:element name="Provider">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element ref="Distribuitor" minOcurrs="1" maxOccurs="unbounded"/&g开发者_如何学Ct;
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
I would say to put it on the element instead because the sequence specifies the order in which the elements must appear. I believe if you put it on the elements themselves, you are being more clear on what you want. I don't think in your case it makes a difference with 1 element, but imagine if you had 10 elements for example and each element could have a different number of minOcurrs and maxOccurs, you probably would want to specify it on each element then instead of at the sequence level.
