[xsde-users] Error converting Adobe XFA Template schema

[Ryan Barr]

Hi, I am running into the following error when trying to convert an xsd.

error: type 'xs:anyType' specified as the base in simpleContent definition
must not have complex content

Adobe provides the various XFA schemas as Relax:Next Generation format.
Using TRANG I converted the rng file to an xsd file.

When I run xsde on the generated xsd file I get the error above. Below are
the pertinent xsd lines

<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchemaelementFormDefault="qualified"
targetNamespace="
http://www.xfa.org/schema/xfa-template/3.3/" xmlns:x="
http://www.xfa.org/schema/xfa-template/3.3/">
...
<xs:element name="boolean">
    <xs:complexType>
      <xs:simpleContent>
*        <xs:restriction base="xs:anyType">* <!-- xsde reports error on
this line. -->
          <xs:simpleType>
            <xs:union memberTypes="x:booleanContent">
              <xs:simpleType>
                <xs:restriction base="xs:token">
                  <xs:length value="0"/>
                </xs:restriction>
              </xs:simpleType>
            </xs:union>
          </xs:simpleType>
          <xs:attributeGroup ref="x:booleanContent"/>
        </xs:restriction>
      </xs:simpleContent>
    </xs:complexType>
</xs:element>

example usage is "xsde.exe cxx-hybrid --generate-parser template.xsd

thanks!
