XML Schema question re: duplicate element definitions when using elementFormDefault="qualified"
Is this valid? <schema xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" targetNamespace="urn:example:duplicateElements" elementFormDefault="qualified"> <complexType name="foo"> <sequence> <element name="foobar" type="string"/> </sequence> </complexType> <complexType name="bar"> <sequence> <element name="foobar" type="string"/> </sequence> </complexType> </schema> Note two elements named "foobar". XML Schema spec [1] says: "Locally scoped attribute and element declarations are special with regard to symbol spaces. Every complex type definition defines its own local attribute and element declaration symbol spaces, where these symbol spaces are distinct from each other and from any of the other symbol spaces. So, for example, two complex type definitions having the same target namespace can contain a local attribute declaration for the unqualified name "priority", or contain a local element declaration for the name "address", without conflict or necessary relation between the two." But given that the schema specifies elementFormDefault="qualified", are the "foobar" elements locally scoped? [1] http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-1/#concepts-nameSymbolSpaces Thanks, Anne
