BPMN21 — XML Schema: Usage of xsd:anyAttribute instead of xsd:attribute

Open Closed All
  • Key: BPMN21-315
  • Legacy Issue Number: 16632
  • Status: open  
  • Source: IHK Gesellschaft fuer Informationsverarbeitung mbH ( Sven Joerges)
  • Summary:

    Table 8.3 ("Definitions XML schema") on page 54 contains the following two lines:

    <xsd:anyAttribute name="exporter" type="xsd:ID"/>
    <xsd:anyAttribute name="exporterVersion" type="xsd:ID"/>

    As the usage of the "name" attribute in combination with the "xsd:anyAttribute" element makes no sense, those lines should be changed to:

    <xsd:attribute name="exporter" type="xsd:ID"/>
    <xsd:attribute name="exporterVersion" type="xsd:ID"/>

    As the XSD-Files given at www.omg.org/spec/BPMN/2.0/ also use "xsd:attribute" for those lines, I suppose this is just a copy&paste error in the specification document.
