XML — How does the createType operation discover the element name?

  • Key: XML-4
  • Legacy Issue Number: 4435
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: NetAcquire Corporation ( Joachim Achtzehnter)
  • Summary:

    Section 2.4.2 on page 2-19 claims that by selecting a particular
    implementation of local interface XMLFactory it can 'return a Car
    valuetype when an element named "Car" is found in the document'. It is
    not at all clear how this can be possible given that the createType
    operation only has a 'type' parameter but not an element name
    parameter. How does the createType operation discover the element name?
