Adding a Global simpleType Component to an XML Schema File

See Also

You use a simpleType to define a simple type. A simpleType component specifies information and constraints about the values of attributes or text-only components. The parent of a global simpleType component is the schema component.

To add a global simpleType component:

  1. In the IDE, open the schema file where you want to add the global simpleType component.
  2. Do one of the following:
    The Simple Type dialog box opens.
  3. In the Name field, type the name of the simpleType.
  4. Select the Derivation Method for the simpleType component.
  5. If you selected Restriction or List as the derivation method, define the Base Type.
  6. Click OK.
    The IDE adds a node for the new simple type. The label of the node is the name you entered in the Name field.
