Name

xs:NOTATION

Synopsis

The xs:NOTATION type restricts a value to those qualified names declared as notations using an xs:notation element in the schema. This is an abstract type. In other words, you cannot directly declare that an element or attribute has type xs:NOTATION. Instead, you must first derive a new type from xs:NOTATION, most commonly by enumeration, and then declare that your element or attribute possesses the subtype. Constraining facets that apply to xs:NOTATION are length, minLength, maxLength, pattern, enumeration, and whiteSpace.
