[xsl] Specifying XSD version

["Lizzi, Vincent" <Vincent.Lizzi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This touches on something I've wondered about. Why must XSD version be a
configuration option instead of having a schema declare for itself which
version of XSD should be used? Shouldn't this decision be made by the schema
author and not by users of the schema?

For example, in XSLT the attribute <xsl:stylesheet version="2.0" is an
effective way to declare that the stylesheet expects the processor use XSLT
2.0. It seems as though it would be very useful to have the schema element
declare that the schema expects the processor to use XSD 1.1. The obvious way
might be this:

<xs:schema vc:minVersion="1.1" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";
xmlns:vc="http://www.w3.org/2007/XMLSchema-versioning";>

Does this method actually work to specify that a parser that supports both 1.0
and 1.1 should use 1.1?

Apologies for this being an off-topic post.

Vincent

Thank you, Michael and Liam,

Does someone know how to specify options for Saxon when executed from within
Oxygen?
