[Gerhard Pfau <GPFAU@de.ibm.com>]

Dear all,

pls. find below a proposal for resolving
ISSUE BP-25 (http://www.osoa.org/jira/browse/BP-25):


1. Extend type tAttachmentInfo
with the element contentCategory: 

<xsd:element
name="attachmentInfo"
type="tAttachmentInfo"
/>
<xsd:complexType
name="tAttachmentInfo">
  <xsd:sequence>
    <xsd:element
name="name"
type="xsd:string"
/>
    <xsd:element
name="accessType"
type="xsd:string"
/>
    <xsd:element
name="contentType"
type="xsd:string"
/>
    <xsd:element
name="contentCategory"
type="xsd:string"
/>
    <xsd:element
name="attachedAt"
type="xsd:dateTime"
/>
    <xsd:element
name="attachedBy"
type="htd:tUser"
/>
    <xsd:any
minOccurs="0"
maxOccurs="unbounded"
/>
  </xsd:sequence>
</xsd:complexType>

2. Add the following spec text (blue)

[...]

The contentType of an attachment can be any valid XML schema type, including xsd:any, or any MIME type. The attachment data is assumed to be of that type.

The contentCategory of an attachment is a string used to qualify the contentType. While contentType contains the type of the attachment, the contentCategory specifies the type system used when defining the contentType. Possible values for contentCategory are "MIME" and "XSD-Schema". The set of values is extensible.

The accessType element indicates if the attachment is specified inline or by reference.  [...]

3. Define string constants to be used as values for contentCategory:

Add spec text to define the following constants for contentCategory:

• "MIME"
• "XML-Schema"

Here is the text again as PDF, in case
the colors and fonts don't make it: 


As Wednesday this week is the first
