XSD 1.0 gives a named model-group definition's content as
(annotation?, (all | choice | sequence)) -- exactly one compositor. The
allowedChildren set-membership check allowed any number, so an xs:group with two
compositors, or with none, was accepted. namedGroupErrors now enforces the
cardinality, gated on the node being a definition (has a name) so a group
reference is never flagged.
XSTS: invalid schemas accepted 977 to 956 (-21); valid schemas rejected held at
72; instance buckets unchanged.
An occurrence range like minOccurs="5" maxOccurs="2" is empty and illegal in
XSD, but the validator accepted it (only the individual values were checked).
occurrenceOrderErrors now compares the two on a particle that carries both: the
comparison is by canonical magnitude (sign and leading zeros stripped, length
then lexicographic), so it holds beyond a machine integer; maxOccurs="unbounded"
is never exceeded and an equal single-point range is allowed.
XSTS: invalid schemas accepted 997 to 977 (-20); valid schemas rejected held at

XSD 1.0 allows a complexType's content to be simpleContent, or complexContent,
or a model group followed by attributes, never a mix. The allowedChildren
set-membership check permitted illegal combinations, so a complexType with two
simpleContent, simpleContent beside a sequence, or two model groups was accepted.
complexTypeContentErrors now enforces, over the complexType's direct children:
at most one of simpleContent/complexContent; when one is present, no direct model
group and no direct attribute (those belong inside the extension/restriction);
and at most one model group. Only direct children are examined, so attributes
nested inside a derivation are not flagged.
XSTS: invalid schemas accepted 1051 to 997 (-54); valid schemas rejected held at

of the reference-walk external-definition check.
Every QName a schema names must resolve to a declared component or a built-in:
type/base/itemType/memberTypes to a type, element/attribute/group/attributeGroup
ref to the matching global component, and element substitutionGroup to a global
element. An undeclared reference was previously accepted at compile time and only
surfaced lazily during instance validation, if at all.
References are matched by local name, with the value trimmed (a QName attribute
is whiteSpace=collapse). The whole check is skipped when the document declares an
import/include/redefine, since the default compile does not load externals and
the pools would be incomplete; that guard is gated on the XSD namespace so a
foreign element named "import" does not trip it.
XSTS: invalid schemas accepted 1092 to 1051 (-41); valid schemas rejected held
at 72 (an interim version regressed one valid schema on a whitespace-padded
base=" xs:string ", fixed by trimming); instance buckets unchanged.
Extends the compile-time attribute-model check. A component's name must be a
valid NCName, the reference attributes type/base/ref/itemType/refer/
substitutionGroup must be lexical QNames, and memberTypes a list of QNames.
These were unchecked, so name="", name="123", name="a:b", or type=":_" left the
schema wrongly accepted.
Only the lexical form is checked (a QName's prefix is resolved elsewhere), so a
valid reference is never rejected; each of these attribute names has one type
throughout XSD, so checking by local name is safe.
XSTS: invalid schemas accepted 1190 to 1129 (-61); valid schemas rejected held
at 72 (no over-rejection); instance buckets unchanged.
The attribute-model sibling of the structural content-model check, folded into
the same schema-document walk. Enumerated attributes (form,
elementFormDefault, attributeFormDefault, use, processContents, mixed, abstract,
nillable) and the occurrence attributes (minOccurs a nonNegativeInteger,
maxOccurs a nonNegativeInteger or unbounded) are checked against their fixed
value space. An out-of-space value (use="foo", mixed="yes", minOccurs="-1") was
previously ignored and the schema accepted.
Each of these names has one meaning throughout XSD, so checking by local name is
safe. Only unprefixed attributes on XSD-namespace elements are checked, so a
foreign attribute is never flagged; values are trimmed before comparison.
XSTS: invalid schemas accepted 1313 to 1190 (-123); valid schemas rejected held
at 72 (no over-rejection); instance buckets unchanged.
The general mechanism for the structural tail of the schema-validity gap, in
place of hand-coding a rule per component. A data-driven table encodes the XSD
1.0 schema-for-schemas child content model; at compile time it rejects any
component child the model does not admit, more than one annotation (or an
annotation that is not first, except on schema/redefine, which allow several),
and an identity constraint missing its selector or field.
The walk visits only XSD-namespace elements and skips appinfo/documentation
foreign content, so foreign children are never flagged; restriction/extension
use the permissive union of their simple/complex/simpleContent contexts, so a
child valid in some context is never rejected. One table covers every component.
