Hello, I would like to comment a XML-Type in a XSD-Schema multiple times, so that i can compile multiple times and only get the output for one specific comment.

So actually I want to make exactly the same as is already possible with languages. But instead of making 2 comments in english and french for example, i would like to name them Context1 and Context2 or something. Unfortuanately i cant add new languages, or fantasy-languages, so i cant use this feature.

 

Is there another way to do this? build-Flags? I couldnt figure out how to do this with build flags..

 

Thany a lot in advance for any advice!

  Using Build Flags in combination with Build Profiles would be the way to do this. In this scenario you would create 2 Build Flags (i.e. Context1 & Context2) and apply the relevant Build Flag to the relevant comment, then you would create 2 Build Profiles (i.e. Context1 & Context2) and define a Rule that would include only content marked by the matching Build Flag or content not marked with any flag.

  You can find a tutorial movie on using Build Flags here: http://www.innovasys.com/movies/viewmoviefeed.aspx?id=57bb26bd-a62c-452c-92ab-b9b449ee27e3

  Hello, thank you for the answer.

  But how do i make the XSD-File then? Because I want every information in the XSD-File, I Edit the XSD-File only as Text in VisualStudio. 

   

  I think of something like this:

        <xs:element name="SupplierID" type="xs:int">
          <xs:annotation>
            <xs:documentation source="Context1">Documentation for Context 1</xs:documentation>
            <xs:documentation source="Context2">Documentation for Context 2</xs:documentation>
          </xs:annotation>
        </xs:element>

  How is that possible?

  ok, so i think this will not work.. so i tried with languages, en for context1 and de for context2, like this:

   

    <xs:complexType name="DeliveryInfo">

      <xs:annotation>

        <xs:documentation xml:lang="en">context1, blabla</xs:documentation>

    <xs:documentation xml:lang="de">context2, blabla</xs:documentation>

      </xs:annotation>

      <xs:sequence>

        <xs:element name="SupplierID" type="xs:int">

          <xs:annotation xml:lang="en">

            <xs:documentation>context1, blabla</xs:documentation>

          </xs:annotation>

         <xs:annotation xml:lang="de">

            <xs:documentation>context2, blabla</xs:documentation>

   

  unfortunately this also does not work, i cant just compile in english or german, and then see context1 or context2..

   

  can anybody help me please?
