maxOccurs='unbounded'

I have the following xsd used to "Create Content" to XML:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!–W3C Schema generated by XMLSpy v2007 sp2 (http://www.altova.com)–>
<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
   <xs:element name="title" type="xs:normalizedString"/>
   <xs:element name="text" type="xs:string"/>
   <xs:element name="picture" type="xs:anyURI"/>
   <xs:element name="heading" type="xs:normalizedString"/>
   <xs:element name="document">
      <xs:complexType>
         <xs:sequence>
            <xs:element ref="ContentHeadingMain"/>
            <xs:element ref="ContentHeading"/>
            <xs:element ref="Features"/>
         </xs:sequence>
      </xs:complexType>
   </xs:element>
   <xs:element name="Features">
      <xs:complexType>
         <xs:sequence>
            <xs:element ref="heading"/>
            <xs:element ref="ContentFeature" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="unbounded"/>
         </xs:sequence>
      </xs:complexType>
   </xs:element>
   <xs:element name="ContentHeadingMain">
      <xs:complexType>
         <xs:attribute name="title" type="xs:normalizedString" use="required"/>
      </xs:complexType>
   </xs:element>
   <xs:element name="ContentHeading">
      <xs:complexType>
         <xs:sequence>
            <xs:element ref="title"/>
            <xs:element ref="text"/>
            <xs:element ref="picture"/>
         </xs:sequence>
      </xs:complexType>
   </xs:element>
   <xs:element name="ContentFeature">
      <xs:complexType>
         <xs:sequence>
            <xs:element ref="text"/>
            <xs:element ref="picture"/>

Notice the ContentFeature type is an "unbounded" occurance.  For some reason the "+" sign does not show up in the editor for the XML.  Is there something I'm missing?  Does that feature work for complex types?

Thank you for your help….

it should definitely be showing a +.  what version of the software are you using?

2.0 release…not sure what build….is there a way to verify?

hi - i'm reproducing this issue on the current development branch - so it's not just your install.  i've filed a jira issue for it (http://issues.alfresco.com/browse/WCM-508).  i'm guessing it's related to how the schema is constructed, but i'll have more information once the problem is fixed (which should be quite soon).

the problem has to do with how the schema to xforms converter deals with elements refs.  it is gonna be fixed in 2.1.  in the meantime, a workaround is to do this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!–W3C Schema generated by XMLSpy v2007 sp2 (http://www.altova.com)–>
<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">

   <xs:element name="text" type="xs:string"/>
   <xs:element name="picture" type="xs:anyURI"/>
   <xs:element name="heading" type="xs:normalizedString"/>
   <xs:element name="document">
      <xs:complexType>
         <xs:sequence>
            <xs:element ref="ContentHeadingMain"/>
            <xs:element ref="ContentHeading"/>
            <xs:element ref="Features"/>
         </xs:sequence>
      </xs:complexType>
   </xs:element>
   <xs:element name="Features">
      <xs:complexType>
         <xs:sequence>
            <xs:element ref="heading"/>
            <xs:element name="ContentFeature" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="unbounded">
              <xs:complexType>
                <xs:sequence>
                  <xs:element ref="text"/>
                  <xs:element ref="picture"/>
                </xs:sequence>
              </xs:complexType>
            </xs:element>
         </xs:sequence>
      </xs:complexType>
   </xs:element>
   <xs:element name="ContentHeadingMain">
      <xs:complexType>
         <xs:attribute name="title" type="xs:normalizedString" use="required"/>
      </xs:complexType>
   </xs:element>
   <xs:element name="ContentHeading">
      <xs:complexType>
         <xs:sequence>
            <xs:element ref="title"/>
            <xs:element ref="text"/>
            <xs:element ref="picture"/>
         </xs:sequence>
      </xs:complexType>
   </xs:element>
 
</xs:schema> ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

As a follow-up, this is fixed in our upcoming 2.1 Community release (due today):
