attributes Property

MSXML 5.0 SDK

Microsoft XML Core Services (MSXML) 5.0 for Microsoft Office - SOM Reference

attributes Property

Returns an ISchemaItemCollection object. This collection contains the top-level ISchemaAttribute objects for the XML Schema. The ISchemaAttribute interface is used to further examine the collection of attribute objects.

Example

This example uses attributes from the ISchema.attributes property.

The VBScript example below uses the following XML Schema document.

<?xml version='1.0'?>
<xsd:schema xmlns:xsd='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema' >
  <xsd:attribute name='attr1' type='xsd:string' />
  <xsd:attribute name='attr2' type='xsd:date' />
</xsd:schema>

The following is the VBScript example.

Dim oSchemaCache as New XMLSchemaCache
Dim oSchema as ISchema
Dim oAttributes as ISchemaAttribute
Dim nsTarget as String

nsTarget = "http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#"
oSchemaCache.add nsTarget, "po.xsd"
Set oSchema = oSchemaCache.getSchema(nsTarget)

For Each oAttribute in oSchema.attributes
   msgbox oAttribute.name
Next

The following VBScript example shows how to list the top-level <attribute> declarations.

Set oSchemaCache = CreateObject("Msxml2.XMLSchemaCache.5.0")
oSchemaCache.add "", "po.xsd"
Set oSchema = oSchemaCache.getSchema("")

For Each oAttribute in oSchema.attributes
   WScript.Echo oAttribute.name
Next
