[relaxng-user] problems with trang making xsd, mixed="true"

[Sebastian Rahtz]

My schema has this:

  <rng:define name="docAuthor">
    <rng:element name="docAuthor">
      <rng:ref name="macro.phraseSeq"/>
      <rng:ref name="docAuthor.attributes"/>
    </rng:element>
  </rng:define>

where macro.phraseSeq is

  <rng:define name="macro.phraseSeq">
    <rng:zeroOrMore>
      <rng:ref name="macro.phrasegroup"/>
    </rng:zeroOrMore>
  </rng:define>


This translate with trang into

  <xsd:element name="docAuthor">
    <xsd:complexType>
      <xsd:complexContent>
        <xsd:extension base="ns1:macro.phraseSeq">
          <xsd:attributeGroup ref="ns1:docAuthor.attributes"/>
        </xsd:extension>
      </xsd:complexContent>
    </xsd:complexType>
  </xsd:element>

and

  <xsd:complexType name="macro.phraseSeq" mixed="true">
    <xsd:group minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded" 
ref="ns1:macro.phrasegroup"/>
  </xsd:complexType>

which looks fine. Most tests pass it OK.
But the Microsoft parser says "The derived type and the base type
must have the same content type" because docAuthor does not say
it is "mixed='true'".

Can anyone explain to me

 a) is Microsoft correct?
 b) whether I can fix this in any way, short of writing a transform of
 the XSD?

yours depressed by Microsoft again

Sebastian
