Specifying the xsd:param value

[spasala]

Hello All,

I have an xml element namely
<csharpAttr>"[DllImport("user32.dll", SetLastError=false,
ExactSpelling=false)]"</csharpAttr>
the value of tha element could be anything for example
<csharpAttr>"[Conditional("DEBUG"), Conditional("TEST1")]"
</csharpAttr>
now I want to create a schema for this "charpAttr" element .
So the idea is the value should always start with a "[" and end with
"]"
So how do I specify the
pattern value
in the following
<xs:simpleType name="charpAttrType">
<xs:restriction base="xs:string">
<xs:pattern value= ???????/>
</xs:restriction>
</xs:simpleType>
Or if any body could suggest an alternate way (probably a better way)
that would be awesome.
Thanks in advance

But it doesn't. Your first example starts and ends with a double-quote.
Your second example starts with a double-quote and ends with a newline
(white-space). If you declare the element content to start and end with
square brackets, both your examples will be invalid.

Thanks Peter,

I think its just issue the way its displayed here in the groups. Both
my samples end with double quotes

<csharpAttr>"[DllImport("user32.dll", SetLastError=false,
ExactSpelling=false)]"</csharpAttr>

<csharpAttr>"[Conditional("DEBUG"), Conditional("TEST1")]">
</csharpAttr>.

Now how do I specify the pattern value?
