Interface Summary

AtomicType	Marker interface for atomic types (these are either built-in atomic types or user-defined atomic types).
ComplexType	A complex type as defined in XML Schema: either a user-defined complex type, or xs:anyType.
ItemType	ItemType is an interface that allows testing of whether an Item conforms to an expected type.
ListType	Interface representing a simple type of variety List
SchemaComponent	This is a marker interface that represents any "schema component" as defined in the XML Schema specification.
SchemaDeclaration	This is a marker interface that acts as a surrogate for an object representing an element or attribute declaration.
SchemaType	SchemaType is an interface implemented by all schema types: simple and complex types, built-in and user-defined types.
SchemaURIResolver	A SchemaURIResolver is used when resolving references to schema documents.
SimpleType	This interface represents a simple type, which may be a built-in simple type, or a user-defined simple type.

Class Summary

AnyItemType	An implementation of ItemType that matches any item (node or atomic value)
AnySimpleType	This class has a singleton instance which represents the XML Schema built-in type xs:anySimpleType
AnyType	This class has a singleton instance which represents the XML Schema built-in type xs:anyType, also known as the urtype.
BuiltInAtomicType	This class represents a built-in atomic type, which may be either a primitive type (such as xs:decimal or xs:anyURI) or a derived type (such as xs:ID or xdt:dayTimeDuration).
BuiltInListType	This class is used to implement the built-in list types NMTOKENS, ENTITIES, IDREFS.
BuiltInSchemaFactory	This class is used to construct Schema objects containing all the built-in types: that is, the types defined in the "xs" and "xdt" namespaces.
ExternalObjectType	This class represents the type of an external Java object returned by an extension function, or supplied as an external variable/parameter.
Type	This class contains static information about types and methods for constructing type codes.
TypeHierarchy	This class exists to provide answers to questions about the type hierarchy.
Untyped	This class has a singleton instance which represents the complex type xdt:untyped, used for elements that have not been validated.

Exception Summary

SchemaException	An exception that identifies an error in reading, parsing, or validating a schema.
UnresolvedReferenceException	This exception occurs when an attempt is made to dereference a reference from one schema component to another, if the target of the reference cannot be found.
ValidationException	This exception indicates a failure when validating an instance against a type defined in a schema.
