Summary0003308: Module Names
DescriptionThe mapping of XSD files and name spaces to TTCN-3 modules shall be handled analog to part 8 of the standard (IDL). I. e. in particular that the XSD file names shall have no influence on the mapping; the XSD namespaces shall be mapped (after some necessary name mangling) to TTCN-3 module names.

Proposed text:

"Every namespace used in an XSD Schema is mapped to a separate TTCN-3 module, containing the entities defined in the particular namespace. (The namespace URIs are mangled to syntactically correct TTCN-3 module names as described in clause 5.2.) This means that XSD import-statements (which allow the use of entities of another namespace) imply the generation of another module for the imported entities; XSD include-statements (which include entities, defined in another namespace, into the same namespace the include-statement appears in) lead to the generation of the included entities in the current module.
No maintenance effort shall result from changes of the internal structure of an XSD Schema which does not change its outside appearance (interface)."

Reasoning:

(A) This approach has already been proven suitable in the IDL-to-TTCN-3 mapping (part 8 of the standard). Handling analog things differently is not intuitive for the user.

(B) The XSD file names are part of the internal structure of a Schema; changes within this internal structure should not result in changes of the interface (e. g. TTCN-3 module names) of the generated TTCN-3 code as this would result in maintenance efforts for users of the generated code each time the internal structure of the Schema changes.

Agreed in general: add naming rule for generated TTCN-3 modules; it shall be the name resulted by applying $5.2 on the target namespace (resolves also the multiple target namespace problem), if exists, or on the default module name "No_target_namespace", if no target namespace is at place.

In case of an XML schema including the other they will have the same target namespace. Hence they will have the same module name. By numerical suffixes the module names can be made unique. It should be clarified in which order the name resolution is applied. Including module first, then the included one?

OK, the sentence is misleading. In fact both the including schema and the included schema shall be available for the converter, thus no need to generate a third, "included" schema. But we do not know in which order they are processed. As XSD allows circular includes, the documents cannot be arranged in a canonical order, e.g. acc. to the include hierarchy. Therefore we have no mean to specify which one shall be processed first. I propose to add a note, encouraging tool providers to use the order in which the XSD documents are provided to the tool and then by the order of generating new TTCN-3 modules. See ~v3.

Final version agreed with Jacob is in the file CR3308_3310-module names v7.doc. Changes added to master copy (v3.3.4).
