Class SymbolSpace

java.lang.Object
com.sun.tools.xjc.model.SymbolSpace

public class SymbolSpace extends Object
Symbol space for ID/IDREF. In XJC, the whole ID space is considered to be splitted into one or more "symbol space". For an IDREF to match an ID, we impose additional restriction to the one stated in the XML rec.

That is, XJC'll require that the IDREF belongs to the same symbol space as the ID. Having this concept allows us to assign more specific type to IDREF.

See the design document for detail.
