@localTypeDeclarationReference

[SJagodzinski]

Local type declaration reference

Add new optional attribute @localTypeDeclarationReference with data type IDREF in all elements alongside the attribute @localType

With @localTypeDeclarationReference a direct link to a local type declaration element within cpf/control/localTypeDeclaration can be provided. The attribute should always be used when @localType is used, in order to link to the local type definition.

Summary: Use @localTypeDeclarationReference to provide a direct link to a <localTypeDeclaration> element within <control> from another element using @localType within the EAC-CPF instance. @localTypeDeclarationReference should always be used when @localType is used, in order to link to the local type definition.
Data type: IDREFS

Tested as part of Schema Team's schema testing:

• @localTypeDeclarationReference is an optional attribute for (currently) 49 elements (<abstract>, <address>, <addressLine>, <biogHist>, <chronItem>, <chronItemSet>, <chronList>, <componentEntry>, <contact>, <contactLine>, <date>, <dateRange>, <dateSet>, <event>, <existDates>, <fromDate>, <function>, <functions>, <generalContext>, <identity>, <identityId>, <item>, <languagesUsed>, <languageUsed>, <legalStatus>, <legalStatuses>, <list>, <localControl>, <localDescription>, <localDescriptions>, <mandate>, <mandates>, <nameEntry>, <nameEntrySet>, <occupation>, <occupations>, <otherAgencyCode>, <otherEntityType>, <otherRecordId>, <part>, <place>, <placeName>, <places>, <relationType>, <representation>, <span>, <structureOrGenealogy>, <targetRole>, <toDate>)
  • That adds <identity> and <structureOrGenealogy> to the elements listed in the solution documentation above. @SJagodzinski seeing that these two have @localType in EAC-CPF 1.0 and we decided to keep @localType where available outside of <control>, I'm assuming this is correct. Could you please confirm?
• Its data type is IDREFS
• It's always available together with the attribute @localType.

The above applies to both schemas, RNG and XSD.

@ailie-s the data type has recently changed to IDREFS in order to allow for several IDs to be pointed to within one attribute.

Yes, I that's correct.

@SJagodzinski thanks for the confirmation.

With this, the attribute is ready.
