RE: Notification Schema Bug

["Sharon Chisholm" <schishol@nortel.com>]

Hi

If we go this way, we should also add a little note somewhere that
content defined as notifications can also be retrieved via the <get>
operation. This allows a single definition of content instead of forcing
everything to be defined twice like SNMP did. It becomes a little less
obvious when it is an extension of the notification.

Subject: Notification Schema Bug

Hi,

The notification element definition is obsolete, based on the decision
to remove the parameters from the ReplayCompleteNotification.
There is no <data> element in the notification, like <rpc-reply>.
The <notification> element is a wrapper, just like the <rpc> element.
This allows proper extension by any organization.  The XSD for the
<notification> element must be done the same way as the <rpc> element.

Current text: notification-06: page 21:

     <xs:complexType name="NotificationType">
        <xs:sequence>
          <xs:element name="data" type="netconf:dataInlineType" />
        </xs:sequence>
     </xs:complexType>

     <xs:element name="notification" type="NotificationType"/>


Proposed replacement text for page 21:

     <xs:complexType name="NotificationContentType"/>

     <xs:element name="notificationContent"
                 type="NotificationContentType" abstract="true"/>

     <xs:complexType name="NotificationType">
       <xs:sequence>
         <xs:element ref="notificationContent"/>
       </xs:sequence>
     </xs:complexType>

     <xs:element name="notification" type="NotificationType"/>


The replayCompleteNotification can be defined in another XSD and
namespace:

     <xs:complexType name="ReplayCompleteNotificationType">
       <xs:complexContent>
         <xs:extension base="NotificationContentType"/>
       </xs:complexContent>
     </xs:complexType>

     <xs:element name="replayCompleteNotification"
                 type="ReplayCompleteNotificationType"
                 substitutionGroup="notificationContent"/>


Of course, a notification with parameters would not have an empty
<extension> like this one.
