<schemaSpec>

<schemaSpec> (schema specification) generates a TEI-conformant schema and documentation for it.

startspecifies entry points to the schema, i.e. which elements may be used as the root of documents conforming to it.

ns(namespace) specifies the default namespace (if any) applicable to components of the schema.

<rng:ref name="data.namespace"/>
data.namespace
prefixspecifies a default prefix which will be prepended to all patterns relating to TEI elements, unless otherwise stated. This allows for external schemas to be mixed in which have elements of the same names as the TEI.

Colons, although permitted inside the value, will cause an invalid schema to be generated.

Example
<schemaSpec prefix="TEI_" ident="testsvg" start="TEI svg">
 <moduleRef source="tei:current" key="header"/>
 <moduleRef key="core"/>
 <moduleRef key="drama"/>

</schemaSpec>

This schema combines elements from the current versions of the drama and core modules, the current release version of the header module, and elements from an existing RELAXNG schema available from the URL indicated.

Note
A schemaSpec combines references to modules, individual element or macro declarations, and specification groups together to form a unified schema. The processing of the schemaSpec element must resolve any conflicts amongst the declarations it contains or references. Different ODD processors may generate schemas and documentation using different concrete syntaxes.
