<constraintSpec>

<constraintSpec> (constraint on schema) contains a formal constraint, typically expressed in a rule-based schema language, to which a construct must conform in order to be considered valid [23.5 Element Specifications]

type⚓︎ characterizes the constraintSpec element in some sense; used to indicate when a constraintSpec warns about a deprecated construct.

Note

A child constraint is required when the mode attribute has the value replace or add (or is not specified, as add is the default). No child elements are permitted when the mode attribute has the value delete. At least one child element is required when the mode attribute has the value change.

Exemple

This constraint uses Schematron to enforce the presence of the spanTo attribute (which comes from an attribute class) on the addSpan element:

<constraintSpec ident="demo-c1"
 scheme="schematron">

 <desc>Enforce the presence of the <att>spanTo</att> attribute</desc>
 <constraint>
  <sch:rule context="tei:addSpan">
   <sch:assert test="@spanTo">The spanTo= attribute of <sch:name/> is required.</sch:assert>
  </sch:rule>
 </constraint>
</constraintSpec>
Exemple
<constraintSpec ident="demo-c2"
 scheme="schematron">

 <desc>Implement an accessibility rule which says that pictures
   should have textual explanations</desc>
 <constraint>
  <sch:rule context="tei:figure">
   <sch:report test="not( tei:figDesc | tei:head )">You should
       provide information in a figure from which
       we can construct an alt attribute in HTML</sch:report>
  </sch:rule>
 </constraint>
</constraintSpec>
Exemple

This constraint uses SPITBOL (a language which is not expressed in XML) to check whether the title and author are identical:

<constraintSpec ident="author_ne_title"
 scheme="SPITBOL">

 <constraint>
   (output = leq(title,author) "title and author cannot be the same")
 </constraint>
</constraintSpec>

<sch:report test="child::*">This constraintSpec element has a mode= of "delete" even though it has child elements. Change the mode= to "add", "change", or "replace", or remove the child elements.</sch:report>
</sch:rule>
<sch:rule context="tei:constraintSpec[ @mode eq 'change']">
<sch:assert test="child::*">This constraintSpec element has a mode= of "change", but does not have any child elements. Specify child elements, or change the mode= to "delete".</sch:assert>
