You can document your schemata in an XML syntax with the 'annotation' element.

It has two element children:

• xs:appinfo - typically for additional application information (e.g. relational tables, constraint rules, Java method mappings).

• xs:documentation - intended to contain the human-readable documentation for the construct.

You can put anything inside these elements (e.g. XHTML).

Example:

<xs:annotation>
<xs:appinfo><java:method name="setBingo"/></appinfo>
<xs:documentation xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<p>This element represents a bingo game.</p>
</xs:documentation>
</xs:annotation>
