Question 41
While editing this XML document in XMLSpy
you would like to change all "userID" elements into attributes with the name "uid". Which of the following approaches is the easiest method to achieve this?
A. Using the "Replace" command to find all elements with the name "userID" and rep lacing the name with "uid; then selecting each new element "uid" in either Grid or Text View and using the "Convert To --> Attribute" command on the "XML" menu to convert them into attributes one by one.
B. Right-clicking on the column header "userID" and choosing "Convert To --> Attribute" from the context-menu; then double-clicking on the column header "userID" and typing "uid" to change the name.
C. Switching to "Text View" and adding a new "uid" attribute to each "Person" element manually; then using Copy/Paste to copy the values from the "userID" elements to the new attributes one by one; then deleting all the "userID" elements one by one.
D. It is neither possible to change elements to attributes nor can you copy values from elements into attributes; one must manually delete all the elements and create new attributes and manually re-enter the content.
Question 42
You are in the process of architecting a new XML Schema to unify expense reports across your organization. Multiple departments have submitted example XML documents with their use-cases to assist in the process. How can you quickly create a first iteration of an XML Schema that matches all the XML use case documents that you have received?
A. Open each example document in XMLSpy and collect all information from the various example documents; create an outline of the XML Schema by hand; enter the XML Schema into XMLSpy using the XML Schema editor.
B. Open the first example document in XMLSpy and use the "Generate DTD/Schema" command to automatically create an XML Schema that matches the first example document; repeat the same process for all example documents; use the "Come Open File" command on the Tools menu to come all the schemas with each other and find out where the differences are; create a common schema manually based on the differences.
C. Write a JavaScript function that opens each XML example document and creates an XML Schema for it; then write a second JavaScript function that uses the "Merge Schema" command to sequentially merge each schema with the previous schemA
D. Create a project in XMLSpy and add all example XML documents to one folder; right-click on the folder and choose "Generate DTD/Schema" from the context menu; pick "W3C Schema" from the options dialog and click OK; XMLSpy automatically creates an XML Schema that captures a unified content model for all the example documents.
