2005-01-06 00620, 2005

err, I think the extension element needs an attribute to identify it
2005-01-06 00642, 2005
21:02 PM
yalaforge
otherwise different extensions might clash
2005-01-06 00657, 2005
21:02 PM

to tell the diff between playlist and track level exts?
2005-01-06 00608, 2005
21:03 PM
yalaforge
<extension type="URI>...</extension>
2005-01-06 00623, 2005
21:03 PM

no to tell the difference between extensions by different vendors
2005-01-06 00651, 2005

oh, yes!
2005-01-06 00605, 2005

2005-01-06 00607, 2005

then there would be zeroOrMore extension elements

do you know how to express that in relax NG ?
2005-01-06 00611, 2005
21:12 PM
yalaforge
relax NG uses XML schema datatypes
2005-01-06 00623, 2005
21:12 PM
yalaforge
those datatypes support regular expressions
2005-01-06 00649, 2005
21:12 PM
yalaforge
is it possible to define your own datatypes in relax NG?
2005-01-06 00608, 2005
21:13 PM
yalaforge
otherwise we'd have to leave it as an unstructured string
2005-01-06 00636, 2005
21:13 PM
ruaok
I think so, but it makes validatio a lot harder when you have custom types.
2005-01-06 00651, 2005

2005-01-06 00653, 2005

the spec provides methods to restrict existing data types using regular expressions

21:16 PM
yalaforge
<simpleType name='myString'>
2005-01-06 00606, 2005

</simpleType>
2005-01-06 00615, 2005

that's how it's done in XML Schema
2005-01-06 00629, 2005
21:16 PM
yalaforge
there's probably an equivalent method in Relax NG
2005-01-06 00639, 2005
21:16 PM
ruaok
OK, I'll have a look.
2005-01-06 00657, 2005

2005-01-06 00606, 2005

there could still be information in the <extension> or <meta> elements
2005-01-06 00643, 2005

some complex filerting or something that doesn't need tracks

2005-01-06 00621, 2005

we gain a little bit of flexibility
2005-01-06 00625, 2005

and empty Playlist objects in a library are always in a valid state even if they contain no tracks
2005-01-06 00649, 2005
21:25 PM
yalaforge
they can be rendered at anytime and you don't have to throw exceptions if the track list is empty
2005-01-06 00603, 2005
21:26 PM

(the main reason, to be honest)
2005-01-06 00652, 2005

argh. lucas wouldn't add code to enforce the ordering, so I read

OF COURSE NOT!!
2005-01-06 00635, 2005
