Re: Preparsing XML Schema data types in Xerces-J

My code made you cringe, didn't it?  I'll spare you the rest of it then... :-)

Thanks for the tip, that cleaned it up a lot.

I'm still new to Java and Xerces-J, it would have taken me a long 
time to make the connection that getName() would return a type value. 
That's what I get for being self-taught!
Thanks again!
