Calculating Dependencies of Mappings

Introduction

In the real world, schemas often depend on other schemas. For instance the OWS 2.0 schema depends on the XLink 1.0 schema.

Jsonix Schema Compiler supports a number of use cases where it needs to analyze the dependencies between the resulting Jsonix mappings. For instance:

• Generating Mapping Dependencies Property
• Including Dependencies of Other Mappings

In these use cases Jsonix Schema Compiler has to answer question like:

• What other mappings does the given mapping depend on?
• Which items in this mapping are required by some other mapping?

This document describes how mapping dependencies are calculated.
