inc-annexes_1-02.xsd

IPC Annexes Schema as part of compilation file schema, V.1.02

History

2012-SEP-25
(TA) split from ipcr_scheme_1-02.xsd
latest amendment of the ipcEntry
The amendments are embedded into compilation entries.
The documentation is informative, since these elements are mostly for statistical purposes and for tracking the revision work.

The latest session that adopted the annex.

The latest decision. In compilation files it should be 'adopt'.
status of the annex; in compilation files it should be CEadopted or SCadopted.
the amendment is a C-Type (considerable) modification, i.e. subject matter is considerably modified.
single language or language-independent amendment
order in the original proposal
used before simplification
comment of the administration system
severity of the comment in errorText
type of project
This attribute is selected from a configurable list in the administration software.
Typical values :
  1. D: definition
  2. M: maintenance
  3. R: revision
  4. H: hybrid
 Project code in for X999
IPC level subject of modification in annexes
 core only advanced (only: if core level exist, maybe the core level text is not modified) both IPC levels are modified at the same time
sessionDecided:which session made the decision
generated:for tracking sent-back and automatically generated amendments
decision:what was the decision of the session?
simplification of the real state stored in the database
STRUCTURED entry operations
unchanged amendment, for an interval
structure modification
 positive or negative number designating the relative change of the number of dots (=kind of IPC entry for subgroups)
core->advanced or advanced->core modification
'entry type' modification
'delete' amendment
pls. note:'deleted' is the IPC entry or interval that has been deleted!
'new' amendment
entryType, ipcLevel:see at ipcEntry
modify:text or complex modification
type, ipcLevel:see at ipcEntry
delete unstructured
new unstructured element, e.g. new note
modify unstructured element, e.g. modify text of a note
move an unstructured entry, i.e. change of scope
renumber entry
instruction for renumbering an interval of symbols
seldomly used, practically only before simplification and maybe in WG decisions
renumber source interval start
renumber source interval end, optional
renumber target interval start
renumber target interval end, optional
 change of priority number
delete new entry, undo operation
rarely used, may not appear in compilation files
undelete entry, undo operation
rarely used, may not appear in compilation files
restore entry, undo operation
rarely used, may not appear in compilation files
entry type, in reformed IPC: usually double purpose
In prereform editions all three values were in use.
Values are different from simpleType entryType in ipcr_scheme
 indexing classifying double purpose
text of a structured or non-structured entry
note: when kind='n'
index: when kind='i'
deleted: when kind='d', not used in simplified IPC after 20110101
title: when structured, kind='g' (guidance heading), kind='t' (subsection title)
non-structured element: note
paragraph of a note
The following rules apply:
  1. usually numbered or number-less notes are the points of notes
  2. some notes (usually section notes) may contain Roman numbered notes
  3. when the noteParagraph is non-numbered, there is no further noteParagraph sibling
type of prefix;
e.g. Roman is like I,II,IV,
Alpha: like A. (seldomly used)
indentation depth (if not automatic)
obsolete in newer editions but appeared in prereform editions
text of a single paragraph and its subparagraphs

Structure:

two independent cases:
  • when parent note type is 'table' (during the reform: gradually moved to the definitions):
    references
    list of references
    text
    text associated to references
  • when parent note type is not 'table': textual paragraph:
    text
    contains the text itself
    subnote
    sequence of subparagraphs
    orphan:
    a subparagraph that falls out of the subparagraph sequence (non-prefixed)
text of the primary note paragraph, without prefix
subparagraph note
  • may contain further subnotes
  • subnotes should have a different type than their ancestor note or subnote
closes the sentence starting with the text and embedding the subnote-s
 in note reference tables: list of references in the left column
in note reference tables: text in the right column
each single paragraph may have an edition attribute, that may be different from the attribute of the embedding ipcEntry
out-of-sequence subparagraph closing a sentence and rarely opening a new subdivision
text of the orphan; never contains any prefix
Usually closes the sentence started in th owning subnote.
subnote within an orphan
when a new sequence of subparagraphs starts under the orphan;
There are very few notes that contain further subdivision of an orphan.
optional orphan, that closes the sentence started in the owning orphan
There are very few notes that contain orphan of an orphan.
an orphan may have an edition mark
sequence of embedded noteParagraph-s
paragraphs of a subnote
body of indexes of a subclass, class and subsection
root index entry

Comment

root indexEntry-s are presented in the EN,FR languages in full capitals (but not necessarily in all languages)
one paragraph of an index, containing a text and list of references

Comments

  • References should not be empty on the leaves.
  • Embedding means also: deeper indentation level in presentation and subdivision of subject matter.
  • List of IPC symbol intervals is not necessarily sequential; inner symbols may appear at a different indexEntry.
index entry title
May contain underlined text or references (mostly in prereform editions).
May contain references (mostly for residual groups in prereform editions).
On level 0: capital letters in EN and FR.
 list of references in indexEntry-s; if there are no sibling indexEntry-s, should not be empty
embedded indexEntry-s, whose subject matter falls under the containing indexEntry
same as schemeTitle, since titles do not contain edition numbers
same as schemeText
 same as schemeReferences
list of edition dates, 6 digit form (can be empty), may contain "new" as well
Editions on and before 20070101 contain version indicators in different forms: list of prereform indicators with dates
 new entry or note paragraph considerably modified entry or note paragraph modified note paragraph modified note paragraph (legacy value in former compilation files)
Type of the amendment.
 delete unstructured (note, index, etc.) modify unstructured new unstructured move unstructured modify structured entry new structured entry delete structured entry unchanged entry
used when text is changed only in one of the authentic languages core-to-advanced,advanced-to-core
used in reformed IPC before the simplification entry type modification, e.g. entry becomes classifying structure modification: adding or removal of 'dots', i.e. subdivision or merge of subject matter change of priority undo operation: restore, revoke modification
used in annexes only undo operation: undelete, revoke deletion
used in annexes only to return to previous text undo operation: delete new, revoke new entry
used in annexes only
