inc-scheme_3-1.xsd

IPC common types for schema and compilation files
Base attribute list for IPC entries
symbol of entry or start of scope for non-structured entries
unique for structured entries only
end of scope symbol, for non-structured entries only, e.g. for notes
the scope lasts until the last descendant of the endSymbol
entry type
e.g. classifying, double purpose or indexing
mostly relevant in prereform versions
type of IPC entry, e.g. 'm' for maingroup
non-empty IPC version list
versions separated by comma
Classifications Scheme of origin
body of structured elements as described in Guide: multipart title
semicolon-separated list of title parts in presentation
text and associated references

Comment

In presentation: the entryReferences, if any, are put into parentheses and separated by ';'-s
text of the titlePart
Rules for starting with capital or lower case letters: see the Guide.
Does not contain the ; separator, neither parentheses.
formatted text, also may contain references, symbols and images
a titlePart may have a sequence of entryReferences (i.e. those presented in text of IPC symbols in parentheses), separated by semicolons

Comment

usual format of entry references
text followed by a sequence of references
take precedences and some others
free order of text and references
text containing formatting markup and special characters
list of references with separators. used in notes and note paragraphs (reference tables)
Sequence of:
  • mixed text (should be just separators)
  • single reference or interval reference
 reference without any other markup reference interval without any other markup
text of a structured or non-structured entry
note: when kind='n'
index: when kind='i'
multipart 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 regular prefixed or non-prefixed (not a 'table'):
    text
    contains the text itself
    subnote
    sequence of subparagraphs
    orphan:
    a subparagraph that falls out of the subparagraph sequence (non-prefixed)
  • when parent note type is 'table' (during the reform: gradually moved to the definitions):
    references
    list of references
    text
    text associated to references
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
