Introduction

The following article describes the XML Schema for the geronimo-application.xsd deployment descriptor .In order to deploy an EAR application in Geronimo,there should be a Geronimo specific deployment plan for it called "geronimo-application.xml".The deployment descriptor must be named "META-INF/geronimo-application

...

.xml" in the application's EAR file.
The article organized into the following sections : -

Geronimo Application XML Schema Document

...

Schema Document Properties schema

Target Namespace

http://geronimo.apache.org/xml/ns/j2ee/application-1.1
As all the other application deployment descriptors must indicate
the application schema by using the J2EE namespace the
geronimo-application also uses this J2EE namespace

Version

1.0 - The version indicates the published version ofthe schema

Element and Attribute Namespaces

Global element and attribute declarations belong to this schema's
target namespace.
By default, local element declarations belong to this schema's target
namespace.
By default, local attribute declarations have no namespace.

Schema Composition

This schema imports schema(s) from the following namespace(s):

http://geronimo.apache.org/xml/ns/

...

security-1.1(at

geronimo-security-1.1.xsd)

http://geronimo.apache.org/xml/ns/deployment-1.1(at

Description

xml

http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace

The namespace whose name is

http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace

is bound by definition to the prefix xml: according to Namespaces in XML, W3C Recommendation 14 Jan 1999

Geronimo

http://geronimo.apache.org/xml/ns/j2ee/application-1.1

This is the target name space defined for Geronimo EAR applications

This schema Used to deploy new services in Geronimo in a standalone plan, and also contains common elements used by many other plans and the module type is Server Plans & Common Elements

Glossary

Abstract (Applies to complex type definitions and element declarations). An abstract element or complex type cannot used to validate an element instance. If there is a reference to an abstract element, only element declarations that can substitute the abstract element can be used to validate the instance. For references to abstract type definitions, only derived types can be used.

All Model Group Child elements can be provided in any order in instances. See: http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-1/#element-all.
