285625 - Handling schemas without targetNamespace doesn't work

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 285751

(Core Graveyard :: Web Services, defect)

Description

[Doron Rosenberg (IBM)]

http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-1/#declare-schema (scroll down a bit)

"Since the empty string is not a legal namespace name, supplying an empty string
for targetNamespace is incoherent, and is not the same as not specifying it at
all. The appropriate form of schema document corresponding to a ·schema· whose
components have no {target namespace} is one which has no targetNamespace
attribute specified at all."

This seems to imply that no targetNamespace is fine, and that type="foo" would
match that schema.

So currently, in nsSchemaLoader:
http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/extensions/webservices/schema/src/nsSchemaLoader.cpp#805

we get an "" key, and nsCOMPtr<nsISchema> os = do_QueryInterface(old); returns
an actual object, so we return out of the method.  And mSchemas seems to have a
entry length of 1, which I guess is created with key "".

So, what should we do?  I can't figure where that empty key item is coming from.
 So, should we, if no targetNamespace is found, make the value of the key be
something ("-moz-no-target-namespace")?
