Abstract
XML Schema Designs for environment-specific types based on XML base types are disclosed. The invention provides a series of 'base types' in the XML Schema. Each base type is in an environment-specific XML Schema namespace that disambiguates the environment's types from all other types defined by any other environment. The XML Schema Design then defines the final type as an anonymous type, derived from the environment-specific base type. The base type is defined with any XML Schema type facets that apply to all derivatives of the base type, and the anonymous final type is defined with additional XML Schema type facets to fully describe the type.
