C\_DEFINED\_OBJECT in the current XML schema
is missing a

any\_allowed

boolean value\. Is this an oversight or is there some
other mechanism to express the wildcard
semantics?

Hi Andrew,
any\_allowed was defined some time ago as functions in various classes;
this function is now defined on C\_DEFINED\_OBJECT classes with
descendants redefining \- see the AOM\.

ah yes \- sorry \- I saw that is was now a function but didn't see the
explanatory text on how to compute the value from the state
information \(so I thought it needed some extra data stored\)\.
