The <xsd> element

The xsd element of the configuration file contains properties defining how schema documents are compiled by Saxon.

Attribute	Applies to	Values	Effect
`assertionsCanSeeComments`	EE	true\|false	Determines whether comment and processing instructions in a document being validated are visible to assertions in an XSD 1.1 schema.
`implicitSchemaImports`	EE	true\|false	If true, allows a schema document to reference components in a different target namespace without an explicit `xs:import` declaration, provided the referenced components are already known.
`multipleSchemaImports`	EE	true\|false	If set to true, the schema processor attempts to fetch a schema document appearing in an `xs:import` directive, whether or not a schema for that namespace has already been loaded.
`occurrenceLimits`	EE	A string containing two integers, comma-separated	Controls the limits applied to `minOccurs` and `maxOccurs` values in XSD content models.
`schemaUriResolver`	EE	Name of a class that implements SchemaURIResolver	Controls the handling of URIs in `xs:include`, `xs:import` etc. declarations, and also in `xsi:schemaLocation`.
`thresholdForCompilingTypes`	HE PE EE	integer	Indicates how often an XSD simple type definition must be used before Saxon generates bytecode to implement validation of input data against that type.
`useXsiSchemaLocation`	EE	true\|false	Indicates whether the schema processor takes account of `xsi:schemaLocation` and `xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation` attributes appearing in the instance document.
`version`	EE	1.0\|1.1	Indicates whether XSD 1.1 syntax is accepted.
