7 -The common namespace defines a collection of constructs that are reused across the various [[components>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Component.WebHome]] of [[SDMX>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Statistical data and metadata exchange.WebHome]]. Most important of these are the referencing mechanism. The goal of the reference construct was to define a generic structure that could be processed uniformly regardless of the context where the reference was used. But it was also important that references be required to be complete whenever possible.

To meet the previously stated requirements, and very general mechanism was created based on the URN structure of [[SDMX>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Statistical data and metadata exchange.WebHome]] objects for these reference fields.

10 10  
11 11  There was also a requirement that the references be able to be refined to meet particular needs outside of the common namespace. An example of this is in the metadata structure specific schemas. It is a requirement that if a target object is specified as having to come from a particular scheme, that a type based on the reference structure be created that enforced the requirement.
12 12  
13 -Typically, this would not have been an issues as all of the [[components>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Component.WebHome]] which make up the references are of atomic types, and therefore can be expressed as XML [[attributes>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Attribute.WebHome]] which are easily refined and restricted since the XML Schema design principles in [[SDMX>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Statistical data and metadata exchange.WebHome]] always treats [[attributes>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Attribute.WebHome]] as unqualified.
13 +Typically, this would not have been an issues as all of the components which make up the references are of atomic types, and therefore can be expressed as XML attributes which are easily refined and restricted since the XML Schema design principles in SDMX always treats attributes as unqualified.
14 14  
15 15  However, the requirement to allow both a URN and/or a complete set of reference field necessitate that these properties be contained in elements. The fact that they are elements typically would mean that the only way a refinement outside of the namespace could happen was if the element were global and allowed for substitutions. This however would mean that every distinct type of referenced object would have a unique set of elements. This moved away from the requirement that the structure be easy to process regardless of context.
16 16  
17 -The solution to this problem was to deviate from the normal [[SDMX>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Statistical data and metadata exchange.WebHome]] XML Schema design principle of always using qualified elements and allowing for these to be unqualified. Doing so allows other namespace to derive from these types and place further restrictions on what can be referenced. The deviation from this principle was justified in that it met all of the requirements and was not deemed to major of a shift since these properties normally would have been expressed as unqualified [[attributes>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Attribute.WebHome]] if it weren't for the complete reference requirement.

Note that this is the same pattern as the NCNameIDType, but can be used when the base type to be restricted is a nested NCNameIDType (where as the NCNameIDType could only restrict the IDType).

1971 -**LegacyVersionNumberType:** LegacyVersionNumberType describes the (% style="color:#e74c3c" %)version(%%) number format previously supported in [[SDMX>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Statistical data and metadata exchange.WebHome]]. The format is restricted to allow for simple incrementing and sorting of (% style="color:#e74c3c" %)version(%%) number. The (% style="color:#e74c3c" %)version(%%) consists of a set of maximum 2 numeric [[components>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Component.WebHome]], separated by the '.' character. When processing (% style="color:#e74c3c" %)version(%%), each numeric [[component>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Component.WebHome]] (the number preceding and following any '.' character) should be parsed as an integer. Thus, a (% style="color:#e74c3c" %)version(%%) of 1.3 and 1.03 would be equivalent, as both the '3' [[component>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Component.WebHome]] and the '03' [[component>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Component.WebHome]] would parse to an integer value of 3.
