Schema Restrictions

Restrictions are used to define acceptable values for XML or JSon elements or attributes. Restrictions on XML elements are called facets, JSon restrictions are called semantics.

Data Annotations Attribute

In this section we will go over the various settings that interact with the restrictions. Most of these settings let you transport specifications already set in you schemas into you c# classes

Firstly, you can find the settings under the "Output property settings", from there you can open the "DataAnnotationsAttribute" settings, like so : 

Default Value Attribute

With this setting you can carry over the default value set in you schema, this default value will be applied to the appropriate attributes in the c# classes.

Here's what the restriction looks like in an Xsd and it's generated version :
Xsd :  
Generated version : 

Fraction Digits Attribute

With this setting you can transport your schema's fraction digits restriction into your generated code, this restriction defines the maximum number of fractional digits (i.e., digits that are after the decimal point). Must be equal to or greater than zero

Here's what this restriction looks like in an xsd and its generated version :
Xsd : 
Generated version : 

Max Digits Attribute

With this setting you can carry over your total digit limit restriction from your schema.
This restriction specifies the exact number of digits allowed. It must be greater than zero
Here's an example :
Xsd : 
Generated version :  

Max and Min Length Attribute

With these settings you can carry over from your schema your a maximum and/or minimum length restrictions on your attributes.
Here's an example of these settings in xsd and their generated versions :
Xsd :  
Generated version : 

Range Attribute

With this setting you can carry over your set range for certain attributes into your generated class.
Here's an example of a range restriction on an xsd attribute and it's generated version : 
Xsd : 
Generated code : 

Regular Expression Attribute

With this setting you can carry over your regular expressions from your schema to your generated code.

This restriction allows the definition of regular expression patterns over the lexical space. The syntax used for these patterns has been borrowed from Perl regular expressions, and has been enhanced to support the Unicode character blocks.

Required Attribute

With this setting you can set wether or not the required attribute is carried over from your schema, this attribute defines some attributes as required, meaning they need to have a value.

For example , in an Xsd the  specification will turn in to this in your c# class : 
  

String Length Attribute

With these settings you can carry over from your schema your a maximum and/or minimum length restrictions on your string attributes.

Here's an example of these settings in xsd and their generated versions :
Xsd :  
Generated version : 

Validate Property in Setter

With this setting you can will generate a validator function in the setter
