XSD Data File Information ------------------------- Author: Colin Smythe Date: 31st January, 2011 Version: 1.1 Status: Final Release Description: This model forms a part of the IMS GLC Common Catrtridge specification. This model is the profile of the IMS GLC Content Package Core specification (v1.2). The changes made to create the profile are: (a) The 'default' characteristic for the 'Organizations' class has been removed; (b) The 'isvisible' characteristic for the Item class has been removed; (c) The 'parameters' characteristic for the Item class has been removed; (d) The 'structure' characteristic for the Organization class has been fixed to 'rooted-hierarchy'; (e) The 'extension' and 'version' characteristics for the Manifest class have been removed; (f) The 'extension' attribute and 'extension' characteristic have been removed the Organizations class; (g) The 'extension' attribute and 'extension' characteristic have been removed the Organization class; (h) The 'extension' attribute and 'extension' characteristic have been removed from the Resources class; (i) The 'extension' attribute and the 'extension' characteristic have been removed from the Resource class; (j) The 'extension' attribute and 'extension' characteristic have been removed from the Item class; (k) The 'extension' attribute and the 'extension' characteristic have been removed from the File class; (l) The 'extension' attribute and 'extension' characteristic have been removed from the Dependency class; (m) The 'type' characteristic of the Resource class has a new enumerated list of 'PredfinedContentTypes'; (n) The 'title' attribute for the Item class has its multiplicity changed to '1' except for the top-level item attribute in the Orgaization class where it must not occur; (o) Manifests are NO longer allowed to contain sub-manifests; (p) The multiplicity of the Organization class in the Organizations class has been made '0..1'; (q) Only the metadata in the Manifest class is permitted to have the 'schema' and 'schemaversion' attributes; (r) The 'schema', 'schemaversion' and 'title' attributes are redefined directly as 'String' primitiveTypes; (s) The multiplicity of the 'item' attribute in the Organization class has been made '1'; (t) The value for the 'schema' attribute has been set as 'IMS Common Cartridge'; (u) The value for the 'schemaversion' attribute has been set to '1.1.0'; (v) The authorizations attribute has been added as an imported extension to the manifest; (w) The protect attribute has been added as an imported extension to the resource; (x) The IEEE LOM attribute has been added as an imported extension to the manifest metadata; (y) The 'intendeduse' attribute has been added to the ResourceType complexType. History: This profile is taken from the formal representation in UML of the IMS CP v1.2 core specification. This is the second version of the profile for the CCv1.1. The two changes are the addition of the ResourceMetadata class and the vocabulary for the permitted resource types.

This identifies a resource whose files this resource depends upon. The reference to an identifier in the resources section is contained in the Identifierref attribute.

A listing of file that this resource is dependent on. The href attribute identifies the location of the file. This may have some meta-data.

This is the structure that describes the shape of the organization. It is used in a hierarchical organizational scheme by ordering and nesting. Each Item has an identifier that is unique within the Manifest file. Identifierref acts as a reference to an identifier in the resources section. An Item has a title and may have meta-data. The parameters and isvisible attributes have been removed for this profile.

This is the structure that describes the top-level shape of the organization and so only a single Item is permitted. The top-level has an identifier that is unique within the Manifest file. It may have meta-data but it has not title. It can contain any number of Items. The parameters and isvisible attributes have been removed for this profile

A reusable unit of instruction. It encapsulates meta-data, organizations, resource references and authorization.
It must have an identifier that is unique within the Manifest. The version and reference base is optional.
The base provides the relative path offset for the content file(s).

This is the meta-data describing the Manifest. The schema describes the schema that defines and controls the Manifest.
Schemaversion describes the version of the above schema (e.g., 1,0, 1.1). In Common Cartridge all of the meta-data is described
using the iEEE LOM standard format. CC manifest metadata is required.

This is the meta-data describing the associated class (but not the manifest which has its own meta-data structure).
In Common Cartridge all of the meta-data is described using the IEEE LOM standard format.

This is the meta-data describing the associated class (but not the manifest which has its own meta-data structure).
In Common Cartridge all of the meta-data is described using the IEEE LOM standard format.

This is the meta-data describing the associated class (but not the manifest which has its own meta-data structure).
In Common Cartridge all of the meta-data is described using the IEEE LOM standard format.

Describes a particular hierarchical organization in this profile; this is the only type of oranization that is permitted. The identifier, for the organization, that is unique within the Manifest file. The organization may have meta-data.

Describes zero or one structures or organizations for the Cartridge. Only one organization is permitted so the default attribute has been removed for this Profile.

A reference to a resource which consists of one or more physical files. The Identifer of the resource is unique within the scope of its containing Manifest file. The Type attribute indicates the type of resource - for the Cartridge this is an enumerated set. The resource may have meta-data, zero or more files references, and zero or more dependencies.

CCV1.1 PROFILE: The authorizations 'protected' attribute and the 'intendedUse' attribute are added.

This is the container for resource specific metadata..

A collection of references to resources. There is no assumption of order or hierarchy. The base attribute provides the relative path offset for the content file(s).
