Schema element "b:reusable"

The base type for many complex definitions. They are defined as rather stand-alone things, but tied together via their name.

Definitions

<element name="reusable" type="b:Reusable" abstract="true" />

<complexType name="Reusable">
  <sequence />
  <attribute      ref="b:name" />
</complexType>

Description

The Unit's data consists of different blocks of information, which can be referred to from other places within the Unit or even from outside the Unit. The reference is made via a b:Fragment, but only works when the Unit has a b:name attribute.

Even when there is at a certain moment no need to give a reusable component a name, it might simplify the use of the Unit later or optimize lookups a bit.
