Attributes declared through ref were reported as unqualified in the metadata. A ref always points to a global attribute declaration, and global attribute declarations are qualified with the target namespace of the schema that declares them, so xml:lang, a global attribute from an imported schema and a global attribute from the same schema all belong in a namespace. The xsd-reader fills the qualification of a ref from the form and attributeFormDefault rules, which only apply to local declarations. For a ref to a global attribute in the same schema that made it impossible to tell apart from a local unqualified attribute.

I now mark every AttributeRef as qualified in AttributeSingleConfigurator, which is where the attribute meta gets its qualification. Local attributes keep following form and attributeFormDefault. Refs inside attribute groups, nested attribute groups and complex or simple content extensions and restrictions go through the same configurator, so they are covered by the same change.

php-soap/encoding writes an attribute with the target namespace prefix when it is qualified, so after this change it writes o:flag and tns:glob instead of the bare names. Its Schema038 compatibility test expects the unprefixed form that ext-soap produces and will need its expectation updated. The xml prefix is never declared in a WSDL, so it was missing from the known namespaces and xml:lang had no prefix to write. The namespaces now always include xml bound to http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace, and with both changes encoding writes xml:lang="nl" as valid XML.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Attribute references are now consistently recognized as qualified, regardless of local attribute form settings.
    • The standard xml namespace is now available during namespace parsing even when it is not explicitly declared, while explicit declarations continue to work.

A ref points to a global attribute declaration, and global attribute
declarations are always qualified with the target namespace of the schema
that declares them. The form and attributeFormDefault rules only apply to
local declarations.
The xml prefix is bound by the XML namespaces spec and never declared in a WSDL. Attributes such as xml:lang now resolve to that namespace, so consumers can write them with the xml prefix instead of declaring the XML namespace themselves.

📝 Walkthrough

The attribute configurator now treats attribute references as qualified. The namespace parser initializes both namespace maps with the standard xml prefix and URI. Tests cover attribute qualification cases and implicit or explicit XML namespace declarations.

Changes: Attribute Qualification

Layer / File(s) Summary
Attribute qualification rule
src/Metadata/Converter/Types/Configurator/AttributeSingleConfigurator.php, tests/Unit/Metadata/Coverter/Types/Configurator/AttributeQualificationTest.php
The configurator marks attribute references as qualified and uses isQualified() for other single attributes. The tests cover referenced and local attributes across schema forms and derivation cases.

Namespace Maps

Layer / File(s) Summary
Initialize XML namespace lookups
src/Parser/Definitions/NamespacesParser.php, tests/Unit/Parser/Definitions/NamespacesParserTest.php
The parser seeds both namespace maps with the standard xml prefix and URI. Tests check implicit and explicit XML declarations and the tns prefix.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to aef19

Attributes referenced from no-namespace schemas can receive incorrect qualification metadata. Fix this edge case before merging, or explicitly accept its limited impact.

- Line 23: Update the qualification logic in AttributeSingleConfigurator so an
AttributeRef is qualified only when its declaring schema has a target namespace;
preserve the existing qualification behavior for non-reference types. Add a test
case confirming that references to global attributes in a schema without a
target namespace remain unqualified.
