I have a requirement to disallow backslash characters in a given string field defined

  • 0

I have a requirement to disallow backslash characters in a given string field defined by an xsd document. However, being as green as I am, I am not confident with my xsd and/or regex knowledge. Here is what I have so far:

<xs:simpleType name='BackslashRestrictedField'>   <xs:restriction base='xs:string'>     <xs:minLength value='0' />     <xs:pattern value='[^\\]'/> <!-- disallow backslash '\' char ??? -->   </xs:restriction> </xs:simpleType> 

Suggestions?

    If I’m right, with this expression, you only allow a string that’s one character long and that won’t accept backslash. Adding a * at the end of your regexp should fix this issue.
