Defining elements

Property	Description
ID	ID of the Any. Its value must be of type ID and unique within
	the model containing the Any. Only available in a model
	targeted with XSD
Namespace	Namespaces containing the objects that can be used. If you
	select ##any, objects from any namespace can be used. If you
	select ##other, objects from any namespace other than the
	target namespace of the schema can be used. If you select
	##local, objects that are not qualified with a namespace can
	be used. If you select ##targetNamespace, objects from the
	target namespace of the schema can be used. If you type a
	combination of URI references, ##targetNamespace and
	##local, provided they are separated by a white space, objects
	from this combination can be used. Only available in a model
	targeted with XSD
Process contents	Indicator of how an XML processor should handle validation
	of XML documents containing the objects specified by the
	Any. If you select Strict, the XML processor must obtain the
	schema and validate any object of the specified namespaces.
	If you select Lax, the XML processor will try to obtain the
	schema and validate any object of the specified namespaces.
	If the schema cannot be found, no error will occur. If you
	select Skip, the XML processor will not try to validate the
	objects of the specified namespaces. Only available in a
	model targeted with XSD

To create an Any:

1 Select the Any tool in the palette.

2 Click a choice or a sequence symbol in the diagram.

The Any symbol appears in the diagram attached to the choice or sequence symbol.

3Right-click to recover the Pointer. or

Click the Pointer tool in the palette.

4Double-click the Any symbol in the diagram. The Any property sheet appears.
