Error description

• In the UML-to-XSD transformation in IBM Rational Software
  Architect for WebSphere v8.0.4.2, the documentation is not
  included for the complex types extending other simplecontent
  complex types.
  
  The following steps reproduce the problem:
  
  1. Create a UML Model and apply the 'XSD Transformation Profile'
  2. Define a UML class 'A' and apply the '??complexType??'
  stereotype
  3. Add an attribute to the class and apply the '??attribute??'
  stereotype to this attribute
  4. Add a generalization relationship from class 'A' to the
  'string' data type, so that the class 'A' extends the 'string'
  type
  5. Define a UML Class 'B' and apply the ??complexType??
  stereotype to it
  6. Add a generalization relationship from class 'B' to class
  'A', so that class 'B' extends class 'A'
  7. Add documentation to class 'B'
  8. Add a UML-to-XSD transformation and run this transformation
  
  Expected Result: The transformed XML schema includes:
  
  --?class 'A' as a 'complexType' with 'simpleContent'
  --?class 'B' as a 'complexType' with 'simpleContent'
  
  along with documentation on complexType level.
  
  Actual Result: The transformed XML schema does not include the
  documentation.
  
  [?code?]
    ?xsd:complexType name='DateTimeRoleType'?
      ?xsd:simpleContent?
        ?xsd:extension base='tns:CodeListElementField'/?
      ?/xsd:simpleContent?
    ?/xsd:complexType?
  [?/code?]
  
  There is no workaround.

  extending other simplecontent complex types by UML to XSD
  transformation.
  

Problem conclusion

  extending other simplecontent complex types by UML to XSD
  transformation.
