xs:minExclusive

Purpose	This element is a restriction facet that specifies an exclusive lower bound as a constraint of the value space for a data item. The value of the constraint is given by the `value` attribute.
Parent element	`xs:restriction`
Child elements	None
Attributes	`fixed`, `value`
Restrictions	The following restrictions apply for the `xs:minExclusive` element: The `xs:minExclusive` element may not be specified simultaneously with the `xs:minInclusive` element. The value specified by `xs:minExclusive` must be valid with respect to the value specified by any relevant `xs:maxExclusive` or `xs:maxInclusive` facet. The `xs:minExclusive` element must be chosen in such a way that all values allowed for the restricted type also belong to the value space of the base type. The following update schema constraint applies to the `xs:minExclusive` element: The value of `xs:minExclusive` is not permitted to become more restrictive after update schema.

Attributes

Name	Type	Description
`fixed`	`xs:boolean`	If "true", the value of this facet must not be changed in a derived type. Default: "false".
`value`	The type of the `xs:minExclusive` element depends on the base of the restriction.	The `value` attribute specifies the minimum value of the restricted type. The exact value of the `value` attribute is excluded from the value space.

Example

The following example shows a simple type definition based on a restriction using the xs:minExclusive element:

<xs:simpleType name="notlessthan20">
  <xs:restriction base="integer">
    <xs:minExclusive value="19"/>
  </xs:restriction>
</xs:simpleType>

The value space of the simple type "notlessthan20" is restricted to integer values greater than 19. This means 20 is the smallest allowed element in this value space.
