Do child schema element inherit namespaces of parent?

Question

I have following declaration in my BPEL's wsdl file -
<xs:element name="iamcomplex" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="complexpartone" type="xs:string" />
<xs:element name="complexparttwo" type="xs:string" />
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
On validating my BPEL in eclipse designer, I get following error for complexpartone and complexparttwo
[bpelc] [Error] ServiceFlow.wsdl:27:61: s4s-att-invalid-value: Invalid attribute value for 'type' in element 'element'. Recorded reason: UndeclaredPrefix: Cannot resolve 'xs:string' as a QName: the prefix 'xs' is not declared.

My understanding was that both these elements will inherit xmlns:xs declaration on element 'iamcomplex'. Isn't that case? Am I supposed to declare it for each child?

Hi,
The project hierarchy is data is available in PRHI table.
PRHI'S' is for standard structures. S stands for standard.
PRHI is for operative structure.
If you want to know the WBSE immediately under a WBSE say A. Then go to PRHI table enter A in POSNR field. The WBSE under it will be available in PRHI-DOWN field.
If u have more than one WBSEs under A and you are looking to get all of them. Then u may have to rite a Z function module. Logic can be as under.
Assume WBS structure is as below
Level 1 = A
Level 2 = B,C,D.
When u give A as input u want BCD as output.
Then
Take input as 'A'.
1) Go to PRHI and enter A in POSNR. Collect PRHI-DOWN and Store.
2) Again go to PRHI and enter PRHI-DOWN (collected above) in POSNR. Collect PRHI-RIGHT and Store.
3) Again go to PRHI and enter PRHI-RIGHT (Collected above) in POSNR. Colect PRHI-RIGHT and Store.
4) Repeat step 3. untill PRHI-RIGHT = Initial or Zero.
This Function module will give u all the WBSEs assigned in immediate one level less than the input WBSE.
Please post ur findings after u try this.
Thanks
