I’m creating XSD files in which various elements have regular expression (RE) pattern restrictions (examples below).
I created the REs using the “Regular Expressions Wizard” that pops up when adding “Specific constraints values” on the constraints tab of
the element properties. The wizard shows the REs as valid but when validating XML document using the XSD I get “InvalidRegex:
Pattern value ‘\b(?:(?:25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?)\.){3}(?:25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?)\b’ is not a valid regular expression.
The reported error was: ‘This expression is not supported in the current option setting’.'” on one and “InvalidRegex: Pattern value:
‘(\p{Alpha}([\p{Alnum}\-]{0,61}\p{Alnum})?\.)+\p{Alpha}{2,6}’ is not a valid regular expression. The reported error was: ‘Uknown property.’.”
Any ideas on where to look for resolving this would be appreciated.

Greenbird, can you copy and paste the entire file here for me, or PM it to me with a link to this thread so I know why I’m getting it and I’ll have a look?
