XSD reference a type defined within the same file

问题

I an trying to create an XSD, to define complex types to be referenced in other XSDs. So far so good. Within this XSD (playlist.xsd) I have one main complexType "playlistType". I want the playlistType to be able to contain multiple instances of an element of type 'secondaryEventType', which I am trying to define as a separate complexType within the same XSD file.

However, when I come to try to create the 'secondaryEvent' element within the 'playlistType' I am continuously getting the error message : "'secondaryEventType' must refer to an existing simple or complex type.". I have tried placing the definition of the 'secondaryEventType' both before and after the definition of the main 'playlistType', I have tried with and without the xs: prefix.

What am I doing wrong?

Reference the name of the playlistType complex type using the namespace given by the XSD's targetNamespace. Your updated, working XSD follows...

Stub baseTypes.xsd:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
           xmlns:xsB="baseTypes"
           targetNamespace="baseTypes">
  <xs:complexType name="guidType"/>
  <xs:complexType name="timecodeType"/>
</xs:schema>

Working main XSD:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
           xmlns:xsB="baseTypes"
