Description

public XSObject itemByName(String namespace, String localName) {
if (namespace != null)
namespace = namespace.intern();
for (int i = 0; i < fNSNum; i++) {
if (namespace == fNamespaces[i])

{ XSTypeDefinition type = (XSTypeDefinition)fMaps[i].get(localName); // only return it if it mataches the required type if (type.getTypeCategory() == fType) return type; return null; }

}
return null;
}

You are doing object comparison, when you should be doing the following:
if(namespace.equals(fNamespaces[i]))
