61 * for the convenience of the callee. This name can be
62 * used for the file name of the schema, or the callee can just
63 * ignore this name and come up with its own name.

71 * absolute system ID. Those system IDs are relativized by the caller and used
72 * for <xs:import> statements.
73 *
74 * If the {@link Result} object does not have a system ID, a schema
75 * for the namespace URI is generated but it won't be explicitly
76 * <xs:import>ed from other schemas.

78 * If {@code null} is returned, the schema generation for this
