XQuery 1.0 and XPath 2.0 Data Model
W3C Working Draft
7 June 2001
Section 3.4 Schema Components and Values
3rd para
xs:ID and xs:IDREF should not be given as examples of primitive
types; they are derived (ultimately) from xs:string.
Section 5.1 Primitive Values
1st para
"hexbinary" should have an uppercase "B".
2nd para:
xfo:integer is not a constructor for a primitive value, because
xs:integer is not a primitive dataype. It is derived from xs:decimal.
3rd para:
xs:IDREF is not a primitive datatype. It is derived from xs:string.
----
I think it may be a mistake to talk of "primitive values" and "derived
values". I believe XML Schema's primitive/derived dichotomy only applies
to datatypes, not values.
