Hi, I have a question about enumeration facets of union types. I have the following schema: ---------------------------------- <xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" elementFormDefault="qualified"> <xs:element name="test" type="st.unionType"/> <xs:simpleType name="st.unionType"> <xs:restriction> <xs:simpleType> <xs:union memberTypes="xs:string xs:integer"/> </xs:simpleType> <xs:enumeration value="11"/> </xs:restriction> </xs:simpleType> </xs:schema> ---------------------------------- In section 2.5.1.3 of "XML Schema Part2: Datatypes" (http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-2/#union-datatypes) it is said that the evaluation order of datatypes can be overridden with the use of xsi:type. So my question is whether the value space of "st.unionType" only contains the String "11" or also the Integer "11". An example for the problem would be the following xml file: ---------------------------------- <test xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="test.xsd" xsi:type="xs:integer"> 11 </test> ---------------------------------- Is this file valid or should it be rejected? My problem is that I have two tools which interpret the enumeration-facet of union types in different ways and now I have to decide where to report the bug ;-) Thanks for your help Klaas DellschaftReceived on Wednesday, 24 November 2004 13:12:46 GMT
