RE: ORA-FO-MAXMIN-TYPE-CONSISTENCY 15.3.3 fn:max, 15.3.4 fn:min

Thank you for your comment.  This issue has been folded into FO-LC1-0060
which addresses a number of questions on the semantics of aggregate
functions.

 

All the best, Ashok

Subject: ORA-FO-MAXMIN-TYPE-CONSISTENCY 15.3.3 fn:max, 15.3.4 fn:min 

 

Functions and Operators, Section 15.3.3 fn:max, 15.3.4 fn:min 


The type conversion rules for fn:max, fn:min are inconsistent with the
type conversion rules for fn:avg. 

eg fn:avg says "If all values in $srcval are of type xdt:untypedAtomic
they are converted to xs:double".
while fn:min says "If all values in $srcval are of type
xdt:untypedAtomic they are converted to xs:string".
