A content-model violation is now placed at the offending child with a
recovery hint naming what was expected, instead of one opaque "content
does not match the content model" per element. The sequence/choice
automaton is walked child by child via its follow-set to flag the first
child the model rejects, or the incomplete content at the end; an xs:all
group recovers past each stray child and reports every missing required
member. Well-placed children are still validated for their own content,
so an editor sees every problem at once. Brings XSD to the same located,
recovering standard as the RELAX NG, DTD, and Schematron validators.
Adds RelaxNG.errors(in:) reporting every way a document fails the schema
as individual located errors with coding paths, recovering past each
failure so all of a faulty document's problems surface at once instead of
only the first. Errors carry recovery hints naming the element types
accepted at the failure point, and distinguish unexpected elements,
invalid or missing attributes, invalid text/datatype content, and missing
required content. RelaxNG.validation() exposes the schema as a
Validation<Node, Void>, composing with the same framework as the XSD,
DTD, and Schematron rules. The boolean derivative engine remains the
authority on validity; the diagnostic walk only places and explains the
failures, recovering each step so it never cascades. Splits the engine
and the diagnostics into separate files.
A prefer attribute on a <group> (or nested <catalog>) overrides the
catalog-wide preference for the <public> entries within it, inherited
through nested groups. The resolver records each public entry's effective
preference and consults it when falling back from an unmatched system
identifier, so two entries in one catalog can prefer differently. A system
match still always wins.
A <pattern abstract="true"> is a template whose rule queries carry $name
references; a <pattern is-a="…"> with <param> children instantiates it,
substituting each parameter into the template's context, test, <let>
value, and <value-of select=> before the XPath is compiled. The
substitution is a single left-to-right pass, so a substituted value is
never rescanned and a short name never captures a longer one; $name
references that are not parameters stay as written. The template itself
contributes no rules.
verification.md listed scripts/check-changelog-touched.sh in the local
gate, but the script did not exist (exit 127). Adds it: when a change set
modifies Sources/*.swift it must also update CHANGELOG.md, comparing the
branch against its base plus the working tree, no-op on a clean base, with
a CHANGELOG_SKIP escape hatch for refactor-only changes. Wires it into
check-all.sh alongside the other shell gates.
Adds the Unreleased changelog entry for the datatypeLibrary resolution,
value-space <value> comparison, nsName subtraction, and compact-syntax
annotations/div/concatenation work, and updates the README suite count to
573 tests in 84 suites.
A string literal split with ~ ("a" ~ "b") is the single literal "ab",
the way long values and namespace URIs are wrapped across lines. The fold
applies wherever a string literal is read: value literals and the URIs of
namespace/datatypes/include/external declarations.
A <value> pattern now carries its datatype, so matching compares the
instance and the literal in that type's value space rather than purely
lexically. Numeric and date/time types compare by value (1 equals 01,
1.5 equals 1.50); booleans treat 1/true and 0/false as equal; string and
token compare by their whitespace-normalized lexical form, as before.
Untyped values default to the built-in token type, and a bare string
literal in the compact syntax is token-typed. Durations and binary types
fall under the lexical rule.
Adds a datatypeLibrary-aware datatype resolver to the XML-syntax parser:
the in-scope library is inherited from the nearest ancestor, the default
(empty) library defines only string and token, and the W3C XML Schema
library defines the full built-in set. A type the in-scope library does
not define is an unknown datatype, so the <data>/<value> pattern matches
nothing rather than silently validating.
Adds an nsNameExcept name-class case so nsName with an <except> child
(XML syntax) and prefix:* - name subtraction (compact syntax) narrow a
namespace wildcard. The compact lexer splits prefix:* into a trailing-
colon word plus a star symbol, which the parser now recognizes.
Existing RELAX NG facet tests declared XSD types without the library and
relied on lenient resolution; they now declare the XSD datatypeLibrary,
matching what a conformant processor requires.
The compact-syntax parser now skips [ ... ] documentation/grammar
annotations (balanced over nesting) wherever they may appear, before a
define or before a pattern, and treats div { ... } as transparent
grammar grouping that contributes its defines and start directly. A
define literally named div still parses when assigned. Splits the
name-class and token helpers into a companion file to stay within the
type and file length budget.
Resolver(sgml:) parses the legacy SGML catalog format: PUBLIC, SYSTEM,
DELEGATE, CATALOG, BASE, and OVERRIDE entries with -- comment --
delimiters. Replacement URIs resolve against BASE and the supplied
baseURI; OVERRIDE YES/NO maps to the prefer-public fallback. Unknown
keywords are skipped tolerantly. Feeds the same Resolver as the XML
catalog.
Part of #86
The compact-syntax name class * - nameClass now parses as anyName except
the subtracted class (the model already had anyNameExcept). ns:* - name
would need an nsName-except model case and is left as a refinement.
Part of #79
The RNC datatype parameter block xsd:int { minInclusive = "5" } is now
parsed into facets (previously skipped), matching the XML-syntax <param>
support. The facet mapping is shared by both parsers through a new
RelaxNGFacets helper.
Part of #79
<let> may now appear at schema and pattern level, not just in a rule.
Schema lets are evaluated once at the document root; pattern lets extend
them (also at the root); rule lets extend those at each context node. A
narrower-scope binding overrides a wider one of the same name.
Part of #80
A <data type=> pattern now carries a SimpleType (base + facets) rather
than a bare built-in, and its <param name=>value</param> children
populate the facets (minLength, maxLength, length, pattern, min/max
inclusive/exclusive, total/fraction digits), reusing the XSD datatype
facet validation. So a constrained datatype like xsd:string with
minLength rejects too-short values.
datatypeLibrary resolution, typed <value> comparison, and the RNC
datatype parameter blocks remain.
Part of #79
The validation framework already conforms to the OpenAPIKit idiom: named
composable Validation values, a Validator with blank/validating/
withoutValidating, located errors, parameterized over both subject and
document. The DTD layer is already four named rules.
XSD content validation stays a single recursive Validation
(contentValidity) rather than a rule per constraint, because XSD is a
recursive type system: a child's type is resolved from its parent's
content model and position, then rewritten by xsi:type and the derivation
controls mid-walk, so the constraint categories are interdependent and
cannot be split into independent rules without changing semantics or
duplicating the recursion. That is the sanctioned multi-error form.
To keep each category verifiable on its own (the idiom's testability),
add XSDCategoryTests exercising ComplexValidator directly per category
(attributes, content, nillable, fixed); derivation, wildcards, and
namespaces are already isolation-tested through crafted schema strings.
Closes#101
- cdataAsText emits a CDATA section's content as escaped text instead of
a <![CDATA[ ... ]]> section.
- asciiOnly escapes every non-ASCII character as a numeric character
reference, so the output is pure ASCII (libxml2's character-reference
encoding).
Both apply to the Serializer and the incremental Writer through the
shared Escaping rules.
Closes#91
An assert/report may reference <diagnostic> messages by id through its
diagnostics= attribute; each referenced diagnostic is rendered (with the
same value-of/name/let substitution) and appended to the finding for
extra per-failure detail. <diagnostics> is collected schema-wide.
Schema/pattern-level let, abstract patterns, and key()/document() remain.
Part of #80
A <rule abstract="true" id="x"> is a template that does not fire on its
own; a concrete rule pulls in its let bindings and assertions with
<extends rule="x"/>, prepended so the concrete rule extends rather than
replaces them.
Part of #80
<rule> may now declare <let name= value=> bindings, evaluated at each
context node in order (so a later binding can reference an earlier one
through $name). The bindings are available to the rule's assert/report
tests and to <value-of select="$name"> in messages, using the XPath
engine's existing variable support.
Schema- and pattern-level let, abstract rules/extends, diagnostics, and
key()/document() remain.
Part of #80
Catalog replacement URIs (uri, rewritePrefix, delegate/next catalog) are
now resolved against the catalog's base URI and any in-scope xml:base,
reusing the existing RFC 3986 URIReference resolver. Resolver(_:baseURI:)
supplies the catalog's own location; xml:base on the catalog/group/entry
elements scopes nested entries. An empty base leaves relative URIs as
written, so catalogs without a base behave exactly as before.
The legacy SGML catalog format and group-level prefer override remain.
Part of #86
Invisible ~~~ links did not reliably rank nodes vertically in GitHub's
Mermaid renderer, leaving the shipped nodes spread horizontally. Chain
every node with --> so flowchart TB stacks them in a single top-to-bottom
column.
The roadmap diagrams and status text were badly out of date. Rewrite the
second mermaid block from a single unreadable node into an accurate
#71-audit roadmap, refresh the shipped block, and chain every node into a
single vertical column so flowchart TB renders top-to-bottom rather than
fanning out wide.
Also correct the flagrantly stale prose: test count (135 to 506), the
false 'XSD/RELAX NG/Schematron remain open epics' and 'XPath 1.0 subset'
claims (all shipped), and replace the obsolete open-epics table with the
current #71 depth-gap work.
A define repeated with combine="choice" or combine="interleave" now
merges with the existing definition (as a choice or interleave pattern)
instead of the last one silently replacing it. A plain redefinition with
no combine still replaces. Applied consistently in a grammar and across
include merges.
<param> facets under <data>, datatypeLibrary resolution, typed <value>
comparison, and the RNC-syntax gaps remain.
Part of #79
- Eval-time prefix bindings: Query.evaluate(over:namespaces:) and
value(at:...:namespaces:) supply prefix to URI bindings, so a name test
like q:item resolves q to a URI and matches by namespace regardless of
the document's own prefix. The match is namespace-aware only when
bindings are present, so existing unprefixed/prefix-string queries are
unchanged.
- XPointer schemes: xpath1() evaluates an XPath expression (like
xpointer()), and xmlns(p=uri) binds a prefix for the expression parts
that follow it, threaded into the XPath evaluation.
The range() scheme (and so XInclude range inclusion) remains.
Part of #88
Three XInclude gaps from the audit:
- accept / accept-language / encoding are surfaced to the loader via a new
XIncludeRequest and a process(_:base:loading:) overload, so a loader can
honor content negotiation. The existing loadingURI form is kept.
- Cycle detection tracks the visited (resolved-URI) set along the current
inclusion chain and raises XIncludeError.cycle, instead of relying only
on the depth backstop; a non-cyclic diamond include is not flagged.
- parse="text" combined with an xpointer is rejected
(XIncludeError.textWithFragment), since a fragment cannot select within
unparsed text.
xpointer range() inclusion still depends on the XPointer range() scheme
(tracked in the XPointer issue).
