The compiler implements simplification 4.9-4.10 (ns inheritance across
ancestors and document boundaries; QName resolution against in-scope
xmlns declarations; the attribute name= shorthand stays namespace-less),
include brings in the included grammar's start with overrides (4.7),
multiple starts and defines combine with a single omitted combine
merging by the named method (4.17), data/except lands as a dataExcept
pattern in the derivative engine (4.12), an empty element matches data
whose lexical space admits the empty string, and whitespace-only
attribute values match empty-matching patterns. Spec suite: valid
274/289, invalid 279/291.
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.
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
Add the RELAX NG pattern algebra (Pattern, NameClass), a parser for the XML
syntax into a grammar of start plus named defines, and James Clark's
derivative validation algorithm. The pattern is derived through each
start-tag, attribute, text, and end-tag event with simplifying constructors;
the document is valid when the residual pattern is nullable. Supports
element, attribute, text, empty, notAllowed, group, choice, interleave,
optional, zeroOrMore, oneOrMore, mixed, list, ref/define, data, value, and
the name classes; handles interleave and recursive grammars, reusing the XSD
datatype library for data and value.
