Description Martin Probst 2005-12-12 15:48:53 UTC 
CastAs080 and CastAs162 test for implementation defined behaviour. 

http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath-functions/#casting-from-strings
"For xs:anyURI, the extent to which an implementation validates the lexical form
of xs:anyURI is ·implementation dependent·."
Comment 1 Martin Probst 2005-12-12 15:51:52 UTC 
Same goes for CastableAs080 and CastableAs162
Comment 2 Carmelo Montanez 2006-01-26 18:21:32 UTC 
Should the "compare" attribute for thsi be set to "Inspect", if so I can make 
the change.

Comment 3 Martin Probst 2006-01-27 08:44:32 UTC 
I don't think it should test for implementation defined behaviour at all, should
it? After all, it's supposed to test for conformance to the standard, so if this
aspect is not standardized, it should not be tested.
Comment 4 Joanne Tong 2006-01-27 13:36:24 UTC 
I agree.  I'll replace these cast expressions with URIs that will definately 
validate.

thanks,
Joanne
