- atomic
-
From XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes (2001-05-02)
A datatype definition (or the simple ur-type definition).
- basic readability:
-
From XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes (2001-05-02)
Textual, rather than binary, literals are used. This makes hand editing, debugging, and similar activities possible.
- collapse
-
From XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes (2001-05-02)
After the processing implied by replace, contiguous sequences of #x20's are collapsed to a single #x20, and leading and trailing #x20's are removed.
- constraint onstraint
-
From XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes (2001-05-02)
Constraints on the schema components themselves, i.e. conditions components satisfy to be components at all. Largely to be found in .
- ease of parsing and serializing:
-
From XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes (2001-05-02)
Where possible, literals correspond to those found in common programming languages and libraries.
- error
-
From XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes (2001-05-02)
A violation of the rules of this specification; results are undefined. Conforming software detect and report an error and recover from it.
- for compatibility
-
From XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes (2001-05-02)
A feature of this specification included solely to ensure that schemas which use this feature remain compatible with
- interoperability:
-
From XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes (2001-05-02)
The number of literals for each value has been kept small; for many datatypes there is a one-to-one mapping between literals and values. This makes it easy to exchange the values between different systems. In many cases, conversion from locale-dependent representations will be required on both the originator and the recipient side, both for computer processing and for interaction with humans.
- list
-
From XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes (2001-05-02)
An or simple type definition.
- match
-
From XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes (2001-05-02)
(Of strings or names:) Two strings or names being compared must be identical. Characters with multiple possible representations in ISO/IEC 10646 (e.g. characters with both precomposed and base+diacritic forms) match only if they have the same representation in both strings. No case folding is performed. (Of strings and rules in the grammar:) A string matches a grammatical production if it belongs to the language generated by that production.
- may
-
From XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes (2001-05-02)
Conforming documents and processors are permitted to but need not behave as described.
- must
-
From XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes (2001-05-02)
Conforming documents and processors are required to behave as described; otherwise they are in error.
- otherwise
-
From XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes (2001-05-02)
a set with members drawn from the set above, each being present or absent depending on whether the string contains an equivalently named space-delimited substring.Although the finalDefault attribute of schema may include values other than restriction, list or union, those values are ignored in the determination of
- preserve
-
From XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes (2001-05-02)
No normalization is done, the value is not changed (this is the behavior required by for element content)
- replace
-
From XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes (2001-05-02)
All occurrences of #x9 (tab), #xA (line feed) and #xD (carriage return) are replaced with #x20 (space)
- schema representation constraint
-
From XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes (2001-05-02)
Constraints on the representation of schema components in XML. Some but not all of these are expressed in and .
- the empty string
-
From XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes (2001-05-02)
the empty set;
- union
-
From XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes (2001-05-02)
A non-empty sequence of simple type definitions.
- validation rule
-
From XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes (2001-05-02)
Constraints expressed by schema components which information items satisfy to be schema-valid. Largely to be found in .
