This is illustrated by test json-to-xml-046, which is not able to test the precise type annotation on an element node because the most precise type is anonymous. I therefore propose that in schema-for-json.xsd we replace all anonymous types by named types. (No change is needed to analyze-string.xsd because it already follows this convention.) The change does not affect any existing queries, nor does it affect the validation of instances; it purely makes more precise type information available for use in queries and stylesheets. 123532 1 mike 2015-10-06 17:34:00 +0000 The changes were approved, and have been applied. 123535 2 mike 2015-10-06 17:48:40 +0000 The test json-to-xml-046 has also been updated.
