Section 5.1 states: The form of the constructor function for a type prefix:TYPE is: prefix:TYPE($arg as xs:anyAtomicType?) as prefix:TYPE? Under the static typing feature the example should raise a type check error, as xs:date and xs:time have return types xs:date? and xs:time? respectively. In order for the example to make sense (and to be consistent with other constructor functions) fn:dateTime should have the following signature: fn:dateTime($arg1 as xs:date?, $arg2 as xs:time?) as xs:dateTime? and it should return the empty sequence if either of the parameters are the empty sequence. 11647 1 frans.englich 2006-09-13 11:56:23 +0000 The resolution of 3717 could solve this report. 11788 2 andrew.eisenberg 2006-09-15 17:54:29 +0000 The XSL and XML Query WGs considered this issue at their Sept. 12 meeting. The WGs agree with the changes that you have suggested: - fn:dateTime should have the following signature: fn:dateTime($arg1 as xs:date?, $arg2 as xs:time?) as xs:dateTime? - the function will return the empty sequence if either of the parameters are the empty sequence Please close this bug report if you agree with our resolution. 11951 3 tim 2006-09-22 10:18:37 +0000 Thanks. 12300 4 mike 2006-10-05 09:23:36 +0000 *** Bug 1471 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
