6482 2009-01-28 11:58:33 +0000 [UPD] setToUntyped() and xml:id 2011-01-07 11:44:37 +0000 1 1 1 Unclassified XPath / XQuery / XSLT Update Facility Candidate Recommendation PC Windows NT CLOSED FIXED P2 normal --- 1 mike andrew.eisenberg jonathan.robie public-qt-comments oldest_to_newest 23267 0 mike 2009-01-28 11:58:33 +0000 A literal reading of setToUntyped() suggests that the is-id property is cleared for all attributes, including an attribute named xml:id. A number of tests in the test suite, for example setToUntyped-001, take the same interpretation. However, the data model specification states (twice): "The is-id property is always true for attributes named xml:id.". Admittedly it says this under "construction from an InfoSet" and "construction from a PSVI". However, the wording used strongly suggests that it is intended to be a universal rule. And certainly, it is a sensible rule: the whole point of xml:id is that IDness should be determined solely by the choice of attribute name. I believe that the update spec should treat this as a constraint, and ensure that the is-id property is always true for attributes named xml:id (whether these are existing attributes, newly created, or whatever.) [I have this rule very deeply hard-wired into my data model implementation, and I think it is reasonable to do so.] 23908 1 mike 2009-02-24 17:51:53 +0000 This change was accepted.

If $N is an attribute node, its properties are changed as follows: a. type-name is set to xs:untypedAtomic. b. typed-value is set equal to the string-value property, as an instance of xs:untypedAtomic. c. is-id and is-idrefs are set to false.

I believe the changes needed are as follows, and have committed these to CVS: setToUntyped-001. Result of empty(id("jff001", $var1/test[1])) changes from true to false. setToUptyped-002. Ditto. setToUntyped-003. Ditto. setToUntyped-004. Ditto. setToUntyped-005. Ditto. setToUntyped-006. Ditto. setToUntyped-007. Ditto.
