This is an archived snapshot of W3C's public bugzilla bug tracker, decommissioned in April 2019. Please see the home page for more details.
The following example is invalid according to the definition of maxExclusive, which states that "The value of maxExclusive must be in the value space of the base type": <xs:simpleType name="foo"> <xs:restriction base="xs:float">> <xs:maxExclusive value="5"/> </xs:restriction> </xs:simpleType> <xs:simpleType name="bar"> <xs:restriction base="foo"> <xs:maxExclusive value="5"/> </xs:restriction> </xs:simpleType> Should the example be valid if "fixed" is specified for maxExclusive in the base?

At the 12/20/2001 telecon, the WG decided to treat R-75 as an error and to instruct the editor to change the text to specify that the value of maxExclusive must be in the value space of the base type, or else the same value as the effective maxExclusive facet of the base type (if any). April 5: proposed erratum approved by WG. Erratum E2-39 has been added to the errata doc.
