Description Michael Dyck 2005-07-18 19:59:01 UTC 
5.12 Namespace Declaration

SCP
"A namespace declaration adds a new (prefix,uri) binding in the namespace
component of the static environment."
    Section 4.12 of the XQuery doc says:
        If the URILiteral part of a namespace declaration is a zero-length
        string, any existing namespace binding for the given prefix is
        removed from the statically known namespaces.
    This doesn't appear to be handled.
Comment 1 Jerome Simeon 2006-04-13 19:15:39 UTC 
Added the corresponding rule.

Comment 2 Michael Dyck 2006-10-05 03:16:10 UTC 
"In case the URILiteral part of a namespace declaration is a zero-length string, it is set as any #UNDECLARED in the static context."
    The word "any" is very odd there. Also, the word "it" doesn't have a clear
    antecedent. How about this:
        In case ... string, the namespace prefix is marked as #UNDECLARED in the
        static context.
Comment 3 Jerome Simeon 2006-11-09 22:51:33 UTC 
Fixed.
