Description Frans Englich 2005-08-25 20:44:35 UTC 
With the April drafts as background:  
  
err:XPTY0006 in "XML Path Language (XPath) 2.0" is declared as "(Not currently  
used.)", but "XQuery 1.0 and XPath 2.0 Functions and Operators, 2.5  
fn:base-uri" reads:  
  
"If the context item is not a node, an error is raised:[err:XPTY0006]XP"  
  
From what I can tell, the description of the XPTY0006 error needs to be  
updated.  
 
(The review period is over and all that, but better safe than sorry.) 
 
  
Cheers,  
Frans
Comment 1 Don Chamberlin 2005-08-26 17:59:41 UTC 
This was an error in the F&O specification. It has been corrected in a later 
version (to be published soon). The correct error code is FOTY0011, "Context 
item is not a node."
