Description Michael Kay 2006-12-09 23:42:20 UTC 
In the Microsoft IdentityConstraint test idH031, the node selected by the field selector in an identity constraint has a complex type with simple content, and the test considers this to be valid.

The specification requires that the field has a simple type. See Validation Rule: Identity-constraint Satisfied, clause 3.

This is arguably an error in the spec, but the spec does say quite clearly that it must be a simple type, which rules out a complex type with simple content.
Comment 1 Michael Kay 2006-12-09 23:47:11 UTC 
Also applies to

idK011
idL076
idL077
Comment 2 Michael Champion 2007-01-20 17:26:56 UTC 
It was discussed on the xmlschema-dev forum at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/xmlschema-dev/2003Feb/0025.html and the conclusion was that identity constraints are supposed to work on SimpleContent as well.

Comment 3 Michael Kay 2008-06-21 16:52:22 UTC 
Noted that this has changed in 1.1 to allow a complex type with simple content.

Bug #5780 has been raised against the 1.0 spec.

We will leave this bug open making it dependent on 5780.
Comment 4 David Ezell 2010-02-26 16:26:47 UTC 
WG decided:
Duplicate idH031, mark the duplicate stable and 1.1 only. (Action to HT.)
Comment 5 David Ezell 2010-02-26 16:28:26 UTC 
WG decided (addendum):

take tests:
idH031
idK011
idL076
idL077

create a duplicate of each, and mark the duplicate stable and 1.1 only.
(Action to HT.)
Comment 6 Henry S. Thompson 2010-04-05 15:21:24 UTC 
1.1-only copies created, with names idH031a, idK011a. idL076a, idL077a
Comment 7 Henry S. Thompson 2010-04-05 15:21:31 UTC 
Made stable 1.1-only copies named idH031a, idK011a, idL076a, idL077a
