Hi I've been using Xerces-J 2-11 with support for XML Schema 1.1 (Xerces-J-bin.2.11.0-xml-schema-1.1-beta.zip)
I've noticed that it does not seem to treat the xsd:boolean value of "1" in the same way as it treats the value "true". "0" and "false" are treated correctly. This is in the context of assertions only, Xerces-J 2-11 without the schema 1.1 support seems to be ok. The example below demonstrates the issue. If 'success_ind' is true or 1 then the assertion should catch the error. The example below passes schema validation when it shouldn't <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <test:message xmlns:test="http://test/schema/v1" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://test/schema/v1 test.xsd"> <test:success_ind>1</test:success_ind> <test:error>Error details appear here</test:error> </test:message> This example below fails schema validation as expected <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <test:message xmlns:test="http://test/schema/v1" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://test/schema/v1 test.xsd"> <test:success_ind>true</test:success_ind> <test:error>Error details appear here</test:error> </test:message> Using the schema test.xsd with the appropriate assertion <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <xsd:schema xmlns:test="http://test/schema/v1" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" targetNamespace="http://test/schema/v1" elementFormDefault="qualified" attributeFormDefault="qualified" version="1.0"> <xsd:complexType name="Message"> <xsd:sequence> <xsd:element name="success_ind" type="xsd:boolean"/> <xsd:element name="error" type="xsd:string" minOccurs="0"/> </xsd:sequence> <xsd:assert test="if (test:success_ind = false()) then test:error else true()"/> <xsd:assert test="if (test:success_ind = true()) then not(test:error) else true()"/> </xsd:complexType> <xsd:element name="message" type="test:Message"/> </xsd:schema> Sample Code public boolean xmlValidate(String xmlFile, String schemaFile) { boolean valid = true; File validatingXMLFile = new File(xmlFile); File schemaXMLFile = new File(schemaFile); try { StreamSource schemaDocument = new StreamSource(schemaXMLFile); Source instanceDocument = new StreamSource(validatingXMLFile); SchemaFactory sf = SchemaFactory.newInstance("http://www.w3.org/XML/XMLSchema/v1.1"); Schema s = sf.newSchema(schemaDocument); Validator v = s.newValidator(); v.validate(instanceDocument); System.out.println(xmlFile + " is valid"); } catch (Exception e) { System.out.println(xmlFile + " is not valid, exception=" + e.getMessage()); return false; } return valid; } Can someone get back to me and let me know if this is a bug please?
