According the schema errata [1], the '-' is no longer a valid character
range.

Re: Problem with validating string

XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes: F Regular Expressions
http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-2/#dt-regex contains the following: "A
single XML character is a �character range� that identifies the set of
characters containing only itself. All XML characters are valid character
ranges, except as follows: [...] The - character is a valid character
range only at the beginning or end of a �positive character group�."
This seems to indicate that the pattern is valid, and contains upper and
lower case characters, digits, the underscore and the dash. This would be
consistent with other implementations of regular expressions.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Regards,
Jeroen.
