xmlsch-02 whitespace facet discussion from Jeremy Carroll on 2003-05-09 (w3c-rdfcore-wg@w3.org from May 2003) (original) (raw)

I think we could go in either of two directions:

A: accept the comment "worried that it may not be obvious that the whitespace processing is not part of the process of checking lexical forms for type validity," and add test cases to demonstrate that whitespace is significant even inside typed literals of types which in a XML Schema context would get processed away (such as the integer examples)

PROPOSE RDF Core accepts the comment xmlsch-02 and agree to add the following test case:

<rdf:Description rdf:about="http://www.example.org/a"> <eg:prop rdf:datatype="&xsd;int">3

Does not entail

<rdf:Description rdf:about="http://www.example.org/a"> <eg:prop rdf:datatype="&xsd;int"> 3

Moreover the following comment to be added to concepts:

[[ NOTE: In [XML Schema (part 1)], white space normalization occurs during validation according to the value of the whiteSpace facet. The lexical-to-value mapping used in RDF datatyping occurs after this, so that the whiteSpace facet has no effect in RDF datatyping. ]]
