Subject: [xliff] FWD: XLIFF 1.2
Schema(s) xpath expression issue

 

Hi Bryan and Doug: 

 

As the editors of the XLIFF
XSD's, could you guys please have a look at this email from Asgeir and figure
out if we need to revise the XSD or otherwise address the issue? Input from the
TC is encouraged. It seems clear cut but I didn't want to introduce any
problems by editing without consulting your expertise.

 

Doug's been the most recent
schema editor, so we should maintain continuity at this stage of the game
unless he's unavailable.

 

Many thanks to Asgeir for
his input...

 

Thanks,

Tony

Subject: XLIFF 1.2 Schema(s) xpath expression issue

 

Hi Tony,

 

A small issue in the XLIFF
1.2 schema that causes some issues when

validating the schema
itself:

 

(Starting from line 2030 in
strict, 2051 in transitional)

          <xsd:keyref
name="KR_tu_segsrc_mid" refer="xlf:U_tu_segsrc_mid">

              <xsd:selector
xpath="./xlf:target/xlf:mrk | ./xlf:alt-trans"/>

              <xsd:field
xpath="@mid"/>

          </xsd:keyref>

 

The regular expression for
the xpath attribute is according to the XML

Schema xsd:

(\.//)?(((child::)?((\i\c*:)?(\i\c*|\*)))|\.)(/(((child::)?((\i\c*:)?(\i\c*|\*)))|\.))*(\|(\.//)?(((child::)?((\i\c*:)?(\i\c*|\*)))|\.)(/(((child::)?((\i\c*:)?(\i\c*|\*)))|\.))*)*

 

It seems that unlike other
xpath expressions, the spec does not allow

spaces between operators
like '|'. Hence, the above xpath expression

should have the spaces
between '|' removed (as it is in all other

occurrences in the XLIFF
schema).

 

cheers,

asgeir
