AbstractXML Schema: Datatypes is part 2 of the specification of the XML Schema language. It defines facilities for defining datatypes to be used in XML Schemas as well as other XML specifications. The datatype language, which is itself represented in XML 1.0, provides a superset of the capabilities found in XML 1.0 document type definitions (DTDs) for specifying datatypes on elements and attributes.

1 Introduction1.1 PurposeThe [XML 1.0 (Second Edition)] specification defines limited facilities for applying datatypes to document content in that documents may contain or refer to DTDs that assign types to elements and attributes. However, document authors, including authors of traditional documents and those transporting data in XML, often require a higher degree of type checking to ensure robustness in document understanding and data interchange.
The table below offers two typical examples of XML instances in which datatypes are implicit: the instance on the left represents a billing invoice, the instance on the right a memo or perhaps an email message in XML.
Data orientedDocument oriented<invoice> <orderDate>1999-01-21</orderDate> <shipDate>1999-01-25</shipDate> <billingAddress> <name>Ashok Malhotra</name> <street>123 Microsoft Ave.</street> <city>Hawthorne</city> <state>NY</state> <zip>10532-0000</zip> </billingAddress> <voice>555-1234</voice> <fax>555-4321</fax></invoice>
<memo importance='high' date='1999-03-23'> <from>Paul V. Biron</from> <to>Ashok Malhotra</to> <subject>Latest draft</subject> <body> We need to discuss the latest draft <emph>immediately</emph>. Either email me at <email> mailto:paul.v.biron@kp.org</email> or call <phone>555-9876</phone> </body></memo>
The invoice contains several dates and telephone numbers, the postal abbreviation for a state (which comes from an enumerated list of sanctioned values), and a ZIP code (which takes a definable regular form). The memo contains many of the same types of information: a date, telephone number, email address and an "importance" value (from an enumerated list, such as "low", "medium" or "high"). Applications which process invoices and memos need to raise exceptions if something that was supposed to be a date or telephone number does not conform to the rules for valid dates or telephone numbers.
In both cases, validity constraints exist on the content of the instances that are not expressible in XML DTDs. The limited datatyping facilities in XML have prevented validating XML processors from supplying the rigorous type checking required in these situations. The result has been that individual applications writers have had to implement type checking in an ad hoc manner. This specification addresses the need of both document authors and applications writers for a robust, extensible datatype system for XML which could be incorporated into XML processors. As discussed below, these datatypes could be used in other XML-related standards as well.
1.2 RequirementsThe [XML Schema Requirements] document spells out concrete requirements to be fulfilled by this specification, which state that the XML Schema Language must:define a type system that is adequate for import/export from database systems (e.g., relational, object, OLAP); distinguish requirements relating to lexical data representation vs. those governing an underlying information set; allow creation of user-defined datatypes, such as datatypes that are derived from existing datatypes and which may constrain certain of its properties (e.g., range, precision, length, format).
1.3 ScopeThis portion of the XML Schema Language discusses datatypes that can be used in an XML Schema. These datatypes can be specified for element content that would be specified as #PCDATA and attribute values of various types in a DTD. It is the intention of this specification that it be usable outside of the context of XML Schemas for a wide range of other XML-related activities such as [XSL] and [RDF Schema]. 1.4 TerminologyThe terminology used to describe XML Schema Datatypes is defined in the body of this specification. The terms defined in the following list are used in building those definitions and in describing the actions of a datatype processor:A feature of this specification included solely to ensure that schemas which use this feature remain compatible with [XML 1.0 (Second Edition)] Conforming documents and processors are permitted to but need not behave as described. (Of strings or names:) Two strings or names being compared must be identical. Characters with multiple possible representations in ISO/IEC 10646 (e.g. characters with both precomposed and base+diacritic forms) match only if they have the same representation in both strings. No case folding is performed. (Of strings and rules in the grammar:) A string matches a grammatical production if it belongs to the language generated by that production. Conforming documents and processors are required to behave as described; otherwise they are in A violation of the rules of this specification; results are undefined. Conforming software error and 1.5 Constraints and ContributionsThis specification provides three different kinds of normative statements about schema components, their representations in XML and their contribution to the schema-validation of information items:
Constraint on Schemas Constraints on the schema components themselves, i.e. conditions components Schema Representation Constraint Constraints on the representation of schema components in XML. Some but not all of these are expressed in Schema for Datatype Definitions (normative) (§A) and DTD for Datatype Definitions (non-normative) (§B). Validation Rule Constraints expressed by schema components which information items 2 Type SystemThis section describes the conceptual framework behind the type system defined in this specification. The framework has been influenced by the [ISO 11404] standard on language-independent datatypes as well as the datatypes for [SQL] and for programming languages such as Java.
The datatypes discussed in this specification are computer representations of well known abstract concepts such as integer and date. It is not the place of this specification to define these abstract concepts; many other publications provide excellent definitions.

For example, "100" and "1.0E2" are two different literals from the
Note: The literals in the The number of literals for each value has been kept small; for many datatypes there is a one-to-one mapping between literals and values. This makes it easy to exchange the values between different systems. In many cases, conversion from locale-dependent representations will be required on both the originator and the recipient side, both for computer processing and for interaction with humans. Textual, rather than binary, literals are used. This makes hand editing, debugging, and similar activities possible. Where possible, literals correspond to those found in common programming languages and libraries. 2.3.1 Canonical Lexical RepresentationWhile the datatypes defined in this specification have, for the most part, a single lexical representation i.e. each value in the datatype's

Note: Many human languages have writing systems that require child elements for control of aspects such as bidirectional formating or ruby annotation (see [Ruby] and Section 8.2.4 Overriding the bidirectional algorithm: the BDO element of [HTML 4.01]). Thus, string, as a simple type that can contain only characters but not child elements, is often not suitable for representing text. In such situations, a complex type that allows mixed content should be considered. For more information, see Section 5.5 Any Element, Any Attribute of [XML Schema Language: Part 0 Primer].

Precision is not reflected in this value space; the number 2.0 is not distinct from the number 2.00. The decimal is the order relation on real numbers, restricted to this subset.
Note: All 3.2.3.1 Lexical representationdecimal has a lexical representation consisting of a finite-length sequence of decimal digits (#x30-#x39) separated by a period as a decimal indicator. An optional leading sign is allowed. If the sign is omitted, "+" is assumed. Leading and trailing zeroes are optional. If the fractional part is zero, the period and following zero(es) can be omitted. For example: -1.23, 12678967.543233, +100000.00, 210.
3.2.3.2 Canonical representationThe canonical representation for decimal is defined by prohibiting certain options from the Lexical representation (§3.2.3.1). Specifically, the preceding optional "+" sign is prohibited. The decimal point is required. Leading and trailing zeroes are prohibited subject to the following: there must be at least one digit to the right and to the left of the decimal point which may be a zero.

In addition to the basic float also contains the following three special values: positive and negative infinity and not-a-number (NaN). The float is: x < y iff y - x is positive for x and y in the value space. Positive infinity is greater than all other non-NaN values. NaN equals itself but is

The special values positive and negative infinity and not-a-number have lexical representations INF, -INF and NaN, respectively. Lexical representations for zero may take a positive or negative sign.
For example, -1E4, 1267.43233E12, 12.78e-2, 12 , -0, 0 and INF are all legal literals for float.
3.2.4.2 Canonical representationThe canonical representation for float is defined by prohibiting certain options from the Lexical representation (§3.2.4.1). Specifically, the exponent must be indicated by "E". Leading zeroes and the preceding optional "+" sign are prohibited in the exponent. If the exponent is zero, it must be indicated by "E0". For the mantissa, the preceding optional "+" sign is prohibited and the decimal point is required. Leading and trailing zeroes are prohibited subject to the following: number representations must be normalized such that there is a single digit which is non-zero to the left of the decimal point and at least a single digit to the right of the decimal point unless the value being represented is zero. The canonical representation for zero is 0.0E0.

The basic double consists of the values m × 2^e, where m is an integer whose absolute value is less than 2^53, and e is an integer between -1075 and 970, inclusive. In addition to the basic double also contains the following three special values: positive and negative infinity and not-a-number (NaN). The double is: x < y iff y - x is positive for x and y in the value space. Positive infinity is greater than all other non-NaN values. NaN equals itself but is

A literal in the d maps to the normalized value in the double that is closest to d; if d is exactly halfway between two such values then the even value is chosen. This is the best approximation of d ([Clinger, WD (1990)], [Gay, DM (1990)]), which is more accurate than the mapping required by [IEEE 754-1985].

3.2.5.2 Canonical representationThe canonical representation for double is defined by prohibiting certain options from the Lexical representation (§3.2.5.1). Specifically, the exponent must be indicated by "E". Leading zeroes and the preceding optional "+" sign are prohibited in the exponent. If the exponent is zero, it must be indicated by "E0". For the mantissa, the preceding optional "+" sign is prohibited and the decimal point is required. Leading and trailing zeroes are prohibited subject to the following: number representations must be normalized such that there is a single digit which is non-zero to the left of the decimal point and at least a single digit to the right of the decimal point unless the value being represented is zero. The canonical representation for zero is 0.0E0.

The duration is a six-dimensional space where the coordinates designate the Gregorian year, month, day, hour, minute, and second components defined in § 5.5.3.2 of [ISO 8601], respectively. These components are ordered in their significance by their order of appearance i.e. as year, month, day, hour, minute, and second.
YYYY) and a minimum fractional second precision of milliseconds or three decimal digits (i.e. s.sss). However, 3.2.6.1 Lexical representationThe lexical representation for duration is the [ISO 8601] extended format PnYn MnDTnH nMnS, where nY represents the number of years, nM the number of months, nD the number of days, 'T' is the date/time separator, nH the number of hours, nM the number of minutes and nS the number of seconds. The number of seconds can include decimal digits to arbitrary precision.
The values of the Year, Month, Day, Hour and Minutes components are not restricted but allow an arbitrary unsigned integer, i.e., an integer that conforms to the pattern [0-9]+.. Similarly, the value of the Seconds component allows an arbitrary unsigned decimal. Following [ISO 8601], at least one digit must follow the decimal point if it appears. That is, the value of the Seconds component must conform to the pattern [0-9]+(\.[0-9]+)?. Thus, the lexical representation of duration does not follow the alternative format of § 5.5.3.2.1 of [ISO 8601].
An optional preceding minus sign ('-') is allowed, to indicate a negative duration. If the sign is omitted a positive duration is indicated. See also ISO 8601 Date and Time Formats (§D).
For example, to indicate a duration of 1 year, 2 months, 3 days, 10 hours, and 30 minutes, one would write: P1Y2M3DT10H30M. One could also indicate a duration of minus 120 days as: -P120D.
Reduced precision and truncated representations of this format are allowed provided they conform to the following:
If the number of years, months, days, hours, minutes, or seconds in any expression equals zero, the number and its corresponding designator The seconds part The designator 'T' must be absent if and only if all of the time items are absent. The designator 'P' must always be present. For example, P1347Y, P1347M and P1Y2MT2H are all allowed; P0Y1347M and P0Y1347M0D are allowed. P-1347M is not allowed although -P1347M is allowed. P1Y2MT is not allowed.
3.2.6.2 Order relation on durationIn general, the duration is a partial order since there is no determinate relationship between certain durations such as one month (P1M) and 30 days (P30D). The duration values x and y is x < y iff s+x < s+y for each qualified dateTime s in the list below. These values for s cause the greatest deviations in the addition of dateTimes and durations. Addition of durations to time instants is defined in Adding durations to dateTimes (§E).

The following table shows the strongest relationship that can be determined between example durations. The symbol <> means that the order relation is indeterminate. Note that because of leap-seconds, a seconds field can vary from 59 to 60. However, because of the way that addition is defined in Adding durations to dateTimes (§E), they are still totally ordered.

year, monthday, hour, minute, secondFor example, a datatype could be defined to correspond to the [SQL] datatype Year-Month interval that required a four digit year field and a two digit month field but required all other fields to be unspecified. This datatype could be defined as below and would have a total order.

patternenumerationwhiteSpacemaxInclusivemaxExclusiveminInclusiveminExclusive3.2.7 dateTimedateTime values may be viewed as objects with integer-valued year, month, day, hour and minute properties, a decimal-valued second property, and a boolean timezoned property. Each such object also has one decimal-valued method or computed property, timeOnTimeline, whose value is always a decimal number; the values are dimensioned in seconds, the integer 0 is 0001-01-01T00:00:00 and the value of timeOnTimeline for other dateTime values is computed using the Gregorian algorithm as modified for leap-seconds. The timeOnTimeline values form two related "timelines", one for timezoned values and one for non-timezoned values. Each timeline is a copy of the
The dateTime is closely related to the dates and times described in ISO 8601. For clarity, the text above specifies a particular origin point for the timeline. It should be noted, however, that schema processors need not expose the timeOnTimeline value to schema users, and there is no requirement that a timeline-based implementation use the particular origin described here in its internal representation. Other interpretations of the
All timezoned times are Coordinated Universal Time (UTC, sometimes called "Greenwich Mean Time"). Other timezones indicated in lexical representations are converted to UTC during conversion of literals to values. "Local" or untimezoned times are presumed to be the time in the timezone of some unspecified locality as prescribed by the appropriate legal authority; currently there are no legally prescribed timezones which are durations whose magnitude is greater than 14 hours. The value of each numeric-valued property (other than timeOnTimeline) is limited to the maximum value within the interval determined by the next-higher property. For example, the day value can never be 32, and cannot even be 29 for month 02 and year 2002 (February 2002).
Those using this (1.0) version of this Recommendation to represent negative years should be aware that the interpretation of lexical representations beginning with a '-' is likely to change in subsequent versions.
[ISO 8601] makes no mention of the year 0; in [ISO 8601:1998 Draft Revision] the form '0000' was disallowed and this recommendation disallows it as well. However, [ISO 8601:2000 Second Edition], which became available just as we were completing version 1.0, allows the form '0000', representing the year 1 BCE. A number of external commentators have also suggested that '0000' be allowed, as the lexical representation for 1 BCE, which is the normal usage in astronomical contexts. It is the intention of the XML Schema Working Group to allow '0000' as a lexical representation in the dateTime, date, gYear, and gYearMonth datatypes in a subsequent version of this Recommendation. '0000' will be the lexical representation of 1 BCE (which is a leap year), '-0001' will become the lexical representation of 2 BCE (not 1 BCE as in this (1.0) version), '-0002' of 3 BCE, etc.
Note: See the conformance note in (§3.2.6) which applies to this datatype as well.3.2.7.1 Lexical representationThe dateTime consists of finite-length sequences of characters of the form: '-'? yyyy '-' mm '-' dd 'T' hh ':' mm ':' ss ('.' s+)? (zzzzzz)?, where
'-'? yyyy is a four-or-more digit optionally negative-signed numeral that represents the year; if more than four digits, leading zeros are prohibited, and '0000' is prohibited (see the Note above (§3.2.7); also note that a plus sign is not permitted);the remaining '-'s are separators between parts of the date portion;the first mm is a two-digit numeral that represents the month;dd is a two-digit numeral that represents the day;'T' is a separator indicating that time-of-day follows;hh is a two-digit numeral that represents the hour; '24' is permitted if the minutes and seconds represented are zero, and the dateTime value so represented is the first instant of the following day (the hour property of a dateTime object in the ':' is a separator between parts of the time-of-day portion;the second mm is a two-digit numeral that represents the minute;ss is a two-integer-digit numeral that represents the whole seconds;'.' s+ (if present) represents the fractional seconds;zzzzzz (if present) represents the timezone (as described below).For example, 2002-10-10T12:00:00-05:00 (noon on 10 October 2002, Central Daylight Savings Time as well as Eastern Standard Time in the U.S.) is 2002-10-10T17:00:00Z, five hours later than 2002-10-10T12:00:00Z.
For further guidance on arithmetic with dateTimes and durations, see Adding durations to dateTimes (§E).
3.2.7.2 Canonical representationExcept for trailing fractional zero digits in the seconds representation, '24:00:00' time representations, and timezone (for timezoned values), the mapping from literals to values is one-to-one. Where there is more than one possible representation, the canonical representation is as follows:
The 2-digit numeral representing the hour must not be '24';The fractional second string, if present, must not end in '0';for timezoned values, the timezone must be represented with 'Z' (All timezoned dateTime values are UTC.).
3.2.7.3 TimezonesTimezones are durations with (integer-valued) hour and minute properties (with the hour magnitude limited to at most 14, and the minute magnitude limited to at most 59, except that if the hour magnitude is 14, the minute value must be 0); they may be both positive or both negative.
The lexical representation of a timezone is a string of the form: (('+' | '-') hh ':' mm) | 'Z', where
hh is a two-digit numeral (with leading zeros as required) that represents the hours,mm is a two-digit numeral that represents the minutes,'+' indicates a nonnegative duration,'-' indicates a nonpositive duration.The mapping so defined is one-to-one, except that '+00:00', '-00:00', and 'Z' all represent the same zero-length duration timezone, UTC; 'Z' is its canonical representation.
When a timezone is added to a UTC dateTime, the result is the date and time "in that timezone". For example, 2002-10-10T12:00:00+05:00 is 2002-10-10T07:00:00Z and 2002-10-10T00:00:00+05:00 is 2002-10-09T19:00:00Z.
3.2.7.4 Order relation on dateTimedateTime value objects on either timeline are totally ordered by their timeOnTimeline values; between the two timelines, dateTime value objects are ordered by their timeOnTimeline values when their timeOnTimeline values differ by more than fourteen hours, with those whose difference is a duration of 14 hours or less being
In general, the dateTime is a partial order since there is no determinate relationship between certain instants. For example, there is no determinate ordering between (a) 2000-01-20T12:00:00 and (b) 2000-01-20T12:00:00Z. Based on timezones currently in use, (c) could vary from 2000-01-20T12:00:00+12:00 to 2000-01-20T12:00:00-13:00. It is, however, possible for this range to expand or contract in the future, based on local laws. Because of this, the following definition uses a somewhat broader range of indeterminate values: +14:00..-14:00.
The following definition uses the notation S[year] to represent the year field of S, S[month] to represent the month field, and so on. The notation (Q & "-14:00") means adding the timezone -14:00 to Q, where Q did not already have a timezone. This is a logical explanation of the process. Actual implementations are free to optimize as long as they produce the same results.
The ordering between two dateTimes P and Q is defined by the following algorithm:
A.Normalize P and Q. That is, if there is a timezone present, but it is not Z, convert it to Z using the addition operation defined in Adding durations to dateTimes (§E)
Thus 2000-03-04T23:00:00+03:00 normalizes to 2000-03-04T20:00:00ZB. If P and Q either both have a time zone or both do not have a time zone, compare P and Q field by field from the year field down to the second field, and return a result as soon as it can be determined. That is:
If P[i] is not specified and Q[i] is, or vice versa, stop and return P <> QIf P[i] < Q[i], stop and return P < QIf P[i] > Q[i], stop and return P > QStop and return P = QC.Otherwise, if P contains a time zone and Q does not, compare as follows:
P > Q if P > (Q with time zone -14:00)P <> Q otherwise, that is, if (Q with time zone +14:00) < P < (Q with time zone -14:00)D. Otherwise, if P does not contain a time zone and Q does, compare as follows:
P > Q if (P with time zone +14:00) > Q.P <> Q otherwise, that is, if (P with time zone +14:00) < Q < (P with time zone -14:00)Examples:

3.2.7.5 Totally ordered dateTimesCertain derived types from dateTime can be guaranteed have a total order. To do so, they must require that a specific set of fields are always specified, and that remaining fields (if any) are always unspecified. For example, the date datatype without time zone is defined to contain exactly year, month, and day. Thus dates without time zone have a total order among themselves.

patternenumerationwhiteSpacemaxInclusivemaxExclusiveminInclusiveminExclusive3.2.8 timetime is the space of time of day values as defined in § 5.3 of [ISO 8601]. Specifically, it is a set of zero-duration daily time instances.
Since the lexical representation allows an optional time zone indicator, time values are partially ordered because it may not be able to determine the order of two values one of which has a time zone and the other does not. The order relation on time values is the Order relation on dateTime (§3.2.7.4) using an arbitrary date. See also Adding durations to dateTimes (§E). Pairs of time values with or without time zone indicators are totally ordered.
Note: See the conformance note in (§3.2.6) which applies to the seconds part of this datatype as well.3.2.8.1 Lexical representationThe lexical representation for time is the left truncated lexical representation for dateTime: hh:mm:ss.sss with optional following time zone indicator. For example, to indicate 1:20 pm for Eastern Standard Time which is 5 hours behind Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), one would write: 13:20:00-05:00. See also ISO 8601 Date and Time Formats (§D).
3.2.8.2 Canonical representationThe canonical representation for time is defined by prohibiting certain options from the Lexical representation (§3.2.8.1). Specifically, either the time zone must be omitted or, if present, the time zone must be Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) indicated by a "Z". Additionally, the canonical representation for midnight is 00:00:00.

patternenumerationwhiteSpacemaxInclusivemaxExclusiveminInclusiveminExclusive3.2.9 datedate consists of top-open intervals of exactly one day in length on the timelines of dateTime, beginning on the beginning moment of each day (in each timezone), i.e. '00:00:00', up to but not including '24:00:00' (which is identical with '00:00:00' of the next day). For nontimezoned values, the top-open intervals disjointly cover the nontimezoned timeline, one per day. For timezoned values, the intervals begin at every minute and therefore overlap.
A "date object" is an object with year, month, and day properties just like those of dateTime objects, plus an optional timezone-valued timezone property. (As with values of dateTime timezones are a special case of durations.) Just as a dateTime object corresponds to a point on one of the timelines, a date object corresponds to an interval on one of the two timelines as just described.
Timezoned date values track the starting moment of their day, as determined by their timezone; said timezone is generally recoverable for canonical representations. recoverable timezone is that duration which is the result of subtracting the first moment (or any moment) of the timezoned date from the first moment (or the corresponding moment) UTC on the same date. date
For example: the first moment of 2002-10-10+13:00 is 2002-10-10T00:00:00+13, which is 2002-10-09T11:00:00Z, which is also the first moment of 2002-10-09-11:00. Therefore 2002-10-10+13:00 is 2002-10-09-11:00; they are the same interval.
Note: For most timezones, either the first moment or last moment of the day (a dateTime value, always UTC) will have a date portion different from that of the date itself! However, noon of that date (the midpoint of the interval) in that (normalized) timezone will always have the same date portion as the date itself, even when that noon point in time is normalized to UTC. For example, 2002-10-10-05:00 begins during 2002-10-09Z and 2002-10-10+05:00 ends during 2002-10-11Z, but noon of both 2002-10-10-05:00 and 2002-10-10+05:00 falls in the interval which is 2002-10-10Z. Note: See the conformance note in (§3.2.6) which applies to the year part of this datatype as well.3.2.9.1 Lexical representationFor the following discussion, let the "date portion" of a dateTime or date object be an object similar to a dateTime or date object, with similar year, month, and day properties, but no others, having the same value for these properties as the original dateTime or date object.
The date consists of finite-length sequences of characters of the form: '-'? yyyy '-' mm '-' dd zzzzzz? where the date and optional timezone are represented exactly the same way as they are for dateTime. The first moment of the interval is that represented by: '-' yyyy '-' mm '-' dd 'T00:00:00' zzzzzz? and the least upper bound of the interval is the timeline point represented (noncanonically) by: '-' yyyy '-' mm '-' dd 'T24:00:00' zzzzzz?.
Note: The date will always be a duration between '+12:00' and '11:59'. Timezone lexical representations, as explained for dateTime, can range from '+14:00' to '-14:00'. The result is that literals of dates with very large or very negative timezones will map to a "normalized" date value with a date itself. 3.2.9.2 Canonical representationGiven a member of the date date portion of the canonical representation (the entire representation for nontimezoned values, and all but the timezone representation for timezoned values) is always the date portion of the dateTime canonical representation of the interval midpoint (the dateTime representation, truncated on the right to eliminate 'T' and all following characters). For timezoned values, append the canonical representation of the

Specifically, it is a set of one-month long, non-periodic instances e.g. 1999-10 to represent the whole month of 1999-10, independent of how many days this month has.
Since the lexical representation allows an optional time zone indicator, gYearMonth values are partially ordered because it may not be possible to unequivocally determine the order of two values one of which has a time zone and the other does not. If gYearMonth values are considered as periods of time, the order relation on gYearMonth values is the order relation on their starting instants. This is discussed in Order relation on dateTime (§3.2.7.4). See also Adding durations to dateTimes (§E). Pairs of gYearMonth values with or without time zone indicators are totally ordered.
Note: Because month/year combinations in one calendar only rarely correspond to month/year combinations in other calendars, values of this type are not, in general, convertible to simple values corresponding to month/year combinations in other calendars. This type should therefore be used with caution in contexts where conversion to other calendars is desired.

lengthminLengthmaxLengthpatternenumerationwhiteSpace3.2.16 base64Binarybase64Binary represents Base64-encoded arbitrary binary data. The base64Binary is the set of finite-length sequences of binary octets. For base64Binary data the entire binary stream is encoded using the Base64 Alphabet in [RFC 2045].
The lexical forms of base64Binary values are limited to the 65 characters of the Base64 Alphabet defined in [RFC 2045], i.e., a-z, A-Z, 0-9, the plus sign (+), the forward slash (/) and the equal sign (=), together with the characters defined in [XML 1.0 (Second Edition)] as white space. No other characters are allowed.
For compatibility with older mail gateways, [RFC 2045] suggests that base64 data should have lines limited to at most 76 characters in length. This line-length limitation is not mandated in the lexical forms of base64Binary data and must not be enforced by XML Schema processors.
The lexical space of base64Binary is given by the following grammar (the notation is that used in [XML 1.0 (Second Edition)]); legal lexical forms must match the Base64Binary production.
Base64Binary ::= ((B64S B64S B64S B64S)*
((B64S B64S B64S B64) |
(B64S B64S B16S '=') |
(B64S B04S '=' #x20? '=')))?
B64S ::= B64 #x20?
B16S ::= B16 #x20?
B04S ::= B04 #x20?
B04 ::= [AQgw]
B16 ::= [AEIMQUYcgkosw048]
B64 ::= [A-Za-z0-9+/]
Note that this grammar requires the number of non-whitespace characters in the lexical form to be a multiple of four, and for equals signs to appear only at the end of the lexical form; strings which do not meet these constraints are not legal lexical forms of base64Binary because they cannot successfully be decoded by base64 decoders.
Note: The above definition of the lexical space is more restrictive than that given in [RFC 2045] as regards whitespace -- this is not an issue in practice. Any string compatible with the RFC can occur in an element or attribute validated by this type, because the collapse, which means that all leading and trailing whitespace will be stripped, and all internal whitespace collapsed to single space characters, before the above grammar is enforced.The canonical lexical form of a base64Binary data value is the base64 encoding of the value which matches the Canonical-base64Binary production in the following grammar:
Canonical-base64Binary ::= (B64 B64 B64 B64)*
((B64 B64 B16 '=') | (B64 B04 '=='))?
Note: For some values the canonical form defined above does not conform to [RFC 2045], which requires breaking with linefeeds at appropriate intervals.The length of a base64Binary value is the number of octets it contains. This may be calculated from the lexical form by removing whitespace and padding characters and performing the calculation shown in the pseudo-code below:
lex2 := killwhitespace(lexform) -- remove whitespace characters
lex3 := strip_equals(lex2) -- strip padding characters at end
length := floor (length(lex3) * 3 / 4) -- calculate length
Note on encoding: [RFC 2045] explicitly references US-ASCII encoding. However, decoding of base64Binary data in an XML entity is to be performed on the Unicode characters obtained after character encoding processing as specified by [XML 1.0 (Second Edition)]

An anyURI value can be absolute or relative, and may have an optional fragment identifier (i.e., it may be a URI Reference). This type should be used to specify the intention that the value fulfills the role of a URI as defined by [RFC 2396], as amended by [RFC 2732].
The mapping from anyURI values to URIs is as defined by the URI reference escaping procedure defined in Section 5.4 Locator Attribute of [XML Linking Language] (see also Section 8 Character Encoding in URI References of [Character Model]). This means that a wide range of internationalized resource identifiers can be specified when an anyURI is called for, and still be understood as URIs per [RFC 2396], as amended by [RFC 2732], where appropriate to identify resources.

4.3.1 lengthlength is the number of units of length, where units of length varies depending on the type that is being length
For string and datatypes length is measured in units of characters as defined in [XML 1.0 (Second Edition)]. For anyURI, length is measured in units of characters (as for string). For hexBinary and base64Binary and datatypes length is measured in octets (8 bits) of binary data. For datatypes length is measured in number of list items.
Note: For string and datatypes length will not always coincide with "string length" as perceived by some users or with the number of storage units in some digital representation. Therefore, care should be taken when specifying a value for length and in attempting to infer storage requirements from a given value for length.

D ISO 8601 Date and Time FormatsD.1 ISO 8601 ConventionsThe
[ISO 8601] "specifies the representation of dates in the proleptic Gregorian calendar and times and representations of periods of time". The proleptic Gregorian calendar includes dates prior to 1582 (the year it came into use as an ecclesiastical calendar). It should be pointed out that the datatypes described in this specification do not cover all the types of data covered by [ISO 8601], nor do they support all the lexical representations for those types of data.
[ISO 8601] lexical formats are described using "pictures" in which characters are used in place of decimal digits. The allowed decimal digits are (#x30-#x39). For the primitive datatypes dateTime, time, date, gYearMonth, gMonthDay, gDay, gMonth and gYear. these characters have the following meanings:
C -- represents a digit used in the thousands and hundreds components, the "century" component, of the time element "year". Legal values are from 0 to 9. Y -- represents a digit used in the tens and units components of the time element "year". Legal values are from 0 to 9. M -- represents a digit used in the time element "month". The two digits in a MM format can have values from 1 to 12. D -- represents a digit used in the time element "day". The two digits in a DD format can have values from 1 to 28 if the month value equals 2, 1 to 29 if the month value equals 2 and the year is a leap year, 1 to 30 if the month value equals 4, 6, 9 or 11, and 1 to 31 if the month value equals 1, 3, 5, 7, 8, 10 or 12. h -- represents a digit used in the time element "hour". The two digits in a hh format can have values from 0 to 24. If the value of the hour element is 24 then the values of the minutes element and the seconds element must be 00 and 00. m -- represents a digit used in the time element "minute". The two digits in a mm format can have values from 0 to 59. s -- represents a digit used in the time element "second". The two digits in a ss format can have values from 0 to 60. In the formats described in this specification the whole number of seconds Strictly speaking, a value of 60 or more is not sensible unless the month and day could represent March 31, June 30, September 30, or December 31 in UTC. Because the leap second is added or subtracted as the last second of the day in UTC time, the long (or short) minute could occur at other times in local time. In cases where the leap second is used with an inappropriate month and day it, and any fractional seconds, should considered as added or subtracted from the following minute.
For all the information items indicated by the above characters, leading zeros are required where indicated.
In addition to the above, certain characters are used as designators and appear as themselves in lexical formats.
T -- is used as time designator to indicate the start of the representation of the time of day in dateTime. Z -- is used as time-zone designator, immediately (without a space) following a data element expressing the time of day in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) in dateTime, time, date, gYearMonth, gMonthDay, gDay, gMonth, and gYear. In the lexical format for duration the following characters are also used as designators and appear as themselves in lexical formats:
P -- is used as the time duration designator, preceding a data element representing a given duration of time.Y -- follows the number of years in a time duration.M -- follows the number of months or minutes in a time duration.D -- follows the number of days in a time duration.H -- follows the number of hours in a time duration.S -- follows the number of seconds in a time duration.The values of the Year, Month, Day, Hour and Minutes components are not restricted but allow an arbitrary integer. Similarly, the value of the Seconds component allows an arbitrary decimal. Thus, the lexical format for duration and datatypes derived from it does not follow the alternative format of § 5.5.3.2.1 of [ISO 8601].
D.2 Truncated and Reduced Formats[ISO 8601] supports a variety of "truncated" formats in which some of the characters on the left of specific formats, for example, the century, can be omitted. Truncated formats are, in general, not permitted for the datatypes defined in this specification with three exceptions. The time datatype uses a truncated format for dateTime which represents an instant of time that recurs every day. Similarly, the gMonthDay and gDay datatypes use left-truncated formats for date. The datatype gMonth uses a right and left truncated format for date.[ISO 8601] also supports a variety of "reduced" or right-truncated formats in which some of the characters to the right of specific formats, such as the time specification, can be omitted. Right truncated formats are also, in general, not permitted for the datatypes defined in this specification with the following exceptions: right-truncated representations of dateTime are used as lexical representations for date, gMonth, gYear.
D.3 Deviations from ISO 8601 Formats D.3.1 Sign Allowed
D.3.2 No Year Zero
D.3.3 More Than 9999 Years
D.3.4 Time zone permitted
D.3.1 Sign AllowedAn optional minus sign is allowed immediately preceding, without a space, the lexical representations for duration, dateTime, date, gYearMonth, gYear.
D.3.2 No Year ZeroThe year "0000" is an illegal year value.
D.3.3 More Than 9999 YearsTo accommodate year values greater than 9999, more than four digits are allowed in the year representations of dateTime, date, gYearMonth, and gYear. This follows [ISO 8601:2000 Second Edition].
D.3.4 Time zone permittedThe lexical representations for the datatypes date, gYearMonth, gMonthDay, gDay, gMonth and gYear permit an optional trailing time zone specificiation.
E Adding durations to dateTimesGiven a dateTime S and a duration D, this appendix specifies how to compute a dateTime E where E is the end of the time period with start S and duration D i.e. E = S + D. Such computations are used, for example, to determine whether a dateTime is within a specific time period. This appendix also addresses the addition of durations to the datatypes date, gYearMonth, gYear, gDay and gMonth, which can be viewed as a set of dateTimes. In such cases, the addition is made to the first or starting dateTime in the set.
This is a logical explanation of the process. Actual implementations are free to optimize as long as they produce the same results. The calculation uses the notation S[year] to represent the year field of S, S[month] to represent the month field, and so on. It also depends on the following functions:
fQuotient(a, b) = the greatest integer less than or equal to a/b fQuotient(-1,3) = -1fQuotient(0,3)...fQuotient(2,3) = 0fQuotient(3,3) = 1fQuotient(3.123,3) = 1modulo(a, b) = a - fQuotient(a,b)*b modulo(-1,3) = 2modulo(0,3)...modulo(2,3) = 0...2modulo(3,3) = 0modulo(3.123,3) = 0.123fQuotient(a, low, high) = fQuotient(a - low, high - low) fQuotient(0, 1, 13) = -1fQuotient(1, 1, 13) ... fQuotient(12, 1, 13) = 0fQuotient(13, 1, 13) = 1fQuotient(13.123, 1, 13) = 1modulo(a, low, high) = modulo(a - low, high - low) + low modulo(0, 1, 13) = 12modulo(1, 1, 13) ... modulo(12, 1, 13) = 1...12 modulo(13, 1, 13) = 1modulo(13.123, 1, 13) = 1.123maximumDayInMonthFor(yearValue, monthValue) = M := modulo(monthValue, 1, 13)Y := yearValue + fQuotient(monthValue, 1, 13)Return a value based on M and Y:
31
M = January, March, May, July, August, October, or December
30
M = April, June, September, or November
29
M = February AND (modulo(Y, 400) = 0 OR (modulo(Y, 100) != 0) AND modulo(Y, 4) = 0)
28
Otherwise
E.1 AlgorithmEssentially, this calculation is equivalent to separating D into <year,month> and <day,hour,minute,second> fields. The <year,month> is added to S. If the day is out of range, it is pinned to be within range. Thus April 31 turns into April 30. Then the <day,hour,minute,second> is added. This latter addition can cause the year and month to change.
Leap seconds are handled by the computation by treating them as overflows. Essentially, a value of 60 seconds in S is treated as if it were a duration of 60 seconds added to S (with a zero seconds field). All calculations thereafter use 60 seconds per minute.
Thus the addition of either PT1M or PT60S to any dateTime will always produce the same result. This is a special definition of addition which is designed to match common practice, and -- most importantly -- be stable over time.
A definition that attempted to take leap-seconds into account would need to be constantly updated, and could not predict the results of future implementation's additions. The decision to introduce a leap second in UTC is the responsibility of the [International Earth Rotation Service (IERS)]. They make periodic announcements as to when leap seconds are to be added, but this is not known more than a year in advance. For more information on leap seconds, see [U.S. Naval Observatory Time Service Department].
The following is the precise specification. These steps must be followed in the same order. If a field in D is not specified, it is treated as if it were zero. If a field in S is not specified, it is treated in the calculation as if it were the minimum allowed value in that field, however, after the calculation is concluded, the corresponding field in E is removed (set to unspecified).

E.2 Commutativity and AssociativityTime durations are added by simply adding each of their fields, respectively, without overflow.
The order of addition of durations to instants is significant. For example, there are cases where:
((dateTime + duration1) + duration2) != ((dateTime + duration2) + duration1)
Example:
(2000-03-30 + P1D) + P1M = 2000-03-31 + P1M = 2000-04-30
(2000-03-30 + P1M) + P1D = 2000-04-30 + P1D = 2000-05-01
F Regular ExpressionsA set of strings L(R). When used to constrain a regular expression R asserts that only strings in L(R) are valid literals for values of that type.
Note: Unlike some popular regular expression languages (including those defined by Perl and standard Unix utilities), the regular expression language defined here implicitly anchors all regular expressions at the head and tail, as the most common use of regular expressions in A (#x41) and end with the character Z (#x5a) would be defined as follows: <simpleType name='myString'> <restriction base='string'> <pattern value='A.*Z'/> </restriction></simpleType>
In regular expression languages that are not implicitly anchored at the head and tail, it is customary to write the equivalent regular expression as: ^A.*Z$
where "^" anchors the pattern at the head and "$" anchors at the tail.
In those rare cases where an unanchored match is desired, including .* at the beginning and ending of the regular expression will achieve the desired results. For example, a datatype A (#x41) characters somewhere within the value could be defined as follows:
<simpleType name='myString'> <restriction base='string'> <pattern value='.*AAA.*'/> </restriction></simpleType>
regular expression is composed from zero or more | characters.
