Regular expressions with OR not validated correctly
---------------------------------------------------

         Key: XERCESC-1549
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESC-1549
     Project: Xerces-C++
        Type: Bug
  Components: Validating Parser (Schema) (Xerces 1.5 or up only)  
    Versions: 2.7.0    
 Environment: win32, AIX
    Reporter: Michel van Uunen
    Priority: Critical
 Attachments: sample.xml, sample.xsd

Since Xerces version 2.7.0 '|' combined regular expressions in XSD schema 
patterns are not handled correctly:

E.g.
Consider the following (simplified) schema pattern:

<xs:element name="Elem">
<xs:simpleType>
<xs:restriction base="xs:string">
<xs:pattern value="[A-Z]{2}|[A-Z]{3}"/>
</xs:restriction>
</xs:simpleType>
</xs:element>

<Elem>AA</Elem>  --> valid
<Elem>AAA</Elem> --> Datatype error: Type:InvalidDatatypeValueException, 
Message:Value 'AAA' does not match regular expression facet '[A-Z]{2}|[A-Z]{3}'.

Only the first pattern seems to be validated. In Xerces 2.6.0 both expressions 
were handled correctly.

We are in the process of migrating to Xerces 2.7.0/Xalan 1.10.0, but this 
regression problem seems to be blocking for migration.
