Mukul Gandhi commented on XERCESJ-1726:
---------------------------------------

The latest XSD document test5.xsd, that you've provided, emits couple of 
validation errors with the corresponding XML instance document that you've 
provided.

I'd suggest that, you may change the two failing <assert> (below the comment 
'<!-- * Start of Highlighted Lines for Untreated Kind of Error' within the XSD 
document, that you've posted) to following form,

<xs:assert test="matches($value ...
<xs:assert test="if (matches($value ...

These modifications seem to be a good XSD writing style, and works for me.

After solving the above mentioned aspects, I'm then getting following <assert> 
to fail,
<xs:assert test="if (./text()[last()>1]) then false() else true()"/>
I've a feeling that, you may be writing this <assert> wrongly for your 
requirement (it doesn't make lot of sense to me). What do you want exactly, to 
do with this <assert>?

> I have recently been trying to validate the XML file *test1.xml* with a 
> schema *test.xsd* containing *assert*/*assertion* constructs, using the 
> sample program *jaxp.SourceValidator*.
> Unexpectedly, the result was several reported errors in what appeared to be 
> syntactically correct and valid XML lines (*test1.xml*: 9 errors).
> After significant experimentation, it appeared that these errors were 
> occurring at line numbers which the validation found troublesome. Inserting 
> an extra line at one of the troublesome line numbers made the previously 
> erroneous line (now *not* appearing at a troublesome line number) pass 
> validation. On the other hand, the newly inserted line (occupying the 
> troublesome line number) would fail validation.
> I tentatively interpreted this as meaning that *the validation errors were 
> not real* and began to try to develop a test-case, as similar as possible to 
> *test1.xml*, but which passed validation. The result was *test2.xml*, which 
> was generated from *test1.xml* by inserting XML comment lines at each of the 
> troublesome line numbers, thereby displacing the previously erroneous lines 
> to non-trooublesome line numbers. Since XML comment lines do not require 
> validation, this file passed validation for me (*test2.xml*: 0 errors).
> I then contacted Mukul Gandhi and he re-ran my validations *but came to a 
> different result*. He saw errors in both XML files (*test1.xml*: 9 errors; 
> *test2.xml*: 18 errors). Despite our joint efforts to achieve convergence 
> between our respective validation runs, we have not so far succeeded.
> Mukul did point out a couple of things:
> 1) The way that I was using the "matches" function in the *assert* 
> constructs. His experience suggested that this was unreliable. However, I was 
> not certain whether this would have led to the type of behaviour that I was 
> seeing (apparent troublesome line numbers).
> 2) He found that certain characters (probably the two accented French 
> characters) in my XML files were not supported in the default XML encoding 
> scheme, UTF-8. However, for me, no errors were reported for those by the 
> validation program *jaxp.SourceValidator*.
> I would be very gratefull foe some help in getting to the bottom of this 
> (both the original behaviour and the discrepancies with Mukul's validation 
> runs).
