Hi Folks,


I have a fixed-length field (3) that has hyphen as the nilValue. The hyphen can 
be positioned anywhere in the field, e.g.,



.../-  /...

.../ - /...

.../  -/...



What is the right way to specify the nilValue? I specified it this way:


dfdl:nilValue="%WSP*;-"



and it seems to work just fine.



But I was told, "that only allows whitespace before the hyphen; it should be 
specified this way:


dfdl:nilValue="%WSP*;-%WSP*;"



What is the correct way?



/Roger
