Roger,
I believe that choiceDispatchKey requires a string. You cast your unsignedint
to a string, not another int.

I have this:
<xs:element name="ENVIRONMENT">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="BitCode" type="unsignedint3"/>
And then I have this:
<xs:choice dfdl:choiceDispatchKey="{ENVIRONMENT/BitCode}">
Daffodil gave an error, saying the I needed to cast ENVIRONMENT/BitCode, so I
did:
<xs:choice dfdl:choiceDispatchKey="{xs:unsignedInt(ENVIRONMENT/BitCode)}">
Now Daffodil gives this opaque error message:
In expression xs:unsignedInt(ENVIRONMENT/BitCode), result type (unsignedInt)
should be manually cast to the expected type (NonEmptyString) with the
appropriate constructor.Performing deprecated automatic conversion. (id:
deprecatedExpressionResultCoercion)
What does that error message mean? Why didn't xs:unsignedInt(...) fix the
casting problem? What's the solution?
