parse-xml-fragment triggers schema error

[Alexander Kreutz]

When running the attached example a schema validation error inside the xml module is thrown:

/home/tryzorba/repo/zorba-2.2.0/build/URI_PATH/com/zorba-xquery/www/modules/xml.xq>:346,5: dynamic error [err:XQDY0027]: "Schema validation failed: no declaration found for element 'parse-xml-options:strip-boundary-space'": unexpected validity property

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------Example:
xquery version "3.0";

import module namespace parse-xml = "http://www.zorba-xquery.com/modules/xml";

parse-xml:parse-xml-fragment("<xml>test</xml>","EDSlwf")

[Chris Hillery (ceejatec)]

Pretty straightforward bug here: the deprecated backwards-compatible version of parse-xml-fragment() converts the arguments string ("EDSlwf" in the above example) into an <parse-xml-options:options> element. The "w" flag introduces a <parse-xml-options:strip-boundary-space/> element into that <options>. But there's no strip-boundary-space element defined by the schema. There doesn't seem to be anything at all related to "boundary" or "whitespace" in the options schema, in fact, which leads me to believe that perhaps that functionality simply never got implemented.

[Nicolae Brinza (nbrinza)]

The strip-boundary-space option was hidden in the latest parse-fragment code as it did not work reliably in LibXml2 (the option was passed to the library). The current parse() function does not have this option. It is pending a reimplementation in our code.

I guess a solution would be to update the documentation of the backwards-compatible parse-xml-fragment() to mention the option should not be used.
