Fix #44 SI-9060 XML 5th edition name characters#93
Conversation
|
xml parsing used to be shared with compiler, or cut & pasted from it. The compiler has to know when to enter "xml mode". (To answer your question why colon was disallowed.) I don't see why you'd want to make something minimally correct with a minimal change. |
|
Thanks for the feedback, @som-snytt. I have added a new issue, #94, for looking further at names starting with a colon. I added some examples, but please add more so I can understand how the colon should ideally work with XML names. Thanks again, |

@som-snytt I don't understand what you mean...? |
|
@SethTisue I don't understand why my other PR was cannibalized instead of merged. I think my comment meant, Why take correctness piecemeal instead of whole hog? |
|
@som-snytt It's been a while, but I recall that the minimal changes pass your unit test you provided. I was attempting to improve the likelihood that a fix would get merged, by making a more minimal change based on your work. Evidently, that didn't speed anything up. |

Refactored PR from #44 by @som-snytt to only make minimal changes to tokenization code, namely the acceptance of the "MIDDLE DOT" character, #xB7, from the original ticket.
To follow the standard, a colon should be allowed to start a name. It seems that a colon could always start an XML name -- in addition to a letter or an underscore. Not sure why it was avoided, but it's probably pretty rare, anyway.
