Hello,
I ran the following query using BaseX 9.3.3 command-line client: 'hello' instance of xs:anyAtomicType
the result of the query is
true.
But if I run this query:
'hello' instance of xs:anySimpleType
an error "[XPST0051] Unknown type: xs:anySimpleType" is returned
Similarly, for the query:
'hello' instance of xs:anyType
an error "[XPST0051] Unknown type: xs:anyType" is returned
Should xs:anySimpleType and xs:anyType be recognized?
Thank you,
YasirCG

Hi Yasir,
The error XPST0051 is correct: If an item type is specified along with “instance of”, its expanded QName must be defined as a generalized atomic type (i.e., either an atomic type or a pure union type) [1].
Hope this helps,
Christian

Written for BaseX 9.3. BaseX may have changed since: please check the current documentation.
