XALAN-C - XObject Types

Samuel,

I have been doing more code review on the internals of XERCES-C
and XALAN-C regarding Numbers and DateTime.

The XPath XObjects should use XalanDOMString to render dateTime types
and the duration types.  You can use underlying 64-bit integer
arithmetic on a millisecond time continuum, but all values of XObject
should be rendered as type XalanDOMString.


XALAN-C XObjects

   The current set of supported data types for XObjects are:

      eTypeNull
      eTypeUnknown
      eTypeBoolean
      eTypeNumber
      eTypeString
      eTypeNodeSet
      eTypeResultTreeFrag
      eTypeUserDefined
      -- Internal implementation-specific --
      eTypeStringReference
      eTypeStringAdapter
      eTypeStringCached
      eTypeXTokenNumberAdapter
      eTypeXTokenStringAdapter
      eTypeNodeSetNodeProxy
      eUnknown


XALAN-C XPath is version 1.0 and does not support recognition of the
XPath-2.0 (XDM) datamodel.

Sincerely,
