Subject: [xacml] [Text Change] Clarify A.3 Structured types does not cast orconvert values
CHANGE REQUEST:
In Section A.3 Structured types, item 1., paragraph starting with
"1, change second sentence from:
"This requires the structured data, including its tags and
attributes, to be identified and treated as an instance of the
data-type xsi:string."
To:
"This requires the structured data <AttributeValue> to be given the
DataType="xsi:string". For example, a structured data type
that is actually a ds:KeyInfo/KeyName would appear in the
Context as:
<AttributeValue
DataType="xsi:string"><ds:KeyName>jhibbert-key</ds:KeyName></AttributeValue>
RATIONALE: Way#1 could be read as implying that the structured
data type is automatically cast or converted to the type required
by the function that references it. We should be very clear that
this does NOT occur.
