Subject: New Functionx for XACML 3.0
I'd like to propose a number of new functions for the 3.0 release of XACML. The new functions in the current 3.0 draft are predominantly conversion functions, such as "boolean-to-string". I think we should take the opportunity to add some string manipulation functions that have simple mappings to underlying functions in common programming languages. For example, "string-starts-with" and "string-ends-with". At the moment this functionality can be only implemented using regular expressions, which is computationally expensive, or non-standard functions such as those available in BEA's WebLogic Server (http://edocs.bea.com/wls/docs92/secwlres/xacmlref.html#wp1097027). As a starting point, I'd like to propose the following functions: - <type>-starts-with - <type>-ends-with - <type>-contains - <type>-substring - string-equal-ignore-case Where <type> is either string or anyURI.
