hxt-relaxng does not support 'type="float"'

[svenpanne]

Translating the compact RELAX NG schema registry.rnc from the OpenGL registry (https://cvs.khronos.org/svn/repos/ogl/trunk/doc/registry/public/api/) via trang to the non-compact form results in

<grammar xmlns="http://relaxng.org/ns/structure/1.0"
 datatypeLibrary="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-datatypes">
...
<attribute name="number">
   <data type="float"/>
</attribute>
...

which is a translation of the

attribute number { xsd:float }

fragment from the compact schema. hxt-relaxng doesn't recognize type="float", and browsing through the sources, this type seems to be supported for XML schema only. This doesn't look right, http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-datatypes mentions float, so I think it should be available via RELAX NG, too.

I can work around this problem by manually changing float to decimal, which is OK for the use case at hand, but fixing this in hxt-relaxng would be nice.

please use the workaround at the moment. I will see, whether I can unify the datatype library stuff from relaxng and xmlschema into a common package, to eliminate this currently duplicated code.

Lazy evaluation is sometimes a good thing, but lazy development is a work-creation program, :-( .

I've also encountered this problem when loading the Relax NG schemas for ODF. The types that are missing are date, dateTime, double, and time. The current schemas can be found here: http://docs.oasis-open.org/office/v1.1/errata01/os/ http://docs.oasis-open.org/office/v1.2/os/
