I still have a question concerning a similar issue: If restricting the
value of the whitespace facet of the base type, what whitespace
value is actually used for validation, the inherited or the restricted?

Example:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<schema xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
   <element name="foo">
     <simpleType>
       <restriction base="string">
         <enumeration value="hel   lo"/>
         <whiteSpace value="collapse"/>
       </restriction>
     </simpleType>
   </element>
</schema>

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<foo xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
 >  hel lo  </foo>

Xerces uses the inherited whitespace value for normalization:

"(Error) cvc-enumeration-valid: Value 'hel lo' is not facet-valid with 
respect to enumeration '[hel   lo]'. It must be a value from the 
enumeration."

XSV (I'm not sure if it just fails due to the bug):

"element content failed type check: hel lo not in enumeration [hel lo]"

Note that XSV is reporting the "collapsed" value of the enumeration
facet.

Regards,

Kasimier
