19.644 table:formula datatype vs text:formula

    Details

      Hide

      19.644 table:formula attribute should also have datatype "formula"

    • Resolution:

      Remove "formula" datatype from the schema.

      Adapt 19.779.1 General to

      The text:condition attribute specifies condition. Conditions do not have a predefined syntax, but the attribute value should begin with a namespace prefix, followed by a ":" (COLON, U+003A) separator, followed by the text of a formula. The namespace bound to the prefix determines the syntax and semantics of the formula.

      Remove section 18.3.15 formula

      Description

      The 19.779 text:condition and 19.807 text:formula attributes are of datatype "formula"

      "The attribute value should begin with a namespace prefix followed by ":" (COLON, U+003A) followed by the text of the formula. The namespace bound to the prefix determines the syntax and semantics of the formula. "

      The 19.644 table:formula attribute is of datatype "string", while the description is the same

      "The attribute value should begin with a namespace prefix followed by ":" (COLON, U+003A), followed by the text of the formula. The namespace bound to the prefix determines the syntax and semantics of the formula.

          The table:formula attribute specifies a spreadsheet formula, while text:formula and text:condition specify formulas in a text document. While the attributes have in common that they may or should start with a namespace prefix, the formulas themselves are different. I therefore suggest that we don't use the same datatype for the attribute values, because that could be misunderstood. It may lead to the impression that a formula in a text field must be a spreadsheet formula. That is clearly not the case.

          However, it appears not be be reasonable to have a "formula" datatype for the text attributes, but none for table:formula. Because "formula" is defined as string in the schema, I suggest that we remove the formula datatype, and use "string" directly instead.
