Hello,

what should

"1" cast as xs:boolean

evaluate to: true or false?

I checked

<http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-2/#boolean>

which I think should be my reference for determining the answer, but I
cannot find the place where it is defined how literals 1 and 0 are
mapped to the canonical representation of xs:boolean, true and false.

For XSD boolean there are two values in the comparison space and four values in the lexical space.


From the lexical space, "1" and "true" represent the comparison space value true().

From the lexical space, "0" and "false" represent the comparison space value false().

Any pointers where I need to look for that info?

http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-xmlschema-2-20041028/#boolean 3.2.2.1 lexical representation

I hope this helps.
