I don’t import a schema, and, for that matter, I don’t transform a document. I
create temporary elements inside the stylesheet and I want some of their
attributes to be typed as integers. I’m not trying to validate anything except
the typing on these ephemeral elements.

Dear XSL-list,
I'm beginning to explore schema-aware processing, and for a real
project I need to create some temporary elements with attributes that
I would like to treat as integers. In the non-schema-aware version I
explicitly pass the attributes through the number() function when I
need integer behavior, and that does what I want, but I thought that
if I typed the values as xs:integer when creating them they would be
recognized as instances of that type when used, and would have integer
behavior, so that I could avoid using the number() function explicitly.
I created a small test sample below that replicates the problem I see
in my real code, and I would be grateful if someone could please
advise about what I've misunderstood. What I think I'm doing is
creating a a variable that contains <cell> elements with @row
attributes that are typed as xs:integer, and that therefore should
behave as integers when I use them. But when I test in the
<xsl:for-each> at the end whether they are instances of integers, the
system reports that they are not. I'm running the tests at the command
line with Saxon EE and the -sa and -it switches. Thank you for any
guidance you might be able to provide.
Best,
David

Where do you import a schema?
