Feature/52 support of three dots

[nkutsche]

Hi,

as I needed the three dot ignore logic (issue #52) for some of my projects, I made a small implementation for it using just a cleaning XSLT inbetween.

It works the same as in XSpec for most cases. The only known cases are three dots in mixed content like <foo>...<bar/></foo>. This is not supported by my implementation, and I don't see an easy way to do it with my approach. But actually, I have never used the mixed-content dots in XSpec, so I am not sure how important it is for others.

So, if you don't have any other plans with this issue, I would be happy if you could include this in the next release!

Best regards,
Nico

Nice, thank you!

Two suggestions:

• Perhaps the documentation needs an update?
• Is the mixed content case something we want to support ideally or not? If yes, I suggest a test case that shows the shortcoming.

Hi, sorry hadn't the time to follow up this.

Perhaps the documentation needs an update?

Am I right, that this has to be done in the xprocspec.rng - round about here? And how do I have to generate the HTML documentation? Or is the documentation not generated?

Is the mixed content case something we want to support ideally or not? If yes, I suggest a test case that shows the shortcoming.

As I wrote, I never used that and I don't see any use case for it. After reviewing it again, I'm not even sure if there is an intendet logic behind it or if I just observed some behavior of the XSpec implementation in the past which was just a consequence of thier way to implement the three dots.

Indeed, the documentation is generated from the rng file. @josteinaj How does it work exactly?

The process is explained in https://github.com/daisy/xprocspec/blob/master/www/documentation/README.md. We can update the www folder if needed. You don't need to worry about that.

Looks good! Tests are successful. Thanks for the PR @nkutsche!
