[xml] Possible bug with schema validation in combination with xsi:nil



Hi!

I ran into issues with libxml2 xml validation with schemas as soon as i started using the xsi:nil attribute. Attached you find a reduced version of the schema I am using (zenotrack-pilot.xsd + all the dependencies it needs) and two test cases:

GetNextMessageResponse.xml which does not validate with with xmllint (xmllint --schema zenotrack-pilot.xsd GetNextMessageResponse.xml) GetMessagesResponse, which is extremely similar to the first testcase, but does validate with xmllint (xmllint --schema zenotrack-pilot.xsd GetMessagesResponse.xml)

I did try libxml2 2.7.7, 2.7.8 and 2.9.0. I did a debug build of libxml2 2.9.0 on Win64 and stepped with the debugger through the code, but it is simply to complex for me to understand what is actually going on. All I saw was that the nil attribute was recognized as such, but later one validation failed for reasons I do not understand.

Probably I am not seeing the obvious, but still I would like to ask for help if there is actually something wrong with libxml2 in this case.

I am thankful for any answer/input.
Cheers,
TOM
