Description

This is a constructor function that takes an item value as argument and returns a value of type xs:time. If the argument is a literal, then the literal must be a valid lexical form of its type.

As specified in the respective section of the W3C recommendation XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes, a value of type xs:time represents a specific instant of time by a combination of date and time of day values. The lexical form is hh:mm:ss where "hh" represents the hour, "mm" the minute, "ss" the second. Fractions of a second are appended with a leading ".". A timezone can be appended. You may not truncate digits on the left side.
