Construct a token
value from an item value.
xs:token(item $value) => token
This is a constructor function that takes an item value as argument and
returns a value of type xs:token
. 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:token
represents an XML token value. It is derived from the type
xs:normalizedString
and the lexical form of xs:token
is the set of all white space normalized strings that do not contain the
carriage return, line feed and tab characters.
