IML./NML.Whitespace Character
IML./NML.wsc
Verify if a String contains only valid XML Whitespace characters
Intention
This command is used to verify if a single character, or any character in P1 is a valid XML-Whitespace Character.
As this is a String Command, no parsing is required before using this command.
Here is an usage example:
$$XMF= $crlf$SL-Name
NML.wsc|$$XMF
PRT.This is not a valid XML-Whitespace.$crlf$It contains an invalid character at position $$000.
EIF.
Syntax
IML.Whitespace Character|P2[|P3]
Parameter Explanation
P2 - Variable with XML-Data. XML-Data can contain $cr, $lf or not.
P3 - (optional) Variable can contain a Position, then only the character at this position is been tested. If omitted or zero, all characters are tested. Only in this case, and if a character is found that does not apply to the Standards for a "XML name start letter" then the position of the character is been placed on TOS (Top of Stack).

'
$$XMF=$sp$$crlf$
IML.wsc|$$XMF
PRT.Yes it contains only valid XML-Whitespace characters.

' Is a valid Name-Char at Position 4
$$XMF=SML _Name
IML.wsc|$$XMF|4
PRT. It contains an valid character at position 4.
EIF.
PRT.----------------------
$$XMF= _Name
$$POS=4
NML.wsc|$$XMF|$$POS
PRT. Character at Pos. $$POS is a NOT valid XML-Whitespace Character.
EIF.
PRT.----------------------
' Not a valid Name-Char at Position 3
$$POS=3
$$XMF= $crlf$SL-Name
