<title id="datatype-title">Data Types</title>
advantage over storing XML data in a <type>text</type> field is that it
checks the input values for well-formedness, and there are support
functions to perform type-safe operations on it; see <xref
- linkend="functions-xml">. Currently, there is no support for
- validation against a specific <acronym>XML</> schema.
+ linkend="functions-xml">.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ In particular, the <type>xml</type> type can store well-formed
+ <quote>documents</quote>, as defined by the XML standard, as well
+ as <quote>content</quote> fragments, which are defined by the
+ production <literal>XMLDecl? content</literal> in the XML
+ standard. Roughly, this means that content fragments can have
+ more than one top-level element or character node. The expression
+ <literal><replaceable>xmlvalue</replaceable> IS DOCUMENT</literal>
+ can be used to evaluate whether a particular <type>xml</type>
+ value is a full document or only a content fragment.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ To produce a value of type <type>xml</type> from character data,
+ use the function <function>xmlparse</function>:
+<synopsis>
+XMLPARSE ( { DOCUMENT | CONTENT } <replaceable>value</replaceable>)
+</synopsis>
+ Examples:
+<programlisting><![CDATA[
+XMLPARSE (DOCUMENT '<?xml version="1.0"?><book><title>Manual</title><chapter>...</chapter><book>')
+XMLPARSE (CONTENT 'abc<foo>bar</bar><bar>foo</foo>')
+]]></programlisting>
+ While this is the only way to convert character strings into XML
+ values according to the SQL standard, the PostgreSQL-specific
+ syntaxes
+<programlisting><![CDATA[
+xml '<foo>bar</foo>'
+'<foo>bar</foo>'::xml
+]]></programlisting>
+ can also be used.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ The <type>xml</type> type does not validate its input values
+ against a possibly included document type declaration (DTD).
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ The inverse operation, producing character string type values from
+ <type>xml</type>, uses the function
+ <function>xmlserialize</function>:
+<synopsis>
+XMLSERIALIZE ( { DOCUMENT | CONTENT } <replaceable>value</replaceable> AS <replaceable>type</replaceable> )
+</synopsis>
+ <replaceable>type</replaceable> can be one of
+ <type>character</type>, <type>character varying</type>, or
+ <type>text</type> (or an alias name for those). Again, according
+ to the SQL standard, this is the only way to convert between type
+ <type>xml</type> and character types, but PostgreSQL also allows
+ you to simply cast the value.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Care must be taken when dealing with multiple character encodings
+ on the client, server, and in the XML data passed through them.
+ When using the text mode to pass queries to the server and query
+ results to the client (which is the normal mode), PostgreSQL
+ converts all character data passed between the client and the
+ server and vice versa to the character encoding of the respective
+ end; see <xref linkend="multibyte">. This includes string
+ representations of XML values, such as in the above examples.
+ This would ordinarily mean that encoding declarations contained in
+ XML data might become invalid as the character data is converted
+ to other encodings while travelling between client and server,
+ while the embedded encoding declaration is not changed. To cope
+ with this behavior, an encoding declaration contained in a
+ character string presented for input to the <type>xml</type> type
+ is <emphasis>ignored</emphasis>, and the content is always assumed
+ to be in the current server encoding. Consequently, for correct
+ processing, such character strings of XML data must be sent off
+ from the client in the current client encoding. It is the
+ responsibility of the client to either convert the document to the
+ current client encoding before sending it off to the server or to
+ adjust the client encoding appropriately. On output, values of
+ type <type>xml</type> will not have an encoding declaration, and
+ clients must assume that the data is in the current client
+ encoding.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ When using the binary mode to pass query parameters to the server
+ and query results back the the client, no character set conversion
+ is performed, so the situation is different. In this case, an
+ encoding declaration in the XML data will be observed, and if it
+ is absent, the data will be assumed to be in UTF-8 (as required by
+ the XML standard; note that PostgreSQL does not support UTF-16 at
+ all). On output, data will have an encoding declaration
+ specifying the client encoding, unless the client encoding is
+ UTF-8, in which case it will be omitted.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Needless to say, processing XML data with PostgreSQL will be less
+ error-prone and more efficient if data encoding, client encoding,
+ and server encoding are the same. Since XML data is internally
+ processed in UTF-8, computations will be most efficient if the
+ server encoding is also UTF-8.
