Comment 2) above is not correct. The paragraph is highlighting the difference between dynamic and static length specification. Here's what it says today:

"If a boolean element has specified length expression or a prefix length, then is is a processing error if the length is not between 1 bit and 32 bits (4 bytes). It is a schema definition error if the value is a string literal, and is not in the same range. It is a schema definition error if the value (when provided) of the binaryBooleanTrueRep cannot fit as an unsigned binary integer in the specified length."

The first two sentences are re-stating the rules that are now spelled out in section 12.3.7.2.3 'Length of Binary Boolean Elements'. I think the paragraph should therefore be:

"The length of the data value of the element must be between 1 bit and 32 bits (4 bytes) as described in section 12.3.7.2. It is a schema definition error if the value (when provided) of dfdl:binaryBooleanTrueRep cannot fit as an unsigned binary integer in the specified length."

(Same for binaryBooleanFalseRep)

For unparsing - if binaryBooleanTrueRep is "", then use the one's complement of the binaryBooleanFalseRep.

Improve wording - remove duplication per reply(1) above, and reference section 12.3.7.2.

New erratum 4.23 in experience document 1.
