Errors
CodeDescription
err:XC0136It is a dynamic error (err:XC0136) if an implementation does not support p:file-touch for a specified scheme.
err:XC0137It is a dynamic error (err:XC0137) if p:file-touch cannot be completed due to access restrictions in the environment in which the pipeline is run.
err:XD0011It is a dynamic error (err:XD0011) if the resource referenced by the href option does not exist and cannot be created or exists and cannot be accessed.
err:XD0064It is a dynamic error (err:XD0064) if the base URI is not both absolute and valid according to RFC 3986.
Implementation defined features
  • Conformant processors must support URIs whose scheme is file for the href option of p:file-touch. It is implementation-defined what other schemes are supported by p:file-touch, and what the interpretation of ‘directory’, ‘file’ and ‘contents’ is for those schemes.

Description

The p:file-touch step is defined in the XProc 3.1: Standard Step Library. It is also described on XProcRef.org.
