<!-- WARNING: this constraint should be examining all elements and attributes whose value or content is defined with teidata.point. However, we have no easy access to that list (which would need to be generated dynamically), so instead it is looking at all @points attributes, which (as of this writing) is the only member of that list. I.e., if you add an attribute or element that uses (or change an existing one to use) teidata.pointer, you likely need to change the @context below to match. -->

Note

A point is defined by two numeric values, which should be expressed as decimal numbers.

Currently, this datatype permits either of the two numeric values to end in a decimal point. This practice is deprecated, and as of 2019-02-25 this datatype will no longer permit a number to end in a decimal point. E.g., both 0.0,84.2 and 0,84 are allowed, but 0.,84. will not be.
