Hi,
I tried to find the examples of ambiguity in the grammar for XML spec,
couldn't find too many.
One of the example is :
PubidLiteral ::= '"' PubidChar* '"' | "'" (PubidChar - "'")* "'"
I'm sure the expected precedence rules here are :
PubidLiteral ::= ('"' PubidChar* '"') | ("'" (PubidChar - "'")* "'")
And so if it is consistent, it looks like that AB | C should be parsed as
(AB) | C.
Thanks & Regards,
