LocalMktDate

Hi,

In the documentation, I read
"String representing a Date of Local Market (vs. UTC) in YYYYMMDD format."

However, when a look at the XSD spec (fixml-datatypes-5-0.xsd), I see:
        
                
        

Since XSD date is stored as YYYY-MM-DD, the specification does not match the requirement in the documentation. This causes problems for automatic code generation tools (like xsd.exe) which represents LocalMktDate as DateTime.

Regards,
Oyvind
