Description

I get a runtime SDE when I have a situation like this:

<element name="someElement" type="xs:int"/>
<sequence>
  <annotation>
    <appinfo source="http://www.ogf.org/dfdl/">
      <dfdl:setVariable ref="f:someVar">{ dfdl:valueLength(someElement, "bytes") }</dfdl:setVariable>
    </appinfo>
  </annotation>
</sequence>

The runtime SDE (when parsing) is that message has no value length.
