Description

As part of JENA-351 the test file and tests for user-defined XSD types disappeared.

While these were originally motivated by the DAML+OIL approach to data types, it was also possible to create user-defined XSD datatypes and register them via XSDDatatype.loadUserDefined.

Should either reinstate the test file and tests (presumably in TestTypedLiterals) or cease support for such user defined types by marking XSDDatatype.loadUserDefined as deprecated and updating documentation at
http://jena.apache.org/documentation/notes/typed-literals.html
