2.1.2.42 [ISO/IEC9075-14:2011] X060, XMLParse: Character string input and CONTENT option

V0077:

The specification states the following:

 Subclause 6.16, "<XML parse>": 
  
 Without Feature X060, "XMLParse: Character string input and CONTENT option", in conforming SQL language, the declared type of the <string value expression> immediately contained in <XML parse> shall not be a character string type and <XML parse> shall not immediately contain a <document or content> that is CONTENT.

Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 and Microsoft SQL Server 2012 vary as follows:

Transact-SQL does not support this feature. See the CAST and CONVERT functions [MSDN-Transact-SQLRef] for equivalent functionality. These functions support parsing from string (NVARCHAR) to XML(CONTENT).

This variation pertains to XML parser functionality in SQL Server.
