I personally see this as the right solution... :) I tried to fix thisxalan team,
bug in Xalan several month ago but failed :( (Ok, I only had three hours
time to understand whats going on inside Xalan).
So, best thing in my eyes is to build up some pressure on the
so that they will fix this annoying bug.
I assume it is this bug you're referring to? http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=5779
I think that one is a bit in the grey zone: the DOM spec puts the responsibility for creating correct namespace declaration attributes to the creator of the document.
I know, but the point is that the creator of a dom-tree is responsible for adding namespace declaration attributes themselves. Though I agree that this is something that is impractical and that the serializer should be able to add correct namespace declarations.
I've added a comment to bug
http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1831
in that regard.
Guys,
I added a fix in AbstractTextSerializer ages ago in this area : it adds in front of the IdentityTransform (it was before the current workaround) a "NamespaceAsAttributes" XMLPipe that. adds namespace declarations as attributes on the fly, without requiring building the full DOM tree.
Note also that this XMLPipe is added only if needed (there are some init-time checks) since some other XSLT processors handle this correctly (namely Saxon).
Shouldn't it be an answer to this problem ?
