> ------------------------------------
>
> Key: JENA-1288
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JENA-1288
> Project: Apache Jena
> Issue Type: Task
> Affects Versions: Jena 3.2.0
> Reporter: Andy Seaborne
> Assignee: Andy Seaborne
> Priority: Minor
>
> There are facilities in the standard JDK that can be used instead of directly
> calling Xerces, specifically {{DatatypeConverter}}. With these changes, only
> one class relies on Xerces directly, {{XSDDatatype}}.
> We have to be careful though - it is not perfect. I found that {{parseByte}}
> calls {{parseInt}} and casts the result to a java {{byte}} so it passes "300"
> and "3000" which are not valid byte lexical forms.
