javax.xml.validation.Validator#validate implementation does not support a 
DOMSource argument
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

         Key: XERCESJ-1163
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESJ-1163
     Project: Xerces2-J
        Type: Bug

  Components: JAXP (javax.xml.validation)  
    Versions: 2.8.0    
    Reporter: Steven Grossman


Validator#validate implementation does not support a DOMSource argument.  The 
following SAXParseException is always thrown: 

Exception in thread "main" org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: cvc-elt.1: Cannot 
find the declaration of element 'xxx'.  

The problem is not seen in the 1.5 jdk.

I've supplied a test class that succesfully validates an xml instance document 
using a StreamSource and subsequently fails to perform the validation against a 
DOMSource representation of the same xml.

import java.io.StringReader;
import java.io.IOException;
import javax.xml.XMLConstants;
import javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilder;
import javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory;
import javax.xml.parsers.ParserConfigurationException;
import javax.xml.transform.stream.StreamSource;
import javax.xml.transform.dom.DOMSource;
import javax.xml.validation.Schema;
import javax.xml.validation.SchemaFactory;
import javax.xml.validation.Validator;
import org.xml.sax.SAXException;
import org.xml.sax.InputSource;
import org.w3c.dom.Document;

public final class ValidatorBug {

    private static final String SCHEMA =
        "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?>\n" +
        "<xs:schema xmlns:xs=\"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema\"; 
elementFormDefault=\"qualified\" attributeFormDefault=\"unqualified\">\n" +
        "    <xs:element name=\"root\"/>\n" +
        "</xs:schema>";

    private static final String XML = "<?xml version=\"1.0\" 
encoding=\"UTF-8\"?><root/>";

    public static void main(String[] args) throws SAXException, IOException, 
ParserConfigurationException {

        SchemaFactory schemaFactory =
                SchemaFactory.newInstance(XMLConstants.W3C_XML_SCHEMA_NS_URI);
        Schema schema = schemaFactory.newSchema(new StreamSource(new 
StringReader(SCHEMA)));
        Validator validator = schema.newValidator();

        System.out.println("\nvalidating stream source");
        validator.validate(new StreamSource(new StringReader(XML)));  // <--- 
WORKS
        System.out.println("valid");

        DocumentBuilderFactory documentBuilderFactory = 
DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
        DocumentBuilder documentBuilder = 
documentBuilderFactory.newDocumentBuilder();
        Document document = documentBuilder.parse(new InputSource(new 
StringReader(XML)));

        System.out.println("\nvalidating DOM source");
        validator.validate(new DOMSource(document));   // <--- PROBLEM
        System.out.println("valid");
    }
}

The exception:

Exception in thread "main" org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: cvc-elt.1: Cannot 
find the declaration of element 'root'.

wrong component)
