Honor xml:base for XML Schema Processing
----------------------------------------
Key: XERCESJ-1366
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESJ-1366
Project: Xerces2-J
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: XML Schema 1.0 Structures
Environment: all
Reporter: Philipp Wagner
Currently xml:base is used when doing XInclude processing but not when
processing XML Schema files (for @schemaLocation or xsd:include/xsd:import).
The XML Schema specs don't mention xml:base (it wasn't ready at that time), so
using xml:base for schemas does not seem to be strictly necessary for a
processor.
Still, honoring xml:base for XInclude but not for Schemas creates the problem
that the same relative path resolves to two different paths for XInclude and
XML Schema (which might be used within the same document). This is at least
confusing for the reader of a XML file.
My proposal would be to have a config option to honor xml:base for schema
processing but leave the default behavior as is in order to maintain backward
compatibility.
