I have found here that in 2002, there was the same issue with Xerces 2.0.0 beta 4
http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=5891 I did the test with default attributes, it's working. So it seems I am facing exactly the same issue 4 years later :o( -----Original Message----- From: Decoker, Lydie (Lydie) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, September 19, 2006 11:56 To: [email protected] Subject: Default attributes and elements How to add in the DOM tree the default attributes and elements? What I did is the following: // Set the DocumentBuilderFactory system property System.setProperty("javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory","org.apach e.xerces.jaxp.DocumentBuilderFactoryImpl"); System.setProperty("javax.xml.validation.SchemaFactory:http://www.w3.org /2001/XMLSchema", "org.apache.xerces.jaxp.validation.XMLSchemaFactory"); // Create the dom factory DocumentBuilderFactory domFactory=DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance(); System.out.println("Document builder factory class: " + domFactory.getClass().getName()); // Set the namespace property domFactory.setNamespaceAware(true); // Set the validation property domFactory.setValidating(true); // Set the schema language property to be used for validation domFactory.setAttribute("http://java.sun.com/xml/jaxp/properties/schemaL anguage", XMLConstants.W3C_XML_SCHEMA_NS_URI);=09 // Specify the XML schema document to be used for validation domFactory.setAttribute(JMSValidator.JAXP_SCHEMA_SOURCE, new File(schemaLocation)); domFactory.setAttribute("http://xml.org/sax/features/validation";, true); domFactory.setAttribute("http://apache.org/xml/features/validation/schem a", true); domFactory.setAttribute("http://apache.org/xml/features/validation/schem a/element-default",true); But when printing out the "augmented" document, the default values were not added. Any help would be appreciated. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
