Hi Andy,
the JDO spec says (section 18.21) JDO vendors must support XSD and might
support DTD. I think, since DTD support is optional, the TCK cannot use
metadata files referring the DTD.
Regards Michael
Can someone from JPOX shed some light on this issue?
JPOX (currently) validates against a DTD ... since that was always the JDO 1
way.
The XML parser being used (usually Crimson) still checks when no DTD is
specified
and since there is no DTD in those xsd files, logs the errors. This doesn't mean
that JPOX will not run. When we get time we'll have a look at sorting out
validation against xsd's.
I don't see how DTD validation is optional since it was the JDO 1 way and for
backwards compatibility should be required.
