Category: XML Group: Python 2.5 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Paul Pacheco (paulpach) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: normalize namespace from minidom Initial Comment: This is a patch that fixes bug 1371937, along with a test case that reproduces the original problem. The patch is a port of the algorithm described here pretty much verbatim: http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-3-Core/namespaces-algorithms.html#normalizeDocumentAlgo to resolve namespace declarations. The patch also calls the normalizeNamespace method before calling writexml Note the patch is against minidom that comes with python 2.5, NOT WITH PYXML. I need this for an embedded project where pyxml is too big. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Jason Orendorff (jorend) Date: 2007-03-14 23:03 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=18139 Originator: NO Thanks for the patch. I think this is probably *not* desirable in this form. As a side effect of writexml(), this fixes up tagNames and attributes of elements in the document. DOM Level 3 Load and Save made the opposite decision: "The XML data is written to a string or an output stream. Any changes or fixups made during the serialization affect only the serialized data. The Document object and its children are never altered by the serialization operation." -- http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-DOM-Level-3-LS-20040407/load-save.html#LS-LSSerializer (first paragraph) I think that is the right approach. The new method Element.normalizeNamespace() isn't really a DOM method, though the appendix sort of makes it look that way. Incomplete - no doc patch. (I think there's also a bug in the line added to Document.writexml()-- can't Documents have children that aren't Elements?) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Paul Pacheco (paulpach) Date: 2006-12-24 10:32 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=794762 Originator: YES File Added: test_toxml.py ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Paul Pacheco (paulpach) Date: 2006-12-24 10:29 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=794762 Originator: YES File Added: normalizeNamespace.diff ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Paul Pacheco (paulpach) Date: 2006-12-23 15:02 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=794762 Originator: YES File Added: normalizeNamespace.diff ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=305470&aid=1621421&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Patches mailing list Patches@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/patches
