Hi guys

I created a new configuration based on the work on monty for the XMLParser. 
Please test and let us know.
In PharoExtras/XMLParser and available via the configurationBrowser.
I merged its package and updated the configuration as well as added catalog 
meta data.
Now it would be great if somebody would join maintaining this package. 


Thanks Monty

Stef

Enhancements made by Monty. These updates add validation against internal and 
external DTDs, proper replacement of general and parameter entites, 
customizable resolution of external parsed entities using Zinc and FileSystem, 
awareness of notations and unparsed entities, preservation of the internal DTD 
subset by the DOM parser (so printing a parsed doc with a DTD will produce 
approximately what was input), line numbers reporting in error messages, and 
better well-formed and validity constraints.

I had to largely rewrite the tokenizer to make everything work, but I followed 
the spec closely, and it is about the same speed as long as there is no DTD to 
validate against.

Another problem is that there are so many deprecated methods cluttering up 
classes, some of which have been deprecated for years! It is confusing and hard 
to see which methods to use just by browsing the protocols. I would really 
suggest using this code to get rid of the XML-Parser methods that have been 
deprecated for at least a year:

expiry := 1 year.
(SystemNavigation default allClassesInPackageNamed: 'XML-Parser')
do: [:class |
class selectors do: [:selector | | compiledMethod timeStamp |
compiledMethod := class compiledMethodAt: selector.
timeStamp := compiledMethod timeStamp copyAfter: Character space.
(compiledMethod isDeprecated
and: [(DateAndTime now - (DateAndTime fromString: timeStamp)) > expiry])
ifTrue: [class removeSelector: selector]]].
