sandip-db opened a new pull request, #44685: URL: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/44685
### What changes were proposed in this pull request? Spark-XML library users will notice some changes with built-in XML. Notably, some of the character data that was earlier dropped by spark-xml will be faithfully parsed by the built-in XML. Support for new data types like DecimalType, TimeStampNTZ, etc. have also been added. Few spark-xml users may still want to continue using the library. Rather than implicitly switching to the built-in XML, this PR throws an error when an external data source is detected for XML format. Users can continue using the old spark-xml library by specifying the full package name. Alternatively, they can remove spark-xml from the classpath and switch to built-in XML. ### Why are the changes needed? Same as above ### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change? Yes ### How was this patch tested? New unit test ### Was this patch authored or co-authored using generative AI tooling? No -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
