Re: Getting XMLBeans out of Attic
Daniel and all: We're using XmlBeans quite a bit and are interested to keep this alive as well. Would be great to have more information around the Apache rules/processes, PMC, roles/responsibilities, etc. to understand how we could support the project. best *P On 7/23/13 5:29 PM, Daniel Lübke wrote: Hi list, I am a long-time user of XMLBeans, most of the time as part of the BPELUnit project.

Re: Project still maintained?
We're using XmlBeans in several of our projects and haven't found anything else out there that does the job like it, particularly when it comes to dealing with substitution groups and other advanced schema features. Would very much like to see this stay out of the attic! best *P On 7/23/13 3:26 PM, Elvis Stansvik wrote: 2013/7/23 Bill Stafford bstaff...@artificialmed.com mailto:bstaff...@artificialmed.com Peter Keller is correct, VTD is no substitute for XMLBeans. I would class the email suggesting that it was as spam. The next best approach, if XMLBeans is not an option, would be JAXB. But JAXB is nothing like XMLBeans so I would not call JAXB an equivalent, just a substitute. Since I wrote my first mail I've switched over to JAXB, which is sufficient for my quite simple needs. But I still feel it's sad that XMLBeans has been left unmaintained. But I guess it's a fact of life. Regards, Elvis -=bill stafford
Re: [VOTE] XMLBeans v2.6.0-RC3 to become official release
Thanks Cezar.

Running xquery against non-document node?
Am trying to run a simple xquery statement such as var1.execQuery(count(varCatgry)); where var1 is a VarType (XmlObject) but am getting the following error form Saxon: net.sf.saxon.trans.XPathException: Source object represents a node other than a document node Can I only run a execQuery against a document?
