> Reuse parser and cache XML schema in XalanC
> -------------------------------------------
>
> Key: XALANC-191
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XALANC-191
> Project: XalanC
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: XalanC
> Affects Versions: 1.4.x
> Environment: Operating System: All
> Platform: All
> Reporter: Thomas Cherel
>
> It would be nice to expose in XalanC the latest Xerces features to cache
> analyzed schema to be reused accross multiple parsing/validation.
> It would also mean the reuse of the same parser instance for multiple XSLT
> processing in XalanC and even within specific XSLT function such as the
> document() one.
> Here is a short version of an email exchange in the mailing list describing
> the issue with more details as well as providing a "workaround" to do it.

> Hi Thomas,
> You can use Xerces to parse a document without switching to the internal
> interfaces. Here's some pseudo-code, which I haven't tested, but which
> should give you an idea of what you need to do:
> void
> parse(
> const InputSource& theInputSource,
> XalanCompiledStylesheet* theStylesheet,
> const XSLTResultTarget& theResultTarget)
> {
> SAX2XMLReader* const theReader = XMLReaderFactory::createXMLReader();
> XalanTransformer theTransformer;
> XalanDocumentBuilder* const theBuilder =
> theTransformer.createDocumentBuilder();
> theReader->setContentHandler(theBuilder.getContentHandler());
> theReader->setLexicalHandler(theBuilder.getLexicalHandler());
> theReader->setDTDHandler(theBuilder.getDTDHandler());
> const XalanDOMString
> reuseGrammar("http://apache.org/xml/features/validation/reuse-grammar";);
> const XalanDOMString
> namespacePrefixes("http://xml.org/sax/features/namespace-prefixes";);
> theReader->setFeature(reuseGrammar.c_str(), true);
> theReader->setFeature(namespacePrefixes.c_str(), true);
> theReader->parse(theInputSource)
> delete theReader;
> theTransformer.transform(*theBuilder, theStylesheet, theResultTarget); }
> Of course, since I'm not really re-using the parser, it doesn't used the
> cached grammar, but it gives you an idea of how you can do this. The only
> drawback is that document brought into the transformation through the
> document() function will not use this parser instance, and so will not use
> the cached grammar.

> Until it gets added to Xalan, is there any way I can use the Xerces
> interface directly? For example, today, I can provide to Xalan an already
> parsed document (a DOM tree). Can I use the new Xerces API to generate such
> a DOM tree (and reuse schema/grammar for the validation that will be done at
> that time), and then pass it to Xalan (that will take care of the XSLT
> processing only)?

> Hi Thomas,
> With the latest Xerces, you can prime a parser instance with a particular
> schema, then have it re-use that schema over and over again. You can also
> have it re-use a grammar for every document it parses. However, these
> interfaces are new and still experimental, so I don't have much experience
> using them.
> We don't expose lots of the Xerces parser interfaces because it gets very
> burdensome to do so. However, this one is probably worth doing, so you
> might want to enter a Bugzilla request for an enhancement.

> When processing an XML document (applying a style sheet), I can turn on the
> validation of the XML document against its schema. Is there any way (or may
> be this is already done under the cover) to cache the XML schema for
> validation of other XML documents?
> What I mean is that if I process a bunch of XML documents in sequence, and
> all of them are using the same XML schema, it will be nice if the schema is
> downloaded and analyzed only once instead of for each document.
