In Xerces C++ version 1.4 there is a comment in startScanTagNS:
// <TBD>
// <NOTE> There is an issue here in that (when Schema comes along) if
// there were defauled/fixed xmlns attributes defined for this element,
// it is too late for them to affect the prefix of this element (though
// technically they should.) There is no way out of this unfortunately.
This was fixed in XMLScanner.cpp revision 1.34. I have run into this
problem with DTD validation and defaulted namespace attributes.
I'd like to know if I could do a similar patch on version 1.4. I know that
there has been an overhaul/generalization of the validation system to
support schema since 1.4 so perhaps a patch isn't possible (as the comment
seems to suggest). This is a fairly serious issue, but I'm extremely
reluctant to move to 1.6 at this point (both because of the uncertainty and
the fact that I have already revised our local copy of 1.4 with unrelated
changes).
Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated.
Chris
