Hi List, I'm relatively new to xerces so please let me know if I'm completely on the wrong track. I've posted a similar question on the user list but have come across some issues that maybe more relevant on the dev list.
I'm working off the xerces 1.4.3 code base and am parsing an XML Schema document as follows: <?xml version = "1.0" encoding = "UTF-8"?> <xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"; xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"; xmlns:xml="http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace"; xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema.xsd http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace http://www.w3.org/2001/xml.xsd"; targetNamespace="http://jetty.coxless.com/schema/tmp"; xmlns:my-prefix="http://jetty.coxless.com/schema/tmp";> <xsd:element name="form"> <xsd:simpleType> <xsd:union memberTypes="xsd:string"/> </xsd:simpleType> </xsd:element> </xsd:schema> Whilst parsing this document with validation on it seems as if it attempts to resolve the uri prefix for the xml:lang attribute. As I understand it, it seems as if this is against the XML 1.0 REC. Please let me know if I'm doing something wrong or if it is actually a bug and I can hence start developing a patch for it. The actual stack trace is: org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: Schema error: prefix : [xml] cannot be resolved to a URI. at org.apache.xerces.framework.XMLParser.reportError(XMLParser.java:1204) at org.apache.xerces.validators.schema.TraverseSchema.reportSchemaError(TraverseSchema.java:8938) at org.apache.xerces.validators.schema.TraverseSchema.reportGenericSchemaError(TraverseSchema.java:8925) at org.apache.xerces.validators.schema.TraverseSchema.resolvePrefixToURI(TraverseSchema.java:509) at org.apache.xerces.validators.schema.TraverseSchema.traverseAttributeDecl(TraverseSchema.java:5905) at org.apache.xerces.validators.schema.TraverseSchema.traverseAttributeGroupDecl(TraverseSchema.java:6403) at org.apache.xerces.validators.schema.TraverseSchema.doTraverseSchema(TraverseSchema.java:751) at org.apache.xerces.validators.schema.TraverseSchema.<init>(TraverseSchema.java:547) at org.apache.xerces.validators.schema.TraverseSchema.traverseImport(TraverseSchema.java:2026) at org.apache.xerces.validators.schema.TraverseSchema.doTraverseSchema(TraverseSchema.java:728) at org.apache.xerces.validators.schema.TraverseSchema.<init>(TraverseSchema.java:547) at org.apache.xerces.validators.common.XMLValidator.resolveSchemaGrammar(XMLValidator.java:2783) at org.apache.xerces.validators.common.XMLValidator.parseSchemas(XMLValidator.java:2669) at org.apache.xerces.validators.common.XMLValidator.bindNamespacesToElementAndAttributes(XMLValidator.java:2610) at org.apache.xerces.validators.common.XMLValidator.callStartElement(XMLValidator.java:1152) at org.apache.xerces.framework.XMLDocumentScanner.scanElement(XMLDocumentScanner.java:1806) at org.apache.xerces.framework.XMLDocumentScanner$ContentDispatcher.dispatch(XMLDocumentScanner.java:949) at org.apache.xerces.framework.XMLDocumentScanner.parseSome(XMLDocumentScanner.java:381) at org.apache.xerces.framework.XMLParser.parse(XMLParser.java:1081) at org.apache.xerces.jaxp.DocumentBuilderImpl.parse(DocumentBuilderImpl.java:195) -- Regards, Minh Kama Yie Nuix --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
