We want to finalize the description of Xerces validation features and related properties. The default configuration will be switched to StandartParserConfiguration, meaning that the default parser includes the following components: scanners, DTDValidator, NamespaceBinder.
http://xml.org/sax/features/validation -------------------------------------- true report validation errors false Do not report validation errors. Note: If this feature is set to true, the document must specify a grammar. If "http://java.sun.com/xml/jaxp/properties/schemaLanguage"; property is not set, the parser will decide against which grammar validation occur and it will depend on the pipeline:<bold> the default parser configuration does not include XML schema validator</bold>. http://apache.org/xml/features/validation/schema -------------------------------------- true Insert XMLSchemaValidator in the pipeline. If DTD is not found, validation will occur against XML Schema. Note: this feature will only take effect if http://xml.org/sax/features/validation is set to true. false Validation outcome depends on http://xml.org/sax/features/validation feature and the pipeline. We should either introduce a new Xerces schemaLanguage property or use JAXPs one. That will depend on final definition of this feature in JAXP http://java.sun.com/xml/jaxp/properties/schemaLanguage ----------------------------------------------------- Defined in JAXP. [see thread "Re: JAXP, validation, schemas"] Note: If XML Schema is specified via this property, Xerces implementation will add to the StandardParserConfiguration XML Schema validator. Open issue: do we allow changing the value of schemaLanguage property between different parse() calls?
