The default depends on how've you created the parser. JAXP says the default is false
[1]. SAX says the default is true [2]. There isn't a bug here. It's just a conflict
between the two specs which often burns users who assume that SAX and JAXP are
consistent. Glancing at the source code for XMLValidateTask [3] and JAXPUtils [4] a
non-namespace aware JAXP SAXParser is being created and used.
As to whether namespace support is required for schema processing and validation, it's
not specific to Xerces. W3C XML Schemas are built upon XML namespaces (among other
standards).

Key: XERCESJ-979
Summary: default of the feature "http://xml.org/sax/features/namespaces";
Type: Bug
Status: Resolved
Priority: Major
Resolution: INCOMPLETE

Description:
I have been working on a bug report
http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29187 titled "xmlvalidate schema
validation not working".
I found out that if the following XML fragment is added to <attribute
name="http://xml.org/sax/features/namespaces"; value="true"/> the body of the
xmlvalidate tag in the ant project file, then the validation works.
But the documentation of xerces says that the namespaces feature defaults to true.
http://xml.apache.org/xerces-j/features.html
So I suspect one of 3 possibilities :
- documentation bug : the default of the feature is false,
- code bug : the intended default for this feature is true, but the code sets it to
false or "forgets" to set it explicitly to true
- something specific for the xml schema validation implementation present in xerces ???
I will add the feature to one of the examples in the documentation of ant.
Cheers,
Antoine
