SAX report errors out of time

[Eduardo Y�nez]

Hi every body, 

This may be an old issue, if it is, please excuse me. 

Could any body tell me why SAX2 report an xml instance error (according
to a suplied xml schema) only when the parent of the problematic node
is closed?

What if i have the following schema:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<schema xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/10/XMLSchema";>
  <element name="Customers">
    <complexType>
      <sequence>
        <element ref="customer" maxOccurs="unbounded"/>
      </sequence>
    </complexType>
  </element>
  <element name="customer">
    <complexType>
      <attribute name="haveInfo">
        <simpleType>
          <restriction base="string">
            <enumeration value="true"/>
            <enumeration value="false"/>
          </restriction>
        </simpleType>
      </attribute>
      <attribute name="customerId" use="required">
        <simpleType>
          <restriction base="string">
            <minLength value="16"/>
            <maxLength value="20"/>
          </restriction>
        </simpleType>
      </attribute>
    </complexType>
  </element>
</schema>

And the following xml file, through which i wish to update a database
column:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Customers xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2000/10/XMLSchema-instance";
xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="Customers.xsd">
  <customer customerId="6517514000000000" haveInfo="true"/>
  <customer haveInfo="true"/> <!-- An error!!! -->
  <customer customerId="6517514999999999"/>
  <!-- ** any number of customer nodes ** -->
  <customer customerId="6517514999999999" haveInfo="true"/>
</Customers> <!-- The error is reported here?!? -->

How could i handle the error in the moment it occurs?. I used the
SAX2Writer sample that comes with the Xerces 1.3.0 distribution for
doing this tests. I think that the error callback should be called 
immediately an error node (not conforming to the schema) is found.
Isn�t it?

We can work around the problem, but don�t you think that SAX2 should
work this kind of problems immediately?

Thanks for your help!

Regards,
Eduardo Yanez.
