Hi Elena, I think to pass initial values by default is the right thing especially considering the cases in which there were errors found during validation.
My only concern is if we change the default behaviour for elements, that of attributes also probably needs to be changed for better consistency. -Takuki Kamiya > -----Original Message----- > From: Elena Litani [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Wednesday, October 17, 2001 2:55 PM > To: [email protected]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Xerces 1.4.4: Exposing XML Schema normalized values [README] > > > Following the bug #1228 report [ > http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1228 ], we want to > introduce a feature that will allow users to control whether DOM/SAX > APIs expose normalized or "initial" (specified in XML > document instance) > element values. > > In previous Xerces1 versions by default we exposed element values that > were normalized according to XML Schema REC. > > For Xerces 1.4.4 we plan to introduce a feature > "../validation/normalize-element-contents" with the default value > "false"[!] meaning that applications will no longer receive normalized > element values. > > Question to users: given the fact that Xerces2 by default will NOT > expose normalized values (we believe this is the correct behavior), do > you mind us breaking compatibility for Xerces1 1.4.4 release? > > Do you prefer us introducing the > "../validation/normalize-element-contents" feature with the default > value set to true? > > We plan to release Xerces 1.4.4. as soon as possible, so > please express > your concerns if you have any. > > Thank you, > Elena. > > > > -------- Original Message -------- > Subject: Bug 1228 > Date: Wed, 17 Oct 2001 19:04:20 +0900 (JST) > From: TAMURA Kent <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Reply-To: [email protected] > To: [email protected] > > http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1228 > > I have posted a patch for the Bug #1228, which is a critical > problem for XML-Signature.
