The plan is to include DOM Level 3 Core and Load/Save as part of the standard distribution in the next release [1]. We hope we can do this soon. > I ask specifically because the current default xercesImpl.jar contains a > org.w3c.dom.ls.LSParser interface class which is not conformant with the > spec, in the sense that getDomConfig returns a Xerces specific object, > of class org.apache.xerces.dom3.DOMConfiguration.

Since we still distribute DOM Level 2 Core, this package allows DOM Level 3 Core to coexist with it. When you build the DOM Level 3 distribution, the Ant script will replace all imports of org.apache.xerces.dom3 with org.w3c.dom. This hack should be gone soon. > Kind regards, > > --Sander. > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [1] http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/*checkout*/xml-xerces/java/Xerces2.7.0-REL_PLAN.html?content-type=text%2Fplain&rev=1.2 --------------------------- Michael Glavassevich XML Parser Development IBM Toronto Lab E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
