Hey All,
I'm happy to announce that the first official release of Xerces.pm 1.4
(1.4.1).
You can download it from:
http://xml.apache.org/dist/xerces-p/stable/XML-Xerces-1.4.1.tar.gz
Release Notes:
=============
- Inheritance of all Xerces classes now works! For example, it
is possible to subclass any of the DOM_Node classes with
your own Perl-based ones without throwing SWIG runtime type
checking errors.
- test scripts now use PerlContentHandler and
PerlDocumentHandler classes for SAX 1.0 and 2.0.
- general cleanup of test script output. Some tests marked as
'should fail', that means a Xerces-C feature is broken and
so the failure is just a placeholder until they fix it.
- Fixed bugs in test scripts. In Perl prior to 5.6 buffered IO
was handled differently, and file handles need to be closed
to ensure a flush of the data. (thanks to
"Matthew D. Langston" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, and
"Benjamin Low" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>).
- XMLException's are now supported via the
PerlExceptionHandler class. These exceptions are thrown
outside of parsing and are not handled by the standard
ErrorHandler mechanism.
Contrary to a previous statement I made, Xerces.pm is still completely
reliant on SWIG for generation of both Xerces.pm and Xerces.C. My
previous attempt at customizing Xerces.pm broke everything, so I will
need to try again.
Enjoy,
jas.
