[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XMLRPC-60?page=comments#action_66628 ] elharo commented on XMLRPC-60: ------------------------------
A quick perusal of the MinML web page shows that it advertises non-conformance to XML. In particular it fails to handle the internal DTD subset as required by the XML specification. I don't doubt that I could find other non-conformances if I actually started parsing documents with it. > MinML is Evil > ------------- > > Key: XMLRPC-60 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XMLRPC-60 > Project: XML-RPC > Type: Bug > Components: Source > Versions: 2.0 > Reporter: elharo > Priority: Critical > > MinML is not an XML parser, It does not correctly implement the XML > specification in a variety of ways. It should not be bundled and should not > be used. Given that Java 1.4 now includes a much more conformant parser (and > Java 1.5 includes an even better one) there's no excuse for distributing a > non-conformant parser like MinML. XML-RPC is XML, and nothing less than a > real XML parser can handle it correctly. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
