Hi, I am pleased to announce the release of Xerces-C++ 3.1.0. This version is interface-compatible (but not necessarily binary-compatible) with Xerces-C++ 3.0.x and contains the following major new features and improvements:
* Working multi-import support. The support for handling multiple import declarations with the same target namespaces has been improved and thoroughly tested. Furthermore, the same logic was extended to loadGrammar and the schemaLocation attributes so that you can load several schemas with the same namespace and/or "add" more declarations with the schemaLocation attributes. To enable this feature, set the XMLUni::fgXercesHandleMultipleImports feature/parameter to true. Starting with this release all the tests and examples have multi-import support enabled by default. * New property, XMLUni::fgXercesLowWaterMark, allows the configuration of the parser buffer low water mark. In particular, setting this value to 0 disables data caching in the parser which can be useful if you want the SAX events to be dispatched as soon as the data is available. * DOMLSParser::parseWithContext implementation. In particular, this functionality allows one to parse a document fragment with missing namespace declarations as long as the context document provides them. * Improved performance and reduced memory footprint when validating with large maxOccurs values. If available, the SSE2 instructions are used to further speedup this case. * Improved scalability of the XML Schema identity checking (key, keyref, and unique). * Multiple XML Schema conformance fixes. * More robust external library detection (libcurl and ICU). In particular, the build system no longer tries to inject any additional paths such as /usr or /usr/local. * Compilation of the ICU message loader resources no longer depends on the ICU implementation details. The following bugs and security vulnerabilities have been fixed in this release compared to the previous release (3.0.1): CVE-2009-1885, XERCESC-646, XERCESC-697, XERCESC-809, XERCESC-961, XERCESC-1021, XERCESC-1051, XERCESC-1246, XERCESC-1249, XERCESC-1263, XERCESC-1380, XERCESC-1480, XERCESC-1481, XERCESC-1507, XERCESC-1568, XERCESC-1583, XERCESC-1607, XERCESC-1659, XERCESC-1703, XERCESC-1707, XERCESC-1713, XERCESC-1716, XERCESC-1717, XERCESC-1747, XERCESC-1748, XERCESC-1759, XERCESC-1808, XERCESC-1826, XERCESC-1831, XERCESC-1833, XERCESC-1847, XERCESC-1852, XERCESC-1856, XERCESC-1858, XERCESC-1863, XERCESC-1866, XERCESC-1867, XERCESC-1868, XERCESC-1869, XERCESC-1870, XERCESC-1871, XERCESC-1872, XERCESC-1874, XERCESC-1878, XERCESC-1882, XERCESC-1892, XERCESC-1893, XERCESC-1894, XERCESC-1896 XERCESC-1898 For the compete list of changes see: http://xerces.apache.org/xerces-c/releases.html This release is available in source code and as pre-compiled libraries/examples for the following platforms and architectures: 32 bit: Windows - MSVC 7.1 Windows - MSVC 8.0 Windows - MSVC 9.0 GNU/Linux - g++ 3.4.x AIX 5.3 - xlC 7 Solaris 10 - Sun C++ 5.10, both SPARC and x86 HP-UX 11i - aCC A.06.x, IA64 Mac OS X - g++ 4.0, x86 64 bit: Windows - MSVC 8.0 Windows - MSVC 9.0 GNU/Linux - g++ 3.4.x AIX 5.3 - xlC 7 Solaris 10 - Sun C++ 5.7, both SPARC and x86-64 HP-UX 11i - aCC A.06.x, IA64 The source code archives and pre-compiled libraries are available from the download page: http://xerces.apache.org/xerces-c/download.cgi Note that it takes up to 24 hours for the release to propagate to all the mirrors so use the master distribution directory if the files are not yet available on your favorite mirror. It is important that you verify the integrity of the files you download using either the PGP signatures or MD5 checksums as described on the download page. Finally I would like to thank all who contributed source code, submitted bug reports, and helped test the beta releases.
