Other than some things I have to port up from the branch and other bug reports that have come in, the two big commits on trunk are: r1517488 (XERCESC-2016) r1528170 (XERCESC-2019) The former is a patch that's pretty invasive to add XML 1.0 5th edition support, which I surmise actually removes a lot of the special handling of XML 1.1 All of that is outside my expertise, so I don't have any insight into how risky that change is or how well it was tested. For myself I don't need it at all and would as soon undo it if it can't be verified as safe, but I'm not suggesting that exactly, just noting it's significant. The latter is smaller and is a change to memory handling of text buffers in the DOM. I haven't fully grokked that yet but I doubt it's a big deal, just worth a look. Everything else on trunk now that's not on the branch is much simpler and I don't see as risky. -- Scott --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: c-dev-unsubscr...@xerces.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: c-dev-h...@xerces.apache.org
