Hi again, before bringing up another issue let me first say that I enjoy using CASTOR.
Every time I find an issue I keep telling me it would have been much harder
to code our project with an own XML-JAVA binding framework - we would
have surely ended up with more bugs and less features than CASTOR :)
Having said that here is my issue: I can't seem to get my Marshaller
instance
to honour the setMarshalAsDocument() setting. I have tried with both 0.9.3.9
and today's (jan-25) snapshot. I always get the XML declaration at the
start.
Somehow related to this I never get a DOCTYPE in my marshalled XML
files. The API documentation says (Marshaller.setMarshalAsDocument):
"Sets whether or not to marshal as a document which includes
the XML declaration, and if necessary the DOCTYPE declaration"
So when is it "necessary" to have a DOCTYPE ? I tried to explicitly
set the root element (Marshaller.setRootElement()) which didn't
change the behaviour. What did I miss ?
Thanks for your help,
Laslo
PS: I attached an archive containing the schema, JAVA test class and
ANT script for reproducing the issue.
Only adjust path to castor.jar and xerces.jar in "init" target and
run "ant asdoc" and see src/asdoc/out1.xml and .../out2.xml .
