Class !DigesterRuleParser in the xmlrules package uses the deprecated begin()
and end() methods (as do some other rules). Fix these. In general, get rid of
use of deprecated methods.
=== Think about parsing multiple documents ===
+
Some people have expressed the desire to use the same Digester instance to
parse multiple xml documents. This is currently (v1.6) fairly unsafe.
In the current (1.6) version, the best option is probably to create a
configured Rules object and a configured !SAXParser object and keep these
cached for reuse but recreate a new Digester object each time. At the least we
should carefully document what objects are safe for reuse and which are not.
And what the implications of using Digesters and Rules objects in multithreaded
apps. I also think the APIs for preconfiguring Rules or !RuleSet objects and
then reusing them are rather inconsistent, and need some review/fixing. This is
particularly important for the !XmlRules stuff, as parsing an xmlrules config
file is not a quick process.
See bugzilla #29428 for some discussion of this.
+
+=== Make the XML Rules DTD more consistent ===
+
+Some things are hyphenated, some are not. One tag uses attr-name while the
rest use attrname. One uses prop-name and another propertyname.
