Hi Earl,
I personally would welcome your patches if you make them publicly available
in Bugzilla or similar place. Perhaps some time later they will be
incorporated into the main stream...
I have come across and reported one of the issues you address (regarding
verbosity), but was somewhat shy to intrude without community feedback...
But your message is a sort of first feedback I get :) So IMHO you did the
right job :)
Regards,
Sergey

Subject: More fixes for resolver: xml.catalog.verbosity & catalog parsing
Since it appears that development of the resolver code is
stagnant due to response from my previous message containing
patches, I'm not sure if it still worth the effort to
submit others.
However, for a project I'm working on, I've made a couple
of other modifications that may be of interest to others:
(1) Bug-fix to honor xml.catalog.verbosity system property.
I noticed that if one does not use CatalogManager.properties,
this system property is never checked.
(2) Proper setting of systemID of InputSource of SAX parsing
when parsing XML catalog files. W/o this fix, if a catalog
file has references to external entities using relative SYSTEM
identifiers, they are resolved relative to the current working
directory versus the location of the catalog file being parsed.
In my case, I was dealing with catalog files that included
<!DOCTYPE catalog SYSTEM "..."> declarations using relative paths
to catalog.dtd. Things would bomb out during parsing since the
SAX parser could not find the file specified due to invalid base
URI context.
If there is interest, I can post patches.
--ewh
