Tobias Bocanegra commented on JCRVLT-391: ----------------------------------------- the Eclipse Distribution License is better, but we would need to check with Adobe Legal, before we can include it in the product. I would prefer a solution w/o a _problematic_ license. > WDYT about the max line length? I don't think this is a problem. > Remove copied classes of Xerces > ------------------------------- > > Key: JCRVLT-391 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCRVLT-391 > Project: Jackrabbit FileVault > Issue Type: Task > Components: vlt > Affects Versions: 3.4.0 > Reporter: Konrad Windszus > Assignee: Konrad Windszus > Priority: Major > Fix For: 3.4.2 > > > Currently the classes below {{o.a.j.v.util.xml}} seem to be a copy of Xerces > classes. Instead of just relying on an old copy one should use a proper Maven > dependency together with https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-shade-plugin/ > or https://bnd.bndtools.org/instructions/conditionalpackage.html to make sure > update to the latest version is possible. > Also it needs to be clarified if the embedded Xerces should be listed > explicitly in > https://github.com/apache/jackrabbit-filevault/blob/trunk/LICENSE.txt. > The original intent is stated in > https://github.com/apache/jackrabbit-filevault/blob/9fa6c72bf4bdf36331b50b9370f3ed826a4622e8/vault-core/src/main/java/org/apache/jackrabbit/vault/util/xml/serialize/XMLSerializer.java#L64. > The only modifications to the original Xerces were linebreaks after > attributes and an alphabetic attribute sort order. > The following alternatives are available: > # Use the {{javax.xml.transform}} API (JAXP Transformation API, TrAX). There > is no official way though to control the order of attribute, therefore I > would recommend to already emit the attributes in the correct order instead > of reordering them with the output. Controlling the indentation of > attributes is hard to achieve: > https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8393370/use-xslt-to-add-newlines-after-attributes > # Use StAX with the Woodstox implementation. Seems faster, but still no > sophisticated output formatting options available (like indentation options > and line length) > # Implement a simple serializer based on SAX events from scratch -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
