Michael Glavassevich commented on XERCESJ-1748:
-----------------------------------------------
Xerces relies on the JDK for parsing URLs and opening connections to them. How
is Xerces different than any other client of java.net.URL? Is this not
potentially a problem for any code that use that API? Trying to understand why
this is considered an issue with Xerces and not the JDK.
