             Summary: Save location (file, line, col) information on DOM Nodes
                 Key: XERCESJ-1771
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESJ-1771
             Project: Xerces2-J
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: DOM (Level 3 Core)
    Affects Versions: 2.12.2
            Reporter: Mike Beckerle


We need a feature where the file/line/col information is attached to every DOM 
node.

This will then allow Apache ws-schema to provide access to the file/line/col 
for every XML Schema component. 

That in turn enables our Apache Daffodil DFDL schema compiler to use ws-schema 
internally to parse the DFDL Schema (which is an enhanced XML Schema), and be 
able to issue precise diagnostic messages. 

Without this enhancement to Xerces J, ws-schema can't give us line-info (since 
it uses DOM trees), and so, Apache Daffodil can't use well, any of this nice 
XML/XSD infrastructure. 

This looks fairly easy to do (I started a PR on it. 
[https://github.com/apache/xerces-j/pull/7,] but I'm stuck on getting it to 
build and run my Junit tests.)
