class org.apache.jackrabbit.name.QName has a hardcoded dependency on Xerces
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: JCR-217
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-217
Project: Jackrabbit
Type: Bug
Versions: 1.0
Reporter: Ragy Eleish
Priority: Critical
The class org.apache.jackrabbit.name.QName, has an unneeded dependency on
Xerces which make it difficult to work with the XML parser or ones choice.
The dependency (on line 246) is on the method "XMLChar.isValidNCName" only. I
suggest one of the following solutions
- Copy the implementation of this method to the QName class, it is a very
simple implementation.
- Use the mehtod provided in JAXP 1.3 javax.xml.XMLUtils.isValidNCName, which
will create dependency on JAXP 1.3 though. JDK 1.5 ships with JAXP 1.3
This dependency is causing us alot of trouble since we need to use another
parser that is optimized for large XML data.
