2. M6 Status - Lawrence Mandel

Lawrence: Graham, have you made any progress with the URI resolver?
Graham: I've got a framework in place with a simple URI resolver using a properties file. There are a few issues such as hard coded XSDs in Woden but this is mostly working. I'm also working on a resolver for the OASIS catalog standard to be optionally used. This will require resolver.jar from xml commons.
Lawrence: Great progress. As a reminder, in Eclipse we will plug in our own URI resolution framework that supports chaining resolvers and dynamic binding of new resolvers. Multiple resolvers, chaining, etc. all should be out of scope for Woden. Woden should simply support the addition of a single URI resolver that clients can use to do more advanced resolution.
Graham: In order to contribute a resolver a resolver factory needs to be created and made available anywhere on the classpath. I'll look for feedback on this mechanism, which I chose for consistency with existing Woden structure, once I contribute the patch. I'm going to try to get something out by the end of this week but only if I can get it in a state that it can be used.
Lawrence: You may have identified a Woden configuration issue. Woden should follow the examples set by other parsers and allow multiple parser instances to be configured in different ways in the same VM. As you said, we'll take a further look at this once you make a patch available.
