Brian Minchau updated XALANJ-920:
---------------------------------
Version: Latest Development Code
(was: 2.3Dx)
> Text Nodes are split randomly
> -----------------------------
>
> Key: XALANJ-920
> URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XALANJ-920
> Project: XalanJ2
> Type: Bug
> Components: Xalan
> Versions: Latest Development Code
> Environment: Operating System: Windows NT/2K
> Platform: PC
> Reporter: Pietari Laurila
> Assignee: Xalan Developers Mailing List
> Attachments: material.zip

> We use the Xerces 2.0.1 parser and Xalan 2.3.1 transformer. We create a DOM
> result like:
> TransformerFactory tFactory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
> Transformer transformer = tFactory.newTransformer(new StreamSource
> (definitionSource));
> DOMResult domResult = new DOMResult();
> transformer.transform(new StreamSource(extractSource), domResult);
> Document document = (Document) domResult.getNode();
> extractRootNode = document.getDocumentElement();
> Then we operate on the extractRootNode. The problem is as follows. Sometimes,
> and this seems to occur quite randomly, an element only having text content
> will have TWO, not one, Text Node children. The DOM 2 Core specification says:
> If there is no markup inside an element's content, the text is contained in a
> single object implementing the Text interface that is the only child of the
> element.
> So the behaviour of either Xerces or Xalan is not according to the spec. The
> problem is totally reproducible, but only occurs with certain XML files. In
> addition, on different machines the splitting occurs in different parts of
> the
> same XML file!
> There is a workaround -- merge the Text Node contents when operating on the
> tree -- but this is not convenient; others are virtually bound to experience
> this bug also. The problem is new to 2.x, apparently; we didn't have it in
> 1.x.
