On the off chance that it might help encourage people to start thinking about the issues, I just did a test run - same sources compiled first with Xerces 1 and then with Xerces 2. You can see the results at: http://nagoya.apache.org/~rubys/gump/xerces1/ http://nagoya.apache.org/~rubys/gump/xerces2/ Analysis: Compilation failures: xml-xalan2 Runtime failures with xerces2 but not present in xerces1: xml-axis Pre-existing problems, unrelated to Xerces bcel, openejb Failures due to indirect dependencies not being satisfied: test-ant, openjms Failures due to direct dependencies not being satisfied: too numerous to list Recommendations: Clearly the compilation failure with xml-xalan2 is the one most blocking forward progress. I personally make no assumptions as to whether this should be fixed in Xalan or Xerces, but it would be nice if this were resolved before Xerces 2 reaches a point where release candidates are produced. I've also attached below the XML from the xml-axis test case which Xerces 2 appears unable to parse. It only takes me a few minutes to set up this test, and about an hour to run (significantly less if there are massive prereq failures), so I can rerun these tests any time you guys are ready. - Sam Ruby XML from the xml-axis junit failure: <?xml version="1.0"?> <soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"; xmlns:soapenc="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"; xmlns:xsi ="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"; xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";> <soap:Body> <m:reverseData xmlns:m="urn:m"><arg0 xmlns:foo="urn:foo"><field1>5</field1><field2>abc</field2><field3>3</field3></arg0></m:reverseData></soap:Body> </soap:Envelope> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
