[jira] [Resolved] (XERCESJ-1690) XMLUtils.isNameStart does not recognize valid characters

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESJ-1690?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Michael Glavassevich resolved XERCESJ-1690.
-------------------------------------------
    Resolution: Not A Problem

This is not a defect. Xerces supports XML 1.0 4th edition as required by the JAXP specification. The document you linked to is XML 1.0 5th edition which changed some of the character definitions. There are no plans to support XML 1.0 5th edition.

> the Xerces util class XMLChar does not recognize the full range of XML name start characters?
> see [https://www.w3.org/TR/xml/#NT-NameStartChar]
> I wrote a quick test and found that there were a number of characters that Xerces does not support.  Miscategorization appears to start at 0x132.  There are 936990 miscategorized characters
