ProjectX to Xerces migration
Hello,
I was developing an application using Sun's ProjectX parser, and now I'm
migrating it to Xerces Java.
It happens that the two parsers give me two different DOM trees for this XML:
<definition>
<group code='PM'>
...
While Sun's parser ommitted the #text node between the two tags (the newline),
Xerces is not ignoring it, although definition's DTD declarations doesn't allow
#PCDATA:
<!ELEMENT definition (group)+>
I'm using the validating parser from both packages. Is there a way to duplicate
ProjectX's behaviour using Xerces?
TIA

Do a checkout of the latest source from the CVS repository. Or
wait until we have a new release that includes that feature. I
just added this feature recently so it must have been after we
did the 1.0.1 release.

Hi, Ted, thank's for the quick reply! But now the following exception is thrown:
http://apache.org/xml/features/dom/include-ignorable-whitespace
at org.apache.xerces.framework.XMLParser.setFeature(XMLParser.java:1442)
at org.apache.xerces.parsers.DOMParser.setFeature(DOMParser.java:601)
at widesoft.xml.loader.RndConverter2.main(RndConverter2.java:304)
I'd guess that Xerces is not recognizing such a feature. It's not documented on
the features page either.
I haven't mentioned before, I'm using Xerces 1.0.1.
TIA

Try setting the feature
http://apache.org/xml/features/dom/include-ignorable-whitespace
to false. This will keep ignorable whitespace out of the DOM
