Important [Bug in XIncludeParserConfiguration]Re: CODE FREEZE

Hi Elena,
	

     I am not sure if we have time for any fix but I just found that 
there is very serious bug in Xerces when using XIncludeConfiguration. 
There are many DOM failures as a result of that. Infact things wont work 
if there is any DOCTYPE declaration inside the document. I would be 
sending the fix in few minutes.


Thanks
Neeraj

Hi Elena,

	Since you have annonded the CODE FREEZE. I am not committing the fix 
but have attatched with this mail :-)

Problem is pretty serious because DTD pipeline is not set properly.
Therefore any DOM based parser parsing XML document containin DOCTYPE 
delcarations wont be able to get the information present (like 
Notation/Entities etc)because of this.  Same problem is there for SAX 
parser. The problem exists for both XML 1.0 and XML 1.1 documents.
If you haven't tagged it yet we should make it part of Xerces2.6 release.

Thanks,
Neeraj
