Xalan 1.3 -> 1.4 Changelog?

I was looking at the major changes since 1.3 as listed at

http://xml.apache.org/xalan-c/readme.html#done

In trying to get XML::Xalan to work with Xalan C++ 1.4, I noticed two
functions that seem to have been removed from Xalan altogether:

getNumber() and supports( XalanDOMString, XalanDOMString )

I'm hoping to be able to get some patches going for XML::Xalan, but I
need to know more details about why these were removed. There was no
information about them I could find in the changes list or in the bug
database. And there doesn't seem to be a thorough Changelog anywhere
in the sources.

Thanks!

Thanks for the information.

For any interested parties on this list, I was able successfully to build
XML::Xalan 0.44 (available from CPAN) against Xalan C++ 1.4 by removing
the reference to getNumber() from xs.dom and by changing the references
to supports() to isSupported() in the same file.

OK, so it was part of XalanDocument then.  You can ignore this -- it was an
internal interface and should not have been exposed anyway.

getNumber() seems to be a party of Stylesheet among others. I see it in

XSLT/Stylesheet.hpp
XalanSourceTree/XalanSourceTreeDocument.hpp
XercesParserLiaison/XercesDocumentBridge.hpp
XalanDOM/XalanDocument.hpp

in the 1.3 sources.

Thanks for the info about isSupported()!

Hi Thomas,

Can you give more details about getNumber()?  Does it belong to any
particular class?

supports(const XalanDOMString&, const XalanDOMString&) was changed to
isSupported(const XalanDOMString&, const XalanDOMString&) for consistency
with the naming in the DOM.
