Status of Xerces 3.0 & Mac OS X updates
Any idea when 3.0 will release?
I did find this on the future release page:
"At present, we believe there will be a 3.0 release with new functionality
targeted roughly at the end of 2007."
What I'm really looking forward to is a Mac OS X implementation that is
posix based instead of the old Mac file handling routines. Yes, I know
2.8 has support for posix, but it still has the old stuff in there and it
wont compile 64-bit on Leopard without some hacking :-)

Hi Kevin,
there is currently a beta version of 3.0, available at
http://people.apache.org/builds/xerces/c/
If you could try it and give us a feedback, it would be great.
Thanks,
Alberto

Also, I'd be happy to work on a patch for this if I get a pointer in the
right direction.

At one time I think I filed a bug on this, but it may have predated Jira. I
would *really* like to see the parsing of schemas during XML validation
honor the initial parser's "external schema location" property instead of
using the location hints inside schema import statements. That one issue has
caused me no end of pain.

I hope we will be able to get it ready for release in the next
2-3 months. Here is the list of outstanding tasks that need to
be completed:
* Documentation updates
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESC-1784
* Fixes for remaining bugs that are schedules for 3.0.0
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESC/fixforversion/12312833
* Performance improvements
* Changes to support smooth integration with XQilla
* It would also be nice to identify and fix (if any) major outstanding
bugs in XML Schema support:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESC/component/11071
As Alberto mentioned in his reply, we have published the first
beta not long ago which you can test to make sure there are no
issues with your platform(s).
