RE: rfc 1808 and rfc 2693 -- urls (fwd)
Hi,
I'm quite certain that there are problems with XMLUri and XMLURL in Xerces
2.0. I found them when trying to use this constructor from XMLUri:
XMLUri::XMLUri ( const XMLUri *const baseURI, const XMLCh *const uriSpec)
For the first parameter I have a pointer to a valid baseURI, and am
passing in a relative URI as the second parameter.
I found, when using the test cases from rf2693 Appendix C, that newly
constructed URI's text (using getUriText) does not match the results given
in the rfc.
ex. base URI="http://a/b/c/d;p?q" and relative URI = "g:h". rfc says this
should be resolved as "g:h" when actually the text returned is
"http://a/b/c/g:h"
I also found that there were similar issues when running the test cases
using this constructor from XMLURL:
XMLURL (const XMLCh *const baseURL,const char *const relativeURL)
I did post about this before, but no one got back to me and I haven't had
a chance to have an indepth look at this yet...
Thanks!
Cheers,
Jennifer

Posted by Tinny Ng <tn...@ca.ibm.com>.
XMLUri is supposed to be conformant to RFC2396. If it's not, then it's a
bug and please open a bugzilla defect.
