Next release?
Not trying to be pushy or anything, but for planning purposes:
Any idea when the next official release might be available?
A guess to within several weeks would suite my needs just fine...
Thanks

Hey Tinny,
My vote is for a 1.5.2 release due to the many bug fixes (especially
with IDOM and the memory enhancements), and then keep 1.6 on target
for Dec.
Once you have full schema support, you may want to call it 2.0???
jas.

RE: Validating International Data Types
Posted by David Cleary <da...@progress.com>.
To support interoperability, the number of lexical representations a
datatype can support was limited. So, no, there is no way to validate a
number that is formated with a different lexical representation than what is
prescribed in the XML Schema specification. The solution is to leave
formatting in the presentation layer of the application while sticking to
the basics in your XML document.

Validating International Data Types
Posted by Lindsey McNerney <li...@yahoo.com>.
Is there a way to use Xerces or W3C schema for that
matter to validate international data types, for
instance using a comma to indicate a decimal within a
number instead of a period?
Thank you.

Re: using for schema validation with xerces 1.6
Posted by Tinny Ng <tn...@ca.ibm.com>.
By default the attribute 'processContents' for <any> is 'strict' which means
there must be a top-level declaration for the item available:
processContents = (lax | skip | strict) : strict
So if the element <test> is not declared anywhere, then the parser will
issue an error saying 'not found'. If you don't want the parser to locate
the declaration, please set processContents to lax or skip.
Besides you need to set mixed='true' in order to allow character content
model in <AnyNamespaceTest>.
So to validate your sample xml, the schems should look like:
<element name="AnyNamespaceTest">
<complexType mixed='true'>
<sequence>
<any processContents='lax'/>
</sequence>
</complexType>
</element>
</schema>

using for schema validation with xerces 1.6
Posted by Lindsey McNerney <li...@yahoo.com>.
I'm trying to validate an XML instance document using
the <any> element as specified in the W3C Schema
Primer with v1.6 of the Xerces parser. I defined an
element with the <any> tag in the schema and then in
the XML instance document gave the element child
elements. The parser complained that these child
elements had not been declared. I thought the <any>
element allowed you to use other elements without
having to explicitly defined them in the schemas. Is
this functionality supported by this version of the
parser and the syntax I'm using incorrect. I've
included an excerpt from my schema and sample XML
below:
schema:
<element name="AnyNamespaceTest">
<complexType>
<sequence>
<any/>
</sequence>
</complexType>
</element>
XML:
<AnyNamespaceTest>
<test>data</test>asdasd
</AnyNamespaceTest>

Re: Next release?
Posted by Tinny Ng <tn...@ca.ibm.com>.
I guess this is based on users' request and amount of development work
achieved or number of major bug fixes made.
Regarding the schema development, it is still on track. Many more
features such as union/list, float/double datatype, group/all,
any/anyAttribute, xsi:type .... are now implemented in the latest CVS
code base already.
Outstanding schema features are:
1. Data/Time/Month Datatype
2. Identity Constraints (key/keyref/unique)
3. Annotation
4. Particle Derivation Constraints Checking
5. .... Plus more extensive testing ....
They should be completed by Dec as targeted.
So do we want an official release Xerces-C 1.6 by Dec where full schema
support is available?
Or release Xerces-C 1.6 in Oct which has partial schema support (and not
extensively tested) in Oct, and then another Xerces-C 1.7 with full
schema support in Dec?
FYI
Xerces-C 1.3 was released on Sept 2000;
Xerces-C 1.4 was released on Jan 2001;
Xerces-C 1.5 was released on June 2001, and bug-fix release Xerces-C
1.5.1 was released on July 2001
The trend used to be 4~5 months apart .......
