dom.ASBuilder [Error]: -1:-1

[Hua Yang <gt...@prism.gatech.edu>]

hi:

Somebody has asked the same question before but seems no answer.

The ASBubilder example with xerces2 doesn't return correct value for line
and column number. Always -1:-1.

It seems that getColumnNumber() and getLineNumber() function can't find the
right value to return.

Any help will be appreciated.

there is an answer. it's just not a good one.

i have raised this issue previously and either sandy or elena provided the
answer:

the problem is that the schema is read into a DOM and the line number and
column number information isnt conserved.

so, the validator looks at the now DOM-ified schema and finds errors. it
reports the errors in the correct way, but the mechanism to resolve the
error back to a line/column number is unimplemented, because the
information was never saved.

it's certainly solvable, but it's not currently on anybody's list of
things to do AFAIK.
