parsing and analysing schemas in 2.0.1
Hey folks, I have tried a lot, searched a lot, and I am not able to figure
out how to do this. Would
really appreciate it if you guys could help me on this.
I need to load an XSD and go through its contents for my project. I am also
restricted to version 2.0.1 of xerces. Any help on this would be really
appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
Amit

Hi Bob,
Applications are already able to set an upper bound on maxOccurs. All you
have to do is register a SecurityManager [1][2] on an instance of the
parser and call setMaxOccurNodeLimit(int) on the SecurityManager
with the desired limit.

maxOccurs="99999"
Posted by Bob Foster <bo...@objfac.com>.
Just a comment. Xerces' handling of large maxOccurs values seems pretty
broken. When I debugged into it, I discovered that the outofmemory
exceptions were caused by Xerces trying to allocate, IIRC, a table with
dimensions 199999*199999.
Yes, you can always tell the user to use "unbounded", but Xerces should
not fail with an utterly predictable OutOfMemoryException (which, by the
way, can fail silently if it happens in a background thread in some
environments) for this case.
It would be far better to pick a smaller upper bound by default and
require an option to be set to go over it. This would allow you to
produce an error message like "maxOccurs too large; use 'unbounded'
instead" that the user could understand.

I'm glad that there is at least ONE person as confussed and frustrated
as I am!! :)) Sorry I cannot help. It all seems such a lot of effort,
just to read a flat file doesn't it??
Kind regards
