Re: XmlSchema 2.0 question

[Benson Margulies <bi...@apache.org>]

Daniel,

I decided that maintaining the 'direct to string' code in addition to
the dom serialization code was not a good idea. It had too many ways
of messing up on namespaces. So in 2.0 I removed in and just left DOM
serialization -- which, unfortunately for you, wants to work at the
level of the entire schema.

You could try modifying the serializer to make all the per-type
methods public and then use the L3 DOM to get strings.

I apologize for the inconvenience, but the code, overall, had quite a
lot of not-quite-thought-through things in it, and my approach in 2.0
was to be fairly merciless in chopping them out, since there's very
nearly no one left to work on it.
