SAXNotRecognizedException on http://xml.org/sax/features/namespace-prefixes

Dear Distinguished Colleagues:

I am having a number of schema validation problems with Xerces, but 
let's discuss them one at a time.

The first problem is this.

I have a constant defined:

protected static final String FEATURE_NAMESPACE_PREFIXES = 
"http://xml.org/sax/features/namespace-prefixes";
	
I then use DOMParser:

  parser.setFeature(FEATURE_NAMESPACE_PREFIXES, true);

and get:

org.xml.sax.SAXNotRecognizedException: 
http://xml.org/sax/features/namespace-prefixes
	at org.apache.xerces.parsers.DOMParser.setFeature(Unknown Source)

(stack track truncated)

Is it a bug in Xerces or am I doing something wrong?

Note that setting the same feature on the SAXParser works fine.

Any thoughts ?

Regards,
Oleg

It's not a bug. The DOM parser doesn't support that feature, nor is it
required to. Only the SAX parser does [1]. Once DOM Level 3 moves into the
standard distribution, you will be able to control this behaviour with the
"namespace-declarations" parameter [2]. Setting it to false isn't
supported yet.
