inclusion of files using relative location references doesn't work

           Summary: inclusion of files using relative location references
                    doesn't work
           Product: Xerces2-J
           Version: 2.0.0 [beta 2]
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Major
          Priority: Other
         Component: XML Schema Structures
        AssignedTo: xerces-j-dev@xml.apache.org
        ReportedBy: mfeblowitz@frictionless.com


[Beta 3, really]

My file arrangement is as follows:

   /instance.xml
   /Files/A.xsd
   /Files/B.xsd
   /Files/C.xsd
   /Files/D.xsd
   /Files/Misc/E.xsd 
  
My include structure looks like this:

  /instance.xml references /Files/A.xsd, which includes
       B.xsd
       C.xsd
       D.xsd

I use the command line interface in "/" to process /instance.xml; it 
finds /Files/A.xsd but not the others.
 
The other files are in same directory as A.xsd, so there should be no 
need to provide a full path name.

File B.xsd includes Misc/E.xsd, again a relative reference.

This works correctly in XML Spy and XSV, but not Xerces. 

It's important that I not be required to specify a full path from root, since 
the location may change and I cannot go in and edit each file to correct its 
absolute reference.

Is this something that is related to using java and the PC command line 
interface, or is it a general problem? Will it be fixed any time soon?
