Re: Remaining work for JAXP 1.3 APIs

Hi Michael,

Too bad all these fixes didn't make it into the JAXP APIs that were 
recently added to the main trunk.  But definitely +1 to updating the trunk 
appropriately.

Cheers,
Neil

Remaining work for JAXP 1.3 APIs






Hi everyone,

A recently opened Bugzilla report [1] cites a fix for File to URI 
conversion which was applied to the tck-jaxp-1_2_0 branch back in 2002 [2] 

but wasn't merged back into the main branch (now containing JAXP 1.3). It 
seems that few (if any) of the fixes and other improvements we've applied 
over the years to the tck-jaxp-1_2_0 branch were ever merged back into the 

main branch. With Xerces and Xalan releases coming up very soon, I'd like 
to start folding the tck-jaxp-1_2_0 fixes into the main branch. There are 
also a couple compile and runtime dependencies on JDK 1.4 I'd like us to 
clear up. If folks agree, I'm interested in getting started this week.

Thanks.
