Class XercesParser

java.lang.Object

org.apache.commons.digester.parser.XercesParser

@Deprecated
public class XercesParser
extends Object

Deprecated.

Create an XMLParser instance yourself, configure validation appropriately, and pass it as a parameter to the Digester constructor, or use Digester.setXMLSchema(javax.xml.validation.Schema) for validation.

Create a SAXParser based on the underlying Xerces version. Currently, Xerces 2.3 and up doesn't implement schema validation the same way 2.1 was. In other to support schema validation in a portable way between parser, some features/properties need to be set.

Since:

1.6

Parameters:

properties - parser specific properties/features

Returns:

an XML Schema/DTD enabled SAXParser

Throws:

ParserConfigurationException

SAXException

SAXNotSupportedException

configureOldXerces

Configure schema validation as recommended by the JAXP 1.2 spec. The properties object may contains information about the schema local and language.

Parameters:

properties - parser optional info

Throws:

ParserConfigurationException

SAXNotSupportedException

configureXerces

private static void configureXerces(SAXParserFactory factory)
                             throws ParserConfigurationException,
SAXNotRecognizedException,
SAXNotSupportedException

Deprecated.

Configure schema validation as recommended by the Xerces spec. Both DTD and Schema validation will be enabled simultaneously.

NOTE: This method is broken. It is supposed to set up validation against the schema specified in property "schemaLocation", but it doesn't.

Parameters:

Throws:

ParserConfigurationException

SAXNotRecognizedException

SAXNotSupportedException
