| <h3>Release notes for Xalan-Java 2.7.2</h3> |
| <p> |
| Xalan-Java 2.7.2 was released in April 2014. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p align="right" size="2"> |
| <a href="#content">(top)</a> |
| </p> |
| <h4>Fix for CVE-2014-0107 insufficient secure processing</h4> |
| <p> |
| When using FEATURE_SECURE_PROCESSING ("http://javax.xml.XMLConstants/feature/secure-processing") on a TransformerFactory, the output properties: |
| </p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>{http://xml.apache.org/xalan}content-handler</li> |
| <li>{http://xml.apache.org/xalan}entities</li> |
| <li>{http://xml.apache.org/xslt}content-handler</li> |
| <li>{http://xml.apache.org/xslt}entities</li> |
| </ul> |
| <p> |
| should be ignored (see http://xml.apache.org/xalan-j/usagepatterns.html#outputprops) |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| These properties can be used to load an arbitrary class or access an arbitrary URL/resource so are problematic when secure processing is desired. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| <code> |
| <xsl:output xalan:content-handler="org.example.BadClass" ... |
| </code> |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| <code> |
| <xsl:output xalan:entities="http://example.org/reallyLargeFile.bin" ... |
| </code> |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| These features could be used to load a class that had undesirable side-effects or to load a large file and exhaust memory, etc. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| See <a href="#https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XALANJ-2435">XALANJ-2435</a>. |

| <h3>Release notes for Xalan-Java 2.7.1</h3> |
| <p>Xalan-Java 2.7.1 was released in August 2007. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| The serializer now has support for DOM Level 3 serialization |
| (<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-DOM-Level-3-LS-20040407/load-save.html#LS-LSSerializer">LSSerializer</a>) |
| for an XML parser. These changes are seen in the new class |
| <a href="apidocs/org/apache/xml/serializer/DOM3Serializer.html"> |
| <code>org.apache.xml.serializer.DOM3Serializer</code> |
| </a> |
| and the new package |
| <code>org.apache.xml.serializer.dom3</code> |
| as well as a new method, |
| <code>asDOM3Serializer()</code> on the older |
| <a href="apidocs/org/apache/xml/serializer/Serializer.html"> |
| <code>org.apache.xml.serializer.Serializer</code> |
| </a> interface. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| More details are in the javadoc of those classes and interfaces. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| The distributions contain upgraded versions of <code>xercesImpl.jar</code> |
| (Xerces-J 2.9.0) and <code>xml-apis.jar</code> (XML Commons External 1.3.04). |
| The distributions were tested with these versions of Xerces-J |
| and XML Commons External and are the recommended versions to use with |
| the release. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| <b>Important:</b> You may experience unpredictable anomalies |
| if your Xalan-Java and Xerces-Java builds are not in synch. |
| </p> |
| |
| |
| <p> |
| Xalan-Java 2.7.1 contains the following functional enhancements, |

| <h3>Release notes for Xalan-Java 2.7.0</h3> |
| <p>Xalan-Java 2.7.0 was released on August 8, 2005. |
| </p> |
| <p>Xalan-Java 2.7.0 contains the following functional enhancements, performance enhancements and |
| bug fixes since 2.6.0. |
| </p> |
| |
| <h5>Support for JAXP 1.3</h5> |
| <p>Support for JAXP 1.3 has been introduced in this release of Xalan-Java. JAXP 1.3 |
| includes a new javax.xml.xpath package, which provides an object-model neutral |
| API for the evaluation of XPath expressions and access to the evaluation environment. |
| Please refer to <a href="xpath_apis.html">Using the JAXP 1.3 XPath API</a> for details on how to |
| use the new XPath API. You can also look at the code in the samples |
| <a href="samples.html#applyxpathjaxp">ApplyXPathJAXP</a> , |
| <a href="samples.html#xpathresolver">XPathResolver</a> and |
| <a href="samples.html#extensionresolver">ExtensionFunctionResolver</a>.</p> |
| |
| <p>There are also a few new transformer features |
| in JAXP 1.3, as described in the following list:<br /> |
| <br /> |
| <li>A new method |
| <a href="apidocs/javax/xml/transform/TransformerFactory.html#setFeature(java.lang.String, boolean)"> |
| TransformerFactory.setFeature(String name, boolean value)</a> |
| </li> |
| <li>A new method <a href="apidocs/javax/xml/transform/Transformer.html#reset()"> |
| Transformer.reset()</a> |
| </li> |
| <li>A new nextSibling attribute is introduced for |
| <a href="apidocs/javax/xml/transform/dom/DOMResult.html">DOMResult</a>, accessible |
| by the constructors, getter and setter methods.</li> |
| <li>Support for the <a href="features.html#secureprocessing">secure processing feature</a> |
| </li> |
| </p> |
| |
| <h5>New default error handling behavior</h5> |
| The behavior of the default <a href="apidocs/javax/xml/transform/ErrorListener.html">ErrorListener</a> |
| was changed in this release of Xalan-Java, |
| in order to conform with a clarification of the required behavior described by JAXP 1.3. |
| If an application does not register its own ErrorListener, the default ErrorListener is |
| used which reports all warnings and errors to System.err and does not throw any Exceptions. Applications |
| are strongly encouraged to register and use ErrorListeners that insure proper behavior for warnings and errors. |
| The default ErrorListener of the old Xalan-Java Interpretive processor throws exceptions on errors and fatal errors. If your |
| code expects exceptions to be thrown on errors and fatal errors, you have to set a customized ErrorListener on |
| TransformerFactory and/or Transformer. You can use |
| <a href="apidocs/org/apache/xml/utils/DefaultErrorHandler.html">org.apache.xml.utils.DefaultErrorHandler</a> |
| as a sample ErrorListener implementation. |
| |
| <h5>Support for XML 1.1</h5> |
| <p>This release of Xalan-Java adds support for Namespaces in XML 1.1 and XML 1.1 output documents. |
| The processors: <br /> |
| <br /> |
| <li> support C0 control characters </li> |
| <li> handle C1 control characters in a way that is consistent with the requirements of XML 1.1 </li> |
| <li> treat NEL (U+0085) and LSEP (U+2028) as end-of-line markers </li> |
| <li> support <a href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3987.txt">Internationalized Resource Identifiers (IRIs)</a> </li> |
| <li> support the additional characters in NCNames and QNames permitted by XML 1.1 and Namespaces in XML 1.1 </li> |
| </p> |
| |
| <p>The processors do not undeclare namespaces other than the default namespace in serialized documents Also, Full |
| normalization is not supported.</p> |
| <p>An input document can be either XML 1.0 or XML 1.1. Also, a stylesheet document can be either XML 1.0 or XML 1.1. |
| A stylesheet document must conform to the XSLT 1.0 specifications.</p> |
| <p>Note that it is possible for a stylesheet module that is an XML 1.1 document to use constructs that cannot be |
| serialized as part of a valid XML 1.0 document, and for a stylesheet module that is an XML 1.0 document to use |
| constructs that cannot be serialized as part of a valid XML 1.1 document. For example, a stylesheet module that |
| is an XML 1.1 document might contain a literal result element whose name contains characters that are not permitted |
| as part of a QName in a document that conforms to Namespaces for XML 1.0. The user needs to ensure that the nodes |
| created by the stylesheet can be serialized as part of a well-formed document of the required version of XML.</p> |
| |
| <h5>Support for Alternative BSF Implementations</h5> |
| <p>Extensions written in Java are directly supported by Xalan-Java. For extensions written in languages other than |
| Java, Xalan-Java uses the Bean Scripting Framework (BSF), an architecture for incorporating scripting into Java |
| applications and applets, and an implementation of BSF must be available on the classpath. In previous |
| releases, IBM's BSF implementation (<code>bsf.jar</code> from 2001) has been included in the Xalan-Java distribution. |
| Some time ago IBM donated their BSF implementation to the <a href="http://jakarta.apache.org/bsf/index.html"> |
| Apache Jakarta BSF</a> project. As of this release, |
| the IBM <code>bsf.jar</code> is no longer included in the Xalan-Java distribution. To use extensions written in |
| languages other than Java, please download a version of Jakarta BSF and put it on your classpath. To use |
| a different BSF implementation, please refer to <a href="extensions.html#BSFManager">setting the BSFManager</a>.</p> |
| |
| <h5>New serializer.jar</h5> |
| <p>In this release of Xalan-Java the code related to serialization of output result trees has been pulled out of |
| <code>xalan.jar</code> and moved into a new jar file, named <code>serializer.jar</code>.</p> |
| <p>The code in <code>serializer.jar</code> has been modified to have no build or runtime dependencies on the rest of the |
| code in Xalan-Java, therefore, <code>serializer.jar</code> can be used in a stand-alone fashion through its public APIs. |
| Although the code has been modified to create a stand-alone jar, the serializer public APIs have not changed |
| and the package names and classnames are the same as they were last release.</p> |
| |
| |
| <p>Also the following:</p> |
| |
| <ul> |
| <li>Updates to the SQL extension and SQL samples to support the Apache Derby database.</li> |
| <li>Minor restructuring of the source and binary distributions.</li> |
| <li>Various performance fixes.</li> |
| <li>Various memory leak fixes.</li> |
| <li>Upgrade to Xerces-J (2.7.1) and a new version of xml-commons (xml-commons-external-1.3.02).</li> |

| <h3>Release notes for Xalan-Java 2.6.0</h3> |
| <p>Xalan-Java 2.6.0 was released on February 29, 2004 (a leap year!). |
| </p> |
| <p>Xalan-Java 2.6.0 contains the following functional enhancements, performance enhancements and |
| bug fixes since 2.5.2:</p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>Improvement in translet initialization time.</li> |
| <li>Addition of a translet versioning mechanism. If the translet version |
| detected by the XSLTC runtime is more recent than any supported by the |
| XSLTC runtime, an error will be reported.</li> |
| <li>Changes that allow XSLTC to use other DTM implementations.</li> |
| <li>Release notes for the XML Serializer. The serializer will no longer put a newline after |
| the xml header tag unless indent="yes". See bugzilla |
| <a href="http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=24304">24304</a>.</li> |
| <li>Rename of Xalan Java's xalan:doc-cache-off processing instruction to |
| xalan-doc-cache-off. This change was necessary due to a recent |
| change in Xerces. Xerces has started detecting the Namespace |
| well-formedness rule that a processing instruction's PITarget must not contain |
| a colon. The old-style PI (xalan:doc-cache-off) will be accepted provided that |
| the XML parser does not report it as an error. See bugzilla |
| <a href="http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=26217">26217</a>.</li> |
| <li>Enhancement to XSLTC's URIResolvers and the general mechanism to resolve relative URIs. |
| XSLTC is now compatible with Xalan Intepretive.</li> |
| <li>Addition of a TransformThread sample that demonstrates how to use different transformers |
| on different threads and in different modes.</li> |
| <li>Upgrade to Xerces-J (2.6.2) and a new version of xml-commons (xml-commons-external-1.2.01)</li> |
| <li>Elimination of "enum" as a name to allow compilation under JDK 1.5</li> |

| <h3>Release notes for Xalan-Java 2.5.0</h3> |
| <p>Xalan-Java 2.5.0 was released on April 16,2003. |
| </p> |
| <p>Xalan-Java 2.5.0 contains a variety of features, bug fixes and |
| performance enhancements since 2.5.D1.</p> |
| <p>New features in Xalan-Java 2.5.0 include: |
| <ul> |
| <li>integration of the Document Table Model (DTM) with the XSLTC |
| processor [Henry Zongaro, Morris Kwan] and </li> |
| <li>integration of the Xalan Interpretive and Xalan Compiled |
| serializers into a common serializer [Brian Minchau].</li> |
| </ul> |
| These features have been driven by a need to get common behavior, |
| improve maintainability, reduce duplication of effort for future work, |
| and in some cases improve performance and conformance.</p> |
| <p>Refer to <a href="whatsnew.html">What's New</a> for a description of the new function |
| and <a href="history.html">History of software changes</a> for a list of the various |

| <h3>Release notes for Xalan-Java 2.4.1</h3> |
| <p>Xalan-Java 2.4.1 was released on October 31, 2002 (Halloween!). |
| </p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>Performance fixes and enhancements to address the degradation of performance between Xalan-Java |
| version 2.3.1 and Xalan-Java 2.4.0.</li> |
| <li>A prototype implementation of the <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2002/WD-DOM-Level-3-XPath-20020328/">DOM Level 3 XPath Specification</a>. |
| The implementation is considered 'experimental' at this time due to the status of the specification. |
| See the new sample, <a href="samples.html#applyxpathdom">ApplyXPathDOM</a> for an |
| example of how to use this API.</li> |
| <li>Extension changes and enhancements:</li> |
| <ul> |
| <li>Implement canonical namespaces for all Xalan extensions. All extensions |
| now use namespaces starting with <code>http://xml.apache.org/xalan</code>. The old namespaces are |
| still supported for backward compatibility. See the updated |
| <a href="extensionslib.html#intro">extensions</a> documentation for details.</li> |
| <li>Added new EXSLT extension functions, including the EXSLT dynamic extension functions |
| max, min, sum, map, evaluate and closure, the EXSLT strings extension functions align, |
| concat, padding, split and tokenize, and some new extension functions in the math module.</li> |
| <li>Reorganized the extension functions for new EXSLT extensions. |
| The implementation of some extension functions (intersection, difference, distinct, |
| evaluate and tokenize) are moved from the main Extensions class to the corresponding EXSLT modules.</li> |
| <li>Enable the EXSLT extensions for XSLTC. The EXSLT common, math, sets, dates-and-times and strings |
| modules can be used in XSLTC.</li> |
| <li>Integration of the nodeset and redirect extension for XSLTC. You can now use Xalan namespaces for |
| these extensions in XSLTC.</li> |
| <li>Enhancement in Java extenion for XSLTC. Three namespace formats (Java, package and class) can all |
| be used in XSLTC. More type conversion rules are added as well.</li> |
| </ul> |
| <li>Enable support for invoking transformations using the Xalan compiler (XSLTC) via the |
| Xalan interpretive Process command line. Specifically, the -XSLTC option was added. The |
| -TT, -TG, -TS, -TTC, -QC, -L, -INCREMENTAL, -NOOPTIMIZE and -RL option do not work in XSLTC mode. All |
| other existing options can be used with -XSLTC. Additional options were added to enable XSLTC compile |
| and transform modes: -XO, -XD, -XJ, -XP, -XN, -XX, -XT. See the Process usage statement for more |
| information on these options.</li> |
| <li>Fixed SQL Extension problem where a query that returned zero rows would incorrectly |
| return a JDBC exception.</li> |
| <li>Fixed a limitation for XPath expressions. The token queue and operations map can now grow |
| to accomodate really large XPath expressions.</li> |
| <li>Fixes for the following bugzilla defects: |

| <li>Support for the <a href="http://www.exslt.org/">EXSLT</a> function and result elements, and EXSLT |
| date-and-time functions.</li> |
| <li>Improvements to the extensions mechanism to more efficiently handle the detection and analysis of extensions |

| initialization of the transformation process.</li> |
| <li>Performance improvement. Instead of looping through the ExtendedType objects, use a hashtable and go |
| directly to the correct object.</li> |
| <li>Separation of source and messages. Messages have been moved into property files for easier localization.</li> |
| <li>XSLTC version upgraded from 1.0 to 1.2.</li> |
| <li>Support for and bundling of Xerces Java 2.1.</li> |
| <li>Support for and bundling of <code>xml-apis.jar</code> from the RIVERCOURT1 branch of xml-commons. This version of the Java |

| </p> |
| <h3>Other points of interest</h3> |
| <ul> |
| <li>Xalan Java 2 is integrated with release 2 of Xerces-Java. Xalan-Java Version 2.7.2 does not include support for the deprecated Xalan-Java 1 compatability API. |
| The Xalan-Java 1 compatability code does NOT compile with Xerces-Java 2.<br /> |
| <br /> |
| </li> |
| <li>The <a href="samples.html#sql">SQL extension samples</a> continue to use InstantDB, but based on our realization of changes |
| that have occurred in the licensing of InstantDB, we no longer include InstantDB and the associated sample database with our distibution. |
| We do, however, provide information on how to <a href="samples.html#instantdbsetup">set up InstantDB</a> to support our SQL |
| extension samples.<br /> |
| <br /> |
| </li> |
| <li>Documentation updates: We have subdivided the release notes into multiple files to accelerate HTML document loading, and we have added a |
| document on <a href="features.html">Transform features</a>.<br /> |
| <br /> |
| </li> |
| <li>If an attempt is made to coerce a different namespace onto a prefix already in use in xsl:attribute, the attribute will come out |
| in the wrong namespace. Workaround: either provide an NCName instead of a QName for the attribute, or provide a QName with a prefix not |
| used elsewhere.<br /> |
| <br /> |
| </li> |
| <li>Handling xsl:namespace-alias declarations: In release 2.0.D01, we reported the need to do some research concerning exactly how Xalan |
| should handle xsl:namespace-alias declarations. As a result of discussions among members of the W3C Working Group on XSL, we have reached a |
| more precise consensus on how namespaces should be represented when an xsl:namespace-alias declaration is in effect.<br /> |
| <br /> |
| If a literal result element has a namespace prefix, the prefix will be preserved and the namespace URI of the element will be as |
| specified in the xsl:namespace-alias element, but the result-prefix is not required to appear in the result. This also applies to the |
| two other cases of "Literal namespace URI" mentioned in the XSLT Recommendation on |
| <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt#literal-result-element">Literal Result Elements</a>. More simply, if the stylesheet calls for |
| <axsl:foo> to be output as a literal result element, then it will be output as <axsl:foo> in the result, but the namespace |
| associated with this "axsl" prefix will be as designated in the xsl:namespace-alias declaration.<br /> |
| <br /> |
| </li> |
| <li>For HTML output, Xalan-Java 2 outputs character entity references (&copy; etc.) for the special characters designated in |
| <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/#dtds">Appendix A. DTDs of the XHTML 1.0: The Extensible HyperText Markup |
| Language</a>. Xalan-Java 1.x, on the other hand, outputs literal characters for some of these special characters.<br /> |
| <br /> |
| </li> |
| <li>In conformance with the <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt#section-HTML-Output-Method">XSLT Recommendation on the HTML |
| Output Method</a> and <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/appendix/notes.html#h-B.2.1">Section B.2.1 of the HTML 4.0 |
| Recommendation</a>, Xalan-Java 2 uses %hh encoding for each byte of the UTF-8 representation of non-ASCII characters in HTML URI |
| attributes.<br /> |
| <br /> |
| </li> |
| <li>When your stylesheet asks for an explicit carriage-return character (&#13;) to be inserted into the output, it is output during |
| the serialization process in escaped form unless escaping has been disabled. When your stylesheet asks for an explicit line-feed character |
| (&#10;) to be output, the system-default line-break character(s) is/are output during the serialization process. Also keep in mind that |
| the XML parser normalizes line-breaks to line-feeds when it sends character events to the processor.<br /> |
| <br /> |
| </li> |
| <li>If your XML input is a DOM, use the javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory setCoalescing() method to set coalescing to true (it is |
| false by default), if you want to append CDATA sections to adjacent text sections to form a single text node (as the XPath standard calls |
| for), and if the XML parser supports this feature (Xerces-Java 2.11.0 does not).<br /> |
| <br /> |
| </li> |
| <li>When you traverse the namespace axis for a collection of element nodes, Xalan-Java includes <b>one</b> namespace node for each namespace in scope |
| for one or more of the nodes in that collection. The XPath expression does not return additional (redundant) namespace nodes for each element |
| for which the namespace nodes are in scope.<br /> |
| <br /> |
| </li> |
| <li>See <a href="http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=2291">Bugzilla bug 2291</a> for a discussion of issues surrounding |
| use of the default character encoding to read META-INF/Services.<br /> |
| <br /> |
| </li> |
| <li>As <a href="http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1800">Bugzilla bug 1800</a> reports, the Transformer does not get the |
| setTransformState event until after the startDocument event. This could present a problem for tools developers, and we do intend to fix this |
| bug.</li> |
