| <s3 title="New features in &XercesCName; 3.1.0"> |
| <ul> |
| <li>Working multi-import support. The support for handling multiple import |
| declarations with the same target namespaces has been improved and |
| thoroughly tested. Furthermore, the same logic was extended to |
| loadGrammar and the schemaLocation attributes so that you can load |
| several schemas with the same namespace and/or "add" more declarations |
| with the schemaLocation attributes. To enable this feature, set the |
| XMLUni::fgXercesHandleMultipleImports feature/parameter to true. |
| Starting with this release all the tests and examples have multi-import |
| support enabled by default.</li> |
| |
| <li>New property, XMLUni::fgXercesLowWaterMark, allows to configure the |
| parser buffer low water mark. In particular, setting this value to 0 |
| disables data caching in the parser which can be useful if you want |
| the SAX events to be dispatched as soon as the data is available.</li> |
| |
| <li>DOMLSParser::parseWithContext implementation. In particular, this |
| functionality allows one to parse a document fragment with missing |
| namespace declarations as long as the context document provides them.</li> |
| |
| <li>Improved performance and reduced memory footprint when validating with |
| large maxOccurs values. If available, the SSE2 instructions are used to |
| further speedup this case.</li> |
| |
| <li>Improved scalability of the XML Schema identity checking (key, keyref, |
| and unique).</li> |
| |
| <li>Multiple XML Schema conformance fixes.</li> |
| |
| <li>More robust external library detection (libcurl and ICU). In particular, |
| the build system no longer tries to inject any additional paths such as |
| /usr or /usr/local.</li> |
| |
| <li>Compilation of the ICU message loader resources no longer depends on |
| the ICU implementation details.</li> |

| <p>1. The old Java-like DOM is now deprecated, and all the associated files, including the headers |

| Java-like DOM are required to change all their #include lines to pick up the headers. |
| For example</p> |
| <source> |
| //old code |
| #include <xercesc/dom/DOM.hpp> |
| #include <xercesc/dom/DOM_Document.hpp> |
| #include <xercesc/parsers/DOMParser.hpp> |

| DOMParser parser; |
| parser.parse(xmlFile); |
| DOM_Document doc = parser.getDocument(); |

| <p> should now change to </p> |
| <source> |
| //new code |
| #include <xercesc/dom/deprecated/DOM.hpp> //<==== change this include line |
| #include <xercesc/dom/deprecated/DOM_Document.hpp> //<==== change this include line |
| #include <xercesc/dom/deprecated/DOMParser.hpp> //<==== change this include line |

| DOM_Document doc = parser.getDocument(); |
| : |
| return; |
| } |
| </source> |
| <p>2. The Experimental IDOM is now renamed, and becomes the Apache Recommended DOM C++ Binding. |
| The following changes are made: </p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>class names are renamed from IDOM_XXXX to DOMXXXX, e.g. IDOM_Document to DOMDocument</li> |
| <li>and thus header files are renamed from IDOM_XXXX.hpp to DOMXXXX.hpp and are moved |
| to <code>src/xercesc/dom</code></li> |
| <li>the IDOMParser is renamed to XercesDOMParser. And thus the header |
| file is renamed as well</li> |
| <li>the rest is the same, see |
| <jump href="ApacheDOMC++Binding.html">Apache Recommended DOM C++ binding</jump> |
| and <jump href="program-dom-&XercesC3Series;.html">DOM Programming Guide</jump> for more programming |
| information</li> |
| </ul> |
| <p>Users of IDOM are required to change all their #include lines and do a global rename of |
| IDOMParser to XercesDOMParesr, and IDOM_XXXX to DOMXXXX. For example</p> |
| <source> |
| //old code |
| #include <xercesc/idom/IDOM.hpp> |
| #include <xercesc/idom/IDOM_Document.hpp> |
| #include <xercesc/parsers/IDOMParser.hpp> |

| <s3 title="Reuse Grammar becomes Grammar Caching"> |
| <p>The &XercesCName; 2.0.0 extends the "Reuse Grammar" support by replacing it with |
| a new feature called "Grammar Caching" which provides more flexibility in reusing grammars. |
| Users who used to do the following:</p> |
| <source> |
| |
| XercesDOMParser parser; |
| |
| // this is the first parse, just usual code as you do normal parse |
| // "firstXmlFile" has a grammar (schema or DTD) specified. |
| parser.parse(firstXmlFile); |
| |
| // this is the second parse, by setting second parameter to true, |
| // the parser will reuse the grammar in the last parse |
| // (i.e. the one in "firstXmlFile") |
| // to validate the second "anotherXmlFile". Any grammar that is |
| // specified in anotherXmlFile is IGNORED. |
| // |
| // Note: The anotherXmlFile cannot have any DTD internal subset. |
| parser.parse(anotherXmlFile, true); |
| |
| </source> |
| <p>should now use the features cacheGrammarFromParse and useCachedGrammarFromParse:</p> |
| <source> |
| XercesDOMParser parser; |
| |
| // By setting cacheGrammarFromParse to true, |
| // the parser will cache any grammars encountered in the |
| // follow-on xml files, if not cached already |
| parser.cacheGrammarFromParse(true); |
| |
| parser.parse(firstXmlFile); |
| |
| // By setting useCachedGrammarFromParse to true, |
| // the parser will use all the previous cached grammars |
| // to validate the follow-on xml files if the cached |
| // grammar matches the one specified in anotherXmlFile. |
| // |
| // Note: The follow-on xml files cannot have any DTD internal subset. |
| parser.useCachedGrammarFromParse(true); |
| |
| parser.parse(anotherXmlFile); |
| |
| // This will flush the cached grammar pool |
| parser.resetCachedGrammarPool(); |
| </source> |
| |
| <p>Note there are a number of differences between "Reuse Grammar" and "Grammar Caching" </p> |
| <ol> |
| <li>"Reuse Grammar" ignores any grammar that is specified in anotherXmlFile and simply |
| reuse whatever stored in previous parse; while "Grammar Caching" will use the |
| cached grammar only if it matches the one specified in the anotherXmlFile. |
| If not match, then the new grammar is parsed.</li> |
| <li>"Reuse Grammar" can only reuse the grammar from previous parse; while "Grammar Caching" |
| can selectively cache many grammars from different parses and collect them all in a pool indexed |
| by targetNamespace (for Schema) or system id (for DTD).</li> |
| <li>Plus "Grammar Caching" has much more functionalities other than above |
| (like "Pre-parsing Grammar"). Please refer to |
| <jump href="program-others-&XercesC3Series;.html#GrammarCache">Preparsing Grammar and Grammar Caching |
| </jump> for more programming details.</li> |

| <code>setDoValidation()</code> method controls the |
| validation processing.</li> |
| |
| <li>The <code>framework/XMLDocumentTypeHandler.hpp</code> |
| been replaced with |
| <code>validators/DTD/DocTypeHandler.hpp</code>.</li> |
| |
| <li>The following methods now have different set of |
| parameters because the underlying base class methods have |

| <li><code>framework/XMLErrorCodes.hpp </code> - Core XML errors</li> |
| <li><code>framework/XMLValidityCodes.hpp</code> - DTD validity errors</li> |

| |
| <s3 title="The Samples"> |
| |
| <p>The sample programs no longer use any of the unsupported |
| util/xxx classes. They only existed to allow us to write |
| portable samples. But, since we feel that the wide character |
| APIs are supported on a lot of platforms these days, it was |
| decided to go ahead and just write the samples in terms of |
| these. If your system does not support these APIs, you will |
| not be able to build and run the samples. On some platforms, |
| these APIs might perhaps be optional packages or require |
| runtime updates or some such action.</p> |
| |
| <p>More samples have been added as well. These highlight some |
| of the new functionality introduced in the new code base. And |
| the existing ones have been cleaned up as well.</p> |
| |
| <p>The new samples are:</p> |
| <ol> |
| <li>PParse - Demonstrates 'progressive parse' (see below)</li> |
| <li>StdInParse - Demonstrates use of the standard in input source</li> |
| <li>EnumVal - Shows how to enumerate the markup decls in a DTD Validator</li> |
| </ol> |
| </s3> |
| |
| |
| <s3 title="Parser Classes"> |
| |
| <p>In the XML4C 2.x code base, there were the following parser |
| classes (in the src/parsers/ source directory): |
| NonValidatingSAXParser, ValidatingSAXParser, |
| NonValidatingDOMParser, ValidatingDOMParser. The |
| non-validating ones were the base classes and the validating |
| ones just derived from them and turned on the validation. |
| This was deemed a little bit overblown, considering the tiny |
| amount of code required to turn on validation and the fact |
| that it makes people use a pointer to the parser in most cases |
| (if they needed to support either validating or non-validating |
| versions.)</p> |
| |
| <p>The new code base just has SAXParer and DOMParser |
| classes. These are capable of handling both validating and |
| non-validating modes, according to the state of a flag that |
| you can set on them. For instance, here is a code snippet that |
| shows this in action.</p> |
| |
| <source>void ParseThis(const XMLCh* const fileToParse, |
| const bool validate) |
| { |
| // |
| // Create a SAXParser. It can now just be |
| // created by value on the stack if we want |
| // to parse something within this scope. |
| // |
| SAXParser myParser; |
| |
| // Tell it whether to validate or not |
| myParser.setDoValidation(validate); |
| |
| // Parse and catch exceptions... |
| try |
| { |
| myParser.parse(fileToParse); |
| } |
| ... |
| };</source> |
| |
| <p>We feel that this is a simpler architecture, and that it makes things |
| easier for you. In the above example, for instance, the parser will be |
| cleaned up for you automatically upon exit since you don't have to |
| allocate it anymore.</p> |
| |
| </s3> |
| |
| |
| <s3 title="Moved Classes to src/framework"> |
| |
| <p>Some of the classes previously in the src/internal/ |
| directory have been moved to their more correct location in |
| the src/framework/ directory. These are classes used by the |
| outside world and should have been framework classes to begin |
| with. Also, to avoid name classes in the absence of C++ namespace |
| support, some of these clashes have been renamed to make them |
| more XML specific and less likely to clash. More |
| classes might end up being moved to framework as well.</p> |
| |
| <p>So you might have to change a few include statements to |
| find these classes in their new locations. And you might have |
| to rename some of the names of the classes, if you used any of |
| the ones whose names were changed.</p> |
| |
| </s3> |
| |
| <s3 title="Util directory Reorganization"> |
| |
| <p>The src/util directory was becoming somewhat of a dumping |
| ground of platform and compiler stuff. So we reworked that |
| directory to better spread things out. The new scheme is: |

| <p>This organization makes things much easier to understand. |
| And it makes it easier to find which files you need and which |
| are optional. Note that only per-platform files have any hard |
| coded references to specific message loaders or |
| transcoders. So if you don't include the ICU implementations |
| of these services, you don't need to link in ICU or use any |
| ICU headers. The rest of the system works only in terms of the |
| abstraction APIs.</p> |
