JSR 172 XML parser in WTK 2.5: problems compared to 2.2
Hi,
I'm experiencing 2 problems with the WTK 2.5 JSR 172 XML parser that do not occur with:
-WTK 2.2
-Sony-Ericsson Emulator WTK2
-Sony-Ericsson devices.
They are:
- attributes.getLocalName(i) always returns an empty string
- documents with multiple roots cause a parser panic
Anyone has a hunch?
Thanks a lot,
Philippe

are you sure that "Namespace processing is performed"?

if you use the [url=http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/digester/]Digester[/url], you will see that multiple roots cause org.xml.sax.SAXParseException and it is normal!!!
an XML document MUST NOT have multiple roots!

I tried:
parserFactory.setFeature("http://xml.org/sax/features/namespace-prefixes", true);
-> still the same
Then I tried:
parserFactory.setFeature("http://xml.org/sax/features/namespaces", true);
with this I get an exception when I try to create a parser.

I know. So what you're saying is they fixed a bug...
Still, since devices and the WTK 2.2 doesn't have it, I was hoping there might be a backwards-compatiblity mode.
I am trying to use the XML parser to parse a small HTML subset. If at least the panic Exception reported the position in the stream, maybe I could just start parsing again from there.
The point is, why has ist changed, and will the change move to all implementations.
Thanks,
Philippe
