[jdom-interest] org.jdom.contrib.ids?

[Alfredo Aldundi]

I've just downloaded jdom-contrib and tried to use the 
org.jdom.contrib.ids contribution. However, with the supplied test 
program TestIds it does not work. I call:
 > java TestIds testIds.xml a
but TestIds reports that this id does not exist (however, it is clearly 
in the testIds.xml file...). By the way, TestIds does not find a single 
id in the document...

I tried to find out the attribute type of the name attribute. I found 
out that the type is 0 (=UNDECLARED_ATTRIBUTE) and not 2 
(=ID_ATTRIBUTE) as it should be. The name attribute is clearly defined 
as type ID in the DTD. So I guess that this is not a problem of 
org.jdom.contrib.ids (correct?). May it be that my XML parser does not 
handle this correctly?

Has somebody experienced the same problems with org.jdom.contrib.ids 
and/or attribute types? Or has someone found the cause for this problem 
(xml parser, bug in org.jdom.contrib.ids, ...)?

Thanks!
