[jdom-interest] JDOM 1.1 Release Candidate

[Paul Libbrecht]

Hello,


I wanted to know if a possibility of bringing to protected the  
following methods of XMLOutputter.

   void printNamespace(Writer,Namespace,NamespaceStack)
   void printElementNamespace(Writer, Element,NamespaceStack)

This way, it owuld be possible to make "DTDAwareXMLOutputter", using  
Mark Wutka's DTD-parser, which is an essential ingredient of any  
refactoring method for XML-editors that edit languages with many  
namespaces.
(I sent a version with no subclass, I am happy to provide in contribs  
one as a subclass).

Currently, I had to patch directly the XMLOutputter which is no good  
style and the relaxation of making protected these two methods could  
lead me to a separate subclass.

With jdom-1.1 and this change ported up... everything runs fine in  
ActiveMath after recompilation (running jdk1.5 on Linux).

Before, however, I had the following:

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.jdom.Element.setAttributes(Ljava/ 
util/List;)Lorg/jdom/Element;
         at  
org.activemath.exercises.InteractionManager.decorateElement 
(InteractionManager.java:1303)
         at  
org.activemath.exercises.InteractionManager.decorateElement 
(InteractionManager.java:1264)

... and indeed setAttributes was for List in JDOM 1.0...
I would suggest you keep both methods.

thanks in advance

paul

> Here's the list of additions and changes, from the CHANGES.txt file:
>
> Added an additional constructor to JDOMSource with an  
> EntityResolver which is passed to the internal DocumentReader  
> allowing the SAXOutputter to properly resolve DTDs.
>
> Added a forceNamespaceAware property to DOMOutputter which  
> specifies you want a DOM constructed with namespaces even if the  
> source JDOM document has no namespaces.
>
> Added support for attribute "INF" and "-INF" values, to indicate  
> positive and negative infinity, as XML Schema allows.
>
> Moved isXMLWhitespace() method from private in XMLOutputter to  
> public in
> Verifier.
>
> Clarified XMLOutputter behavior with newlines and indents:
>   setIndent(" ") means newlines and " " indents
>   setIndent("") means newlines and "" indents
>   setIndent(null) means no newlines and no indents
>
> Added set/getIgnoringBoundaryWhitespace() methods and features to  
> SAXBuilder and SAXHandler.
>
> Added a string constant for the JDOM_OBJECT_MODEL_URI used by JAXP  
> 1.3.  It deserves being part of the public API.
>
> Fixed bug in SAXOutputter where default namespaces would be  
> declared as
> xmlns:="" with a spurious colon.
>
> Fixed bug when using attributes without a namespace and outputting  
> to a
> JDOMResult.
>
> Removing check that a comment not start with a hyphen. A careful  
> reading of production 15 in the XML 1.0 spec indicates leading  
> hyphens are in fact allowed.
>
> Fixed bug where outputFragment() on SAXOutputter could cause a
> NullPointerException because the locator would be null during the  
> call.
>
> Fixed bug where serializing ElementFilter causes a  
> NullPointerException if the filter has no assigned namespace
>
> Fixed some subtle bad behaviors in listIterator.add() logic, using  
> brand new iterator logic.
>
> Allowed a String to be passed to ContentList.add(int, Object).
>
> Simplified JDOMAbout and renamed info.xml to jdom-info.xml, so
> getResourceAsStream() won't suffer any name collision.
>
> Fixed tiny issue where CDATA could be set with illegal character  
> content.
>
> Added logic to escape some special characters in namespace URIs.
>
> Fixed bug where the attribute type would change on a setAttribute()  
> call.
>
> Improved performance on Namespace handling.
>
> Improved and clarified Javadocs.
