Validating XML with attributes in namespace "xml"

Mikael Svenning — 2013-01-04T12:23:35

Hello,
I have a question regarding namespaces for attributes, and how to declare
such attributes in an XML schema.

The reason that I want to use namespaces for an attribute is that I use XML
DSig,
and the signature parts should be specified with an "ID" attribute.

The name of the attribute that specify the identification could have any
name, and some possible choices are "ID", "Id" or "id".

However, there seems to be a recommendation to use "xml:id", rather than
anything else such as "ID".

This is for example described in the following page:
http://www.w3.org/TR/xml-id/

This works fine for DSig signatures.
I am using "xmlsec1" for signing/verification in my C++ application, and I
am able to sign and verify the signature.

In the XML files, the id is specified like this:

<elm:MyElement xml:id="MyName" OtherAttribute="SomeValue">

Note that "xml:id" is an attribute in a namespace, which is rarely used
although legal XML.
However, the XML files should also be validated against a schema with
Xerces, and it

Bad link to source of xml-commons

B.J. Herbison — 2012-12-27T17:52:42

I wanted to look at the source of xml-commons and follow the browse link from http://xerces.apache.org/xml-commons/ to http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/xml/commons/ and received a 404.

What is the correct link to browse the source?

Hello Arjan,

There is a FOP users mailing list [1]. You're more likely to get 
assistance from the FOP community if you asked your question there.

Thanks.

Getting FOP emedded examples to work

Arjan Bokx — 2012-12-31T09:30:41

Hello everybody,

I have a question about getting the "embedded" examples of FOP 1.1 to work.
Is this the right place to ask?
(If not, please redirect me and disregard the following)

I've downloaded and installed fop 1.1
I've downloaded and installed Ant.
With Ant, I compiled the "embedded" examples.
"Ant example1" correctly runs ExampleFO2PDF.
What should I do to call ExampleFO2PDF from Java? Actually I wish to call it from Delphi, using JNI, but first things first.
"Java ExampleFO2PDF" gives:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: ExampleFO2PDF (wrong name: embedding/ExampleFO2PDF)

When I add just about every path to the classpath with the command line option -cp, I get:
Error: Could not find or load main class ExampleFO2PDF.main

Could you help me please.


Regards,
Arjan Bokx

Re: Multi threading and xml

Suppose that there is a sudden power failure. In that case, some of the
memory fragments will fail to write to file. Then again the xml structure
could become inconsistent. How do we deal with this then?

Re: Multi threading and xml

Paul Libbrecht — 2012-10-22T12:19:37

How about using DOM/JDOM/XOM to assemble the fragments to memory then output them (with an outputter thread or after the things are done).

If this is really massive, you could try to output the threads to separate files then merge things?

Multi threading and xml

pa7751 — 2012-10-22T09:21:26

Hi 

I have an xml file that has to be written by multiple threads running in
parallel. How can we ensure that the structural integrity of the xml file
i.e. many threads writing into the file can spoil the structure of the xml.
One way is to make the write method synchronized, but that is a very high
level approach with which only one thread may write at a time. So the other
threads are ready with their data but cannot write until the lock is
released. Is there a better way to do this?

JAXP has been part of the platform since Java SE 1.4. You can rely on it.

Re: How to parse xml

Hi

Actually I did, and so I got more and more confused, with so many options
being talked about. So I want to know if JAXP can be used as such from jdk
1.4 to 1.6 or does that have to be integrated with some 3rd party parser?

Thanks

Hi,

Did you do any research before asking your question? If you search mailing 
list archives or on sites like Stack Overflow [1] you'll find plenty of 
views on various approaches to processing XML and their pros/cons.

Thanks.

How to parse xml

pa7751 — 2012-10-09T12:16:38

Hi 

I have a requirement where i have a valid xml that I need to parse so that
the elements of the xml can be made to behave in some manner. I need to know
two things: 

1. Which parser is best to use DOM, SAX etc.
2. Which parser library can I use. Here please note that my JRE can be 1.4 o
1.6. So my code should be compatible with these versions


Note that my xml may not be very big in size. It can have a maximum of 200
elements maybe

next stable version for FOP?

Danut Clapa — 2012-07-23T13:59:20

Hello,
I seen that the latest version of the FOP is 1.1rc. Taking in consideration that is an release candidate. Do you have any information when will be next stable release after 1.1rc?

Thank you,

Hi Danut,


You don't need to cross post your question to multiple lists. Please 
avoid doing so in future. Thanks.

To answer your question; the plan is to release FOP 1.1 a few weeks 
after 1.1rc1 when we've had sufficient feedback to be sure the release 
is sufficiently stable.

Thanks,

Chris

Thanks.

My suggestion is that the xml.apache.org site is rewritten to be
historical, then moved over to be under the Attic (post the board
resolution to dissolve the TLP -

Once that's done, is it time to move xml.apache.org to the Attic and
close down the PMC?

You've just beaten Jakarta; BSF's moving into Commons which leaves
JMeter as the last, most likely TLP-bound, subproject.

The big news from the XML project is that we finally managed to start
the process of moving XIndice to the Attic. The vote just passed, and
the move will start in the next few days. Once we are done with that,
it will be time for a last call to the various xml-related projects to
see what we should do with the existing xml web properties (DTDs and
other resources), then we will be able to fold the XML project
altogether.

No other issues requiring board attention at this time.

[VOTE][RESULT] Move XIndice to the Attic

Gianugo Rabellino — 2011-08-15T18:41:16

Thanks to the last minute vote from Shane we were able to gather the
missing +1 to move XIndice to the Attic. The vote passes with 3
binding +1 (Gianugo, Gareth and Shane), 3 non-binding +1 (Carol, Mark,
Catherine) and a non-binding +0 (Natalia).

Thanks for the participation. The move will start in the next few days.
