6
+
7
+ [none]
8
+
9
+
10
+ * Changes from SAX 2.0.2 prerelease 1 to prerelease2 (SAX2r3-pre2)
11
+
12
+ - remove JavaDoc for an exception that isn't thrown in Namespace
13
+ support
14
+
15
+ - fix some mismatched @param tags
16
+
17
+ - fix a broken JavaDoc link
18
+
19
+ - reformat some JavaDoc
20
+
21
+
22
+ * Changes from SAX 2.0.1 (SAX2r2) to SAX 2.0.2 (SAX2r3) prerelease 1
23
+
24
+ - removed the docs/ directory, which had fallen out of sync; the
25
+ changes are now in this file, and information on features and
26
+ properties is in src/org/xml/sax/package.html
27
+
28
+ - DeclHandler.externalEntityDecl now requires the parser to return the
29
+ absolute system identifier, for consistency with
30
+ DTDHandler.unparsedEntityDecl: this may cause some incompatibilities
31
+
32
+ - the use-entity-resolver2 core feature is now read-write with a
33
+ default value of true
34
+
35
+ - src/org/xml/sax/package.html now clarifies read/write status of
36
+ properties and features
37
+
38
+ - the xmlns-uris feature uses "xmlns" for the local part of the
39
+ attribute declaring a default Namespace
40
+
41
+ - add a read-only feature to check for XML 1.1 support
42
+
43
+ - add a read-only string property to return the version number of the
44
+ document being parsed
45
+
46
+ - add a feature to request Unicode normalization checking (false by
47
+ default)
48
+
49
+ - specify that error() should be used to report normalization problems
50
+
51
+ - explicitly note that endDocument() might not be called after a fatal
52
+ error
53
+
54
+ - allow getEncoding() and getXMLVersion() to return null if
55
+ information is not available.
56
+
57
+
58
+ * Changes from SAX 2.0 to SAX 2.0 r2 prerelease
59
+
60
+ - Added simple test program src/SAXTest.java
61
+
62
+ - Synchronized static methods in XMLReaderFactory for thread
63
+ safety.
64
+
65
+ - Fixed bug in ParserAdapter that reported an incorrect error when
66
+ an attribute using a Namespace prefix appeared before the Namespace
67
+ declaration.
68
+
69
+ - Fixed bugs in AttributesImpl that caused infinite loops or
70
+ prevented removing attributes.
71
+
72
+ - Specified that InputSource.getSystemId should return null (not an
73
+ empty string) when no system ID is available.
74
+
75
+ - Modified DefaultHandler.resolveEntity to throw IOException, as in
76
+ the interface specification.
77
+
78
+ - Added default constructors to SAXException,
79
+ SAXNotRecognizedException, and SAXNotSupportedException.
80
+
81
+
82
+ * Changes from SAX 2.0prerelease to SAX 2.0
83
+
84
+ - Documented the fact that parse() and event handlers are
85
+ synchronous.
86
+
87
+ - Documented the fact that xml: prefix never has
88
+ start/endPrefixMapping events.
89
+
90
+
91
+ * Changes from SAX 2.0beta2 to SAX 2.0prerelease
92
+
93
+ - If the org.xml.sax.driver property is not specified but the SAX
94
+ org.xml.sax.parser property is specified,
95
+ XMLReaderFactory.createXMLReader() will attempt to create an XML1
96
+ Parser and then wrap it in a ParserAdapter.
97
+
98
+ - DefaultHandler now throws a SAXException for its notationDecl and
99
+ unparsedEntityDecl methods, so that they can be subclassed properly.
100
+
101
+ - Bug fixed in AttributesImpl; last attribute can now be removed.
102
+
103
+ - Added setAttributes method AttributesImpl to simplify reusing an
104
+ object.
105
+
106
+ - SAXParseException now allows a null locator argument in its
107
+ constructors.
108
+
109
+ - Specified that the ContentHandler skippedEntity method will have an
110
+ entity name of "[dtd]" for the external DTD subset.
111
+
112
+ - Specified that the ContentHandler processingInstruction method will
113
+ exclude whitespace between the target and data.
114
+
115
+ - In NamespaceSupport, setting the "" prefix to "" removes any default
116
+ mapping, and changed getPrefix, getPrefixes so that they will not
117
+ return the default prefix.
118
+
119
+ - In Attributes, renamed getRawName to getQName. Likewise, in
120
+ AttributesImpl, renamed setRawName to setQName.
121
+
122
+ - Removed the org.xml.sax.ext package into a separate distribution,
123
+ SAX2-ext. The DeclHandler and LexicalHandler classes are no longer
124
+ part of the core SAX2 distribution.
125
+
126
+ - Added docs/quick-start.html
127
+
128
+ - Modified XMLReaderAdapter, ParserAdapter, and XMLFilterImpl so that
129
+ parse(String) actually invokes parse(InputSource): this way, only
130
+ parse(InputSource) needs to be overridden in subclasses.
131
+
132
+ - Added getPrefix(String) and getPrefixes(String) methods to
133
+ NamespaceSupport to look up currently-mapped prefixes.
134
+
135
+
136
+ * Changes from SAX 2.0beta to SAX 2.0beta2
137
+
138
+ - Corrected "raw-names" to "namespace-prefixes" throughout.
139
+
140
+ - Removed a JDK 1.2 dependency in
141
+ org.xml.sax.helpers.NamespaceSupport.
142
+
143
+ - Fixed org.xml.sax.helpers.ParserAdapter so that the object can be
144
+ reused after a previous parse has thrown an exception.
145
+
146
+ - Added org.xml.sax.helpers.XMLReaderFactory.
147
+
148
+ - Documented limitations of start/endEntity in
149
+ org.xml.sax.ext.LexicalHandler, and added documentation that
150
+ LexicalHandler applies to the whole document and that all events
151
+ must appear between start/endDocument (including start/endDTD).
152
+
153
+ - org.xml.sax.helpers.ParserAdapter and
154
+ org.xml.sax.helpers.XMLReaderAdapter now have a default constructors
155
+ that use the "org.xml.sax.parser" and "org.xml.sax.driver"
156
+ properties to locate the embedded SAX1 and SAX2 drivers
157
+ respectively.
158
+
159
+
160
+ * Changes from SAX 1.0 to SAX 2.0beta
161
+
162
+ ** API Changes
163
+
164
+ The following interfaces and classes have been deprecated, and will
165
+ be removed from a future version of SAX; they should be used only for
166
+ interaction with SAX1 drivers or applications:
167
+
168
+ - org.xml.sax.Parser
169
+
170
+ - org.xml.sax.DocumentHandler
171
+
172
+ - org.xml.sax.AttributeList
173
+
174
+ - org.xml.sax.HandlerBase
175
+
176
+ - org.xml.sax.helpers.ParserFactory
177
+
178
+ - org.xml.sax.helpers.AttributeListImpl
179
+
180
+
181
+ The following interfaces and classes have been added to SAX2:
182
+
183
+
184
+ - org.xml.sax.XMLReader (replaces Parser)
185
+
186
+ - org.xml.sax.XMLFilter
187
+
188
+ - org.xml.sax.ContentHandler (replaces DocumentHandler)
189
+
190
+ - org.xml.sax.Attributes (replaces AttributeList)
191
+
192
+ - org.xml.sax.SAXNotSupportedException
193
+
194
+ - org.xml.sax.SAXNotRecognizedException
195
+
196
+ - org.xml.sax.helpers.AttributesImpl (replaces AttributeListImpl)
197
+
198
+ - org.xml.sax.helpers.NamespaceSupport
199
+
200
+ - org.xml.sax.helpers.XMLFilterImpl
201
+
202
+ - org.xml.sax.helpers.ParserAdapter
203
+
204
+ - org.xml.sax.helpers.XMLReaderAdapter
205
+
206
+ - org.xml.sax.helpers.DefaultHandler (replaces HandlerBase)
207
+
208
+ - org.xml.sax.ext.LexicalHandler (since removed)
209
+
210
+ - org.xml.sax.ext.DeclHandler (since removed)
211
+
212
+ SAX2 contains complete Namespace support, which is available by
213
+ default from any XMLReader. An XML reader can also optionally supply
214
+ raw XML qnames. See SAX2: Namespaces for more details.
215
+
216
+ An XML reader is fully configurable: it is possible to attempt to
217
+ query or change the current value of any feature or property.
218
+ Features and properties are identified by fully-qualified URIs, and
219
+ parties are free to invent their own names for new extensions. See
220
+ SAX2: Features and Properties for more details.
221
+
222
+ The ContentHandler and Attributes interfaces are similar to the
223
+ deprecated DocumentHandler and AttributeList interfaces, but they add
224
+ support for Namespace-related information. ContentHandler also adds a
225
+ callback for skipped entities, and Attributes adds the ability to look
226
+ up an attribute's index by name.
227
+
228
+ The ParserAdapter class makes a SAX1 Parser behave as a SAX2
229
+ XMLReader. The XMLReaderAdapter class makes a SAX2 XML reader behave
230
+ as a SAX1 parser. These two classes should ease the transition from
231
+ SAX1 to SAX2 by allowing SAX1 drivers and clients to co-exist with
232
+ SAX2 drivers and clients in the same application.
233
+
234
+ ** Bug Fixes
235
+
236
+ SAXException:
237
+ Overrode java.lang.Object.toString so that an embedded exception
238
+ will give a proper String representation for debugging.
239
+
240
+ ParserFactory:
241
+ Added missing closing comment so that private constructor is not
242
+ commented out.
