I've adopted the xerces-c package and updated the version to
2.8.0-1.
xerces-c is a validating XML parser written in a portable
subset of C++
(it is also known as Xerces-C++). xerces-c makes it easy to
give your
application the ability to read and write XML data. A shared
library is
provided for parsing, generating, manipulating, and
validating XML
documents.
Changes since 2.5.0-1
======================
* new maintainer
* switched to cygport build framework
* renamed xerces-c-devel --> libxerces-c-devel
* new xerces-c-test package provides test and utility
programs
* updated to latest upstream release
The changes in the various official release since the last
cygwin
release are summarized below.
xerces-c 2.8.0 (August 31, 2007)
================================
* Exponential growth of memory block (from 16KB to 128KB)
that
are allocated by the DOM heap.
* The NODE_CLONED notification is now sent to each node's
user
data handler when cloning the entire DOMDocument.
* On Windows extract the registry code page from
MIMEDatabaseCharset<encoding> InternetEncoding instead
of MIMEDatabaseCharset<encoding>Codepage.
* Allow whitespace-only nodes to be added as children of a
DOMDocument.
* When a node is cloned or imported the type information
(PSVI)
is also copied.
* When using SAX2, including XMLReaderFactory to use
createXMLReader
doesn't include xercesc/parsers/SAX2XMLReaderImpl.hpp
anymore. If
you need to cast the SAX2XMLReader to SAX2XMLReaderImpl,
you need
to include this header yourself.
xerces-c 2.7.0 (September 01, 2005)
===================================
* Feature to not generate XML Schema annotations. That is,
not
to add them to the grammar. If you don't need annotations
you
may want to turn on this feature to avoid memory bloat
for
XML Schemas that use annotations heavily.
* Option to skip regenerating the XML Schema annotations
when
deserializing a grammar. If you don't need annotations
you
may want to turn on this option to avoid memory bloat
for
XML Schemas that use annotations heavily.
* Feature to not perform default entity resolution. When
the
entityResolver returns NULL, the parser does not try to
resolve the entity externally.
* Feature to do schema-only validation even if there is a
DTD.
xerces-c 2.6.0 (October 02, 2004)
=================================
* Reduce footprint of DLL by building the deprecated DOM as
a
separate library
* Various enhancements to the schema component model API
* Improve support for schema annotations, including an
option
to laxly validate their contents
* Bring parser up to the XML 1.0 3rd Edition
* Update to the XML 1.1 recommendation
* Update Schema Errata
* Feature for disabling schema identity constraints
* Upgrade to ICU3.0
* Enable the parser to handle elements with a very large
number of attributes
