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 MIME\Database\Charset\\@InternetEncoding instead of MIME\Database\Charset\\@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 -- Chuck To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on the http://cygwin.com/ web page.
