Release 9.0.2.0.0A

June 16, 2001

This is the first beta release of 9.0.2 It fixes the following bugs.

New Features

New API's in Parser

The XML Parser has been updated to DOM 2.0 Recommendation. This results in following API's changes in the Parser:

Function Node.supports(String, String) has been changed to Node.isSupported(String, String) The function supports is implemented by XMLNode
New function Node.hasAttributes has been added
New Function MutationEvent.getAttrChange has been added
Function MutationEvent.initMutationEvent now takes an extra parameter short attrChangeArg
The package org.w3c.dom.range has been renamed to org.w3c.dom.ranges

New API's in XSLProcessor

Functions newXSLStylesheet to create XSLStylesheet has been added
Function setBaseURL has been added to resolve relative URLs while building XSLStylesheet.
Function setParam/removeParam/resetParam have been added to XSLProcessor. Parameters set using these APIs will be used only that instance of XSLProcessor. setParam/removeParam/resetParam functions in XSLStylesheet have been deprecated.

Compression Feature

This release supports binary compression of XML documents. The compression is based on tokenizing the XML tag's. The assumption is that any XML document has repeated number of tags and so tokenizing these tags will give considerable amount of compression. Therefore the compression achieved depends on the type of input document - larger the tags, lesser the text content, better the compression!
The goal of compression is to reduce the size of the XML document without loosing the structural and hierarchical information of the DOM tree. The compressed stream contains all the "useful" information to create the DOM tree back from the binary format. The compressed stream can also be generated from the SAX events. The binary stream generated from DOM and SAX are compatible the compressed stream generated from SAX could be used to generate the DOM tree and vice versa.
Sample programs to illustrate the compression feature is included in demos.

ora:output is used in a template, it can have only two attribute 'use' and 'href'. 'use' attribute specifies the

Note that there are several changes between April99 XSLT draft and the August99 XSLT/Xpath draft and these changes have been implemented in the XSL Processor. The XSL Processor has been modified to accept XPath syntax for expressions and patterns. Stylesheets might have to be modified to be conformant to the August XSLT/XPath draft before they can be used with this release.

Some of the changes between April draft and the August draft are:
Expressions in the stylesheet must match the XPath production Expr.
Some of the attribute names and element names in XSL namespace have changed.
Some new functions have been added to XPath CORE function library.

Please refer to the August XSLT/XPath draft for more details.

This is the first production release for v2.

The Oracle XML v2 parser is an early beta release and is written in Java. It features an improved
architecture over the Oracle XML V1 parser and has shown better performance on small to large XML
documents. It will also be able to format the XML document according to a stylesheet, having integrated an XSLT processor.

NOTE: Several of the package names and error messages are different than in the v1 of the parser. See v2changes.txt and the .diff difference files in the sample directory.

Version 2 of the XML Parser for Java, besides incorporating an XSLT processor, has been re-architected
from version 1. This has resulted in a number of changes to the class names especially those that support
Namespaces.
