| SAXONICA |
Saxon is now explicitly supported on both .NET 1.1 and .NET 2.0 (previous releases were not validated on .NET 2.0, though experience showed that they ran without problems).
It is now possible to run queries and transformations directly on a DOM Document
without first converting it to a Saxon tree. Instead of the Build method in the DocumentBuilder,
use the new Wrap method. This creates a lightweight wrapper around the DOM document which makes
it behave like the Saxon NodeInfo model. The code is very similar to the DOM wrapper used on the Java
platform.
The XdmValue class is a wrapper for a Saxon ValueRepresentation. For applications
that need more intimate access to the underlying Saxon objects, XdmValue now has Wrap
and Unwrap methods that expose the underlying Java object.
The SchemaManager and SchemaValidator both now allow an ErrorList
to be supplied, to capture error conditions encountered during schema compilation and instance
document validation respectively.
