| SAXONICA |
When you run Saxon on the .NET platform, there are two XML parsers available: the System.Xml parser
supplied with the .NET platform, and the JAXP parser that comes with the GNU Classpath library, which is supplied
as part of the Saxon product.
Saxon generally uses the Microsoft System.Xml parser by preference. However, if you invoke the product
using Java interfaces, for example by supplying a JAXP SAXSource as input, then the GNU Classpath
parser will be used.
Note that the Microsoft parser does not notify ID or IDREF values from the DTD, or expand attributes with
fixed or default values, unless DTD validation is requested. This can be requested using the -v option on the
command line, or via the API. (See the DtdValidation property of the DocumentBuilder
class)
At present, unparsed entities are being ignored. The XSLT functions unparsed-entity-system-id()
and unparsed-entity-public-id() are therefore not working.
