An XML Schema processor with preliminary support for the W3C XML Schema 1.1 Recommendation (in two parts). This artifact was sourced from the xml-schema-1.1-dev branch (r1667115) and built using JDK 7. The org.apache.xerces and org.eclipse.wst packages are relocated to avoid conflicts with other components that depend on the latest public Xerces release (2.11.0).

The newest version!

/**
 * Represents a parser configuration that can be used as the 
 * configuration for a "pull" parser. A pull parser allows the
 * application to drive the parser instead of having document
 * information events "pushed" to the registered handlers.
 * 
 * A pull parser using this type of configuration first calls
 * the setInputSource method. After the input
 * source is set, the pull parser repeatedly calls the
 * parse(boolean):boolean method. This method 
 * returns a value of true if there is more to parse in the
 * document.
 * 
 * Calling the parse(XMLInputSource) is equivalent
 * to setting the input source and calling the 
 * parse(boolean):boolean method with a "complete" 
 * value of true.
