Support #1940
closed
Content "MLSch " (empty space is a tab symbol) appears in the XdmNode object serialized with toString()
0%
Description
- Steps to reproduce
Provided Java project contains test to reproduce the issue
unzip CheckSaxonFileLoad.zip
cd CheckSaxonFileLoad
mvn test
- Expected result
Proper serialization. In particular, no mixed-content elements are expected.
- Actual result
Serialized node contains mixed-content element.
Content "MLSch " (empty space is a tab symbol) appears in the serialized XdmNode object.
- Notes
The source file itself is a valid XML document.
The libraries checked are: Java (1.6.0_45, 1.7.0_45), Saxon HE (9.4.0.7, 9.4.0.9, 9.5.1-3).
With Saxon HE 9.4 I get no error.
When I explicitly add Xerces library (2.6.2, 2.8.0, 2.8.1, 2.9.1, 2.11.0) to test module deps,
I also see no error.
Attached files contain both normal and broken serializations and screenshot with their comparison.

Sorry for the delay in responding to this.
This error, as far as I can tell, occurs when you use the Xerces parser bundled in the JDK, and does not occur when you use Apache Xerces.
This is unfortunately a common experience. The parser in the JDK is buggy, and I do not recommend its use.
There is nothing we can do about this in Saxon other than recommending that people use the Apache parser.
I don't believe the problem is in serialisation; the parser is reporting incorrect data to Saxon.
