[xsd-users] Xerces-C++ 3.0.0 beta 1 released

[Boris Kolpackov]

Hi,

The first beta for the upcoming Xerces-C++ 3.0.0 release is available
for download:

http://people.apache.org/builds/xerces/c/

If you are planning to upgrade to 3.0.0 once the final version is
out, I suggest that you give this beta a try and report any problems
so that they can be fixed before the final release. Here are some of
the reasons why you may want to upgrade:

 - Better build system (autotools) for UNIX/Linux platforms
 - Project files for VC 9
 - Support for the ICU transcoder in VC 7.1, 8, and 9 project files
 - libcurl-based net accessor
 - Support for XInclude
 - Support for a subset of XPath
 - Conformance to the final DOM Level 3 interface specification
 - Ability to provide custom DOM memory manager
 - Better 64-bit support
 - Cleaned up error messages
 - Better tested, including against W3C XML Schema test suite
 - Removal of the deprecated code

For more details on this beta see the official announcement:

XSD 3.1.0 has all the necessary support for Xerces-C++ 3.0.0
and was tested with this beta.
