[ANN] Xerces-C++ 3.1.0 released
Boris Kolpackov
I am pleased to announce the release of Apache Xerces-C++ 3.1.0.
Xerces-C++ is an open-source, validating XML parser written in a
portable subset of C++. It provides DOM (level 1, 2, and 3), SAX,
and SAX2 APIs and supports validation of XML documents against DTD
and XML Schema.
This version includes a number of new features, performance improvements
and a large number of bug fixes, especially in the XML Schema spec
conformance area, including:
* Support for handling multiple XML Schema import declarations with
the same target namespace.
* Support for configuration of the parser buffer low water mark.
* DOMLSParser::parseWithContext implementation.
* Improved XML Schema performance and reduced memory footprint when
validating with large maxOccurs values. If available, the SSE2
instructions are used to further speedup this case.
* Improved scalability of the XML Schema identity checking (key,
keyref, and unique).
* More robust external library detection (libcurl and ICU).
* Compilation of the ICU message loader resources no longer depends
on the ICU implementation details.
For a more detailed list of changes see the official announcement:

This release has been tested on all major platforms and comes with
precompiled libraries (total 16) for various CPU architectures,
operating systems, and C++ compilers. For most platforms 32-bit and
64-bit variants are provided.
More information on Xerces-C++, including documentation and build
instructions, is available from the project's website:
