Re: [Geotools-devel] XML module

[David Z. <dav...@gm...>]

Justin, a  couple questions here about ESM:

 - How does this affect download sizes of other client applications
(GeoServer)
 - How does this affect the IP issues that have been ongoing?
 - Is this a dependency Geotools should have?
 - Is the library thread safe?

The third question is most important (I think). From some cursory glances
(and informal design sessions a while back), the implementation looks like a
good second generation to my first run at the problem. That said, it also
alters the requirements ... mainly you are now relying on a single parsing
framework (I was told the internal Xerces framework was off limits at the
time).

The fourth question, is more todo with servlet containers. I don't know a
whole ton about ESM, so this may not be a concern ... but when we have two
simultanious executions threads (in a servlet) executing the same
functionality, will the end user (Ex. Geoserver) need to perform any special
actions (Like the Synchronizers commonly used for SDE calls)?

Thanks,

DZ
