Illegal method behavior for parameters well-formed,check-character-normalization

Name: eaR10174 Date: 09/15/2003


  The method DOMConfiguration.getParameter() returns false as the default value in case of
the parameter 'well-formed' and throws DOMException with the FEATURE_NOT_FOUND error code
in case of the parameter 'check-character-normalization' (see test.java below). According
to DOMConfiguration javadoc
  
    The following list of parameters defined in the DOM:
    
     ...
     
     "check-character-normalization"

    true
        [optional] Check if the characters in the document are fully normalized according
        to the rules defined in [CharModel] supplemented by the definitions of relevant
        constructs from Section 2.13 of [XML 1.1].
    false
        [required] (default)Do not check if characters are normalized.
        
        
    "well-formed"

    true
        [required] (default) Check if all nodes are XML well formed according to the XML
         version in use in Document.xmlVersion:

            * check if the attribute Node.nodeName contains invalid characters according
             to its node type and generate a DOMError of type
              "wf-invalid-character-in-node-name" if necessary;
            * check if the text content inside Attr, Element, Comment, Text, CDATASection
             nodes for invalid characters and generate a DOMError of type
              "wf-invalid-character" if necessary;
            * check if the data inside ProcessingInstruction nodes for invalid characters
             and generate a DOMError of type "wf-invalid-character" if necessary;

    false
        [optional] Do not check for XML well-formedness.


the method should return true in case of the parameter 'well-formed' and false in case of
the parameter 'check-character-normalization'.

  The bug appears in jdk1.5.0beta-b18 and affects a new JCK1.5 test:
