InternalError while importing a Notation node with Document.importNode()

Name: inR10064 Date: 12/08/2000



  JAXP 1.1 method org.w3c.dom.Document.importNode(Node importedNode, boolean deep)
throws an java.lang.InternalError while importing a Notation node from another
document into current document (See test.java below).

  Definition of the method in p. 1.2 "Fundamental Interfaces" of DOM Level 2 Core
(http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/PR-DOM-Level-2-Core-20000927/core.html#ID-1780488922)
says:

" importNode introduced in DOM Level 2
        Imports a node from another document to this document.
        .....
        NOTATION_NODE
           Notation nodes can be imported, however in the current release of the DOM
           the DocumentType is readonly. Ability to add these imported nodes to a
           DocumentType will be considered for addition to a future release of the
           DOM.
           On import, the publicId and systemId attributes are copied.
           Note that the deep parameter has no effect on Notation nodes since they
           never have any children. "
           
This bug appears in builds jaxp-1.1ea-b09, jaxp-1.1ea2-b10, jaxp-1.1ea2-b11,
jaxp-1.1ea2-b12, jaxp-1.1ea2-b13, jaxp-1.1ea2-b14 and affects the new test in TCK
JAXP 1.1
