Description Christian K. CLA 2012-02-06 06:01:21 EST 
Currently the SAX handler (ExtendedSAXXMLHandler) which is used to parse XML files ignores certain whitespace.
For mixed elements (i.a. XML Schema complexType with mixed="true") this whitespace might be significant and it should be passed on so that it will be part of the in-memory object model so that it can also be read/processed by applications/users.
Passing on the whitesoace is also a prerequisiste to make sure the whitespace will also be serialized back into the file duing model saving.
Comment 1 Christian K. CLA 2012-02-23 03:20:35 EST 
ExtendedSAXXMLHandler has been adjusted to not ignore whitespace any longer.
