Description Jan Pokorsky 2002-02-22 14:51:10 UTC 
The custom node offered by Environment.Provider is ignored. XMLDO shows just some own node (XMLDataNode??). If the xml module is disabled 
everything works well.
Comment 1 _ pkuzel 2002-02-22 15:20:07 UTC 
Sorry Jan, 

but it is intentional behaviour. Simply imagine that XML module
provides Environment.Provider returning its own XMLDataNode.
Comment 2 _ pkuzel 2002-02-22 15:52:36 UTC 
 - XMLDataObject's protected createNodeDelegate() modifies 
   DataObject's protected createNodeDelegate() semantics. 

 - DataObject's public final getNodeDelegate() semantics is described
   using protected createNodeDelegate(). 

 - XMLModule's XMLDataObject subclass modifies createNodeDelegate()
   semantics. It is allowed.

I consider it as API bug.

Of course we can workaround it in XML module, but only as last resort.
Comment 3 Jesse Glick 2002-03-01 16:51:46 UTC 
I think #19491 captures the basic discussion, and has a workaround. We
should either (1) implement issue #20532 and deprecate providing a
Node at all (it never worked with the XML module installed), or (2)
try to fix the problem in the XML module, i.e. support the API even
though it is not "nice". (1) would be preferable IMHO if we can do it
for 3.4.
