tracker issue : CF-4126462

Problem Description: XMLParse() and XMLValidate() generate error when validating against namespace-aware schema. There is no such error when I validate using Java-based namespace-aware code.

Steps to Reproduce: Store the attached XML and XSD file in the same directory as the following 2 CFM files.

xmlValidationTest.cfm:
<cfset validationResults=XMLValidate(expandpath('test.xml'),expandpath('test.xsd'))> 
<cfdump var="#validationResults#">

xmlParseTest.cfm:
<cftry>
<cffile action="read" file="#expandpath('test.xml')#" variable="xmlstr">
<cffile action="read" file="#expandpath('test.xsd')#" variable="xsdstr">
<cfset validationResult=XMLParse(xmlstr,false,xsdstr)>
<cfdump var="#validationResult#">
<cfcatch type="any">
	<cfdump var="#cfcatch#">
</cfcatch>
</cftry>

Actual Result: An error:  cvc-elt.1: Cannot find the declaration of element 'BenchmarkImport'.

Expected Result: Successful error-free validation

Any Workarounds: the following Java-based code

<!--- Validate an XML document against an XSD, reading both in as file objects --->
<cfscript>
try {
	/*Set up XML parser*/
	documentBuilderFactoryInstance = createobject("java","javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory").newInstance();
	/* Specify that the parser produced by this code provide support for XML namespaces. By default this value is false */
	documentBuilderFactoryInstance.setNamespaceAware(true);
	parser = documentBuilderFactoryInstance.newDocumentBuilder();
	
	/* Parse an XML document into a DOM tree */
	document = parser.parse(createobject("java","java.io.File").init(expandPath('test.xml')));
	
	/* Create a SchemaFactory capable of understanding WXS schemas */
	factory = createobject("java","javax.xml.validation.SchemaFactory").newInstance(createobject("java","javax.xml.XMLConstants").W3C_XML_SCHEMA_NS_URI);
	
	/* Load a WXS schema, represented by a Schema instance */
	schemaFile = createobject("java","javax.xml.transform.stream.StreamSource").init(createobject("java","java.io.File").init(expandPath('test.xsd')));
	schema = factory.newSchema(schemaFile);
	
	/* Create a Validator instance, and use it to validate an instance document */
	validator = schema.newValidator();
	domResult = validator.validate(createobject("java","javax.xml.transform.dom.DOMSource").init(document), createobject("java","javax.xml.transform.dom.DOMResult"));
	writeoutput('Valid XML document!');
}
catch (any e) {
	writedump(e);
}	
</cfscript>
