Hi Joe,

This looks OK to me.


You might want to get the JCK test addressed before pushing your changes

All of the CatalogFeatures are supported by the JAXP factories and processors (e.g. SAXParser), and corresponding System properties as specified in the CatalogFeatures. An additional javax.xml property "USE_CATALOG" is added to allow switching on/off the Catalog support for a processor or all of them (through the System properties or jaxp.properties).

While the USE_CATALOG is on by default, the Catalog support is noninterference. As long as no catalog is set, the Catalog is mute. Catalog, even if one exists, will not interfere with custom resolvers, it is simply ignored if a custom resolver is present.
