xmerl: Option {prolog,stop} removed between 0.17 and 1.0.3 ?

[Adam Aquilon]

Does anyone know why the {prolog,stop} option was removed somewhere
between xmerl-0.17 and xmerl-1.0.3 ?

Is there a replacement for it?

                  ---------------

I studied the changelogs available at sowap.sourceforge.net and the ones
that are part of the 1.0.3 documentation, but could only find the addition
of the feature in xmerl-0.16. There was no mention of it being removed
(as far as I could see).

When trying to run old code against 1.0.3, I got a 'function_clause'
exception in xmerl_scan:initial_state([{prolog,stop}], <state>).
There is no clause handling the {prolog,stop} option.

Thanks in advance for any info on this,
