Re: substitutionGroup across namespaces

I currently use:
    private static final String JAXP_SCHEMA_LANGUAGE = 
"http://java.sun.com/xml/jaxp/properties/schemaLanguage";
    private static final String W3C_XML_SCHEMA       = 
"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";
    private static final String SCHEMA_SOURCE        = 
"http://java.sun.com/xml/jaxp/properties/schemaSource";
As detailed in the following IBM article:
http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/xml/library/x-tipvalschm/
I do know that our original xsds worked with that property, but that was 
where we imported the java namespace into rules.xsd and used choice.

I'm looking at xerces and see that it has its own properties as well.
http://xml.apache.org/xerces-j/properties.html
However using this property I can no longer specify the xsds as an 
InputStream, how would I specify urls for  files that are in jars, which 
themselves are in the classpath?
