xerces cloneNode issue

Dear Guys,

We had the below code in place for cloning a node.

        Node outNode = inNode.cloneNode(deep);

And then we found that clone node in xerces may sometimes delete a
attribute so we added below piece code but this is still not working. Can
you please let us know the issue?

"My guess is that xerces has another bug that sometimes value of the
attribute becomes null/blank". Is my understanding correct?


                if ( inNode.getNodeType() == Node.ELEMENT_NODE &&
inNode.hasAttributes() ){

                        NamedNodeMap attrMap = inNode.getAttributes();
                        Attr attr = null;
                        Attr outAttr = null ;

                        Attr debugAttr = null;
                        String debugVal = null;



                        for ( int i=0; i<attrMap.getLength(); i++ ){
                                attr = (Attr)attrMap.item(i);
                                // only append deleted attr.
                                if ((((Element)outNode).getAttributeNode
(attr.getName())) == null ){

                                        Dbg.dbg(Dbg.ERRORS, this, "XERCES
PARSER issue1 for GTAC0493287 reproduced for "+attr.getName());

                                        outAttr = getRenderer
().getOutDocument().createAttribute(attr.getName());
                                        outAttr.setValue( attr.getValue
() );
                                        ((Element)outNode).setAttributeNode
(outAttr);
                                }
                        }
                }


Thanks,
