    Description

      There are three ways to represent Windows network share paths in URI that are in use today:
      file://host/path
      file:////host/path
      file://///host/path

      Xerces-C++ only supports the later two. The first encoding is the Microsoft recommended[1] and Windows API functions construct URI this way. We should probably add support for the first format as well.
