Err... the latest (1.4alpha) binary and source distribution have the JAXP 1.1 jars in the lib directory, which will get picked up automatically when you run ant. The 1.3 binary and source distributions have the JAXP 1.0.1 jars in the lib directory. What exactly do you mean when you say you did a "clean install" of Ant? > I'd like to propose that the "ant" script look for an environment > variable called "JAXP_HOME" and, if it's defined, add its "jaxp.jar" > and "crimson.jar" to LOCALCLASSPATH. And what happens when the next version of JAXP comes along and crimson.jar gets named blah.jar? The current method works better by my way of thinking. Glenn McAllister SOMA Networks, Inc.
