Re: [CFCDev] Java DOM API's(Crimson/Xerces) in CFMX 6.1 Or RedSky

[Matt Liotta]

As of CFMX J2EE phase 2, CFMX uses Crimson and not JAXP for XML 
processing. Thus, configuring your J2EE application server to use a 
JAXP parser other than Crimson will be a problem.

CFMX looks like it uses  J2SE Crimson XML Parser, haven't seen any
references
to xerces.
Is there a ways to switch Crimson Parser to Xerces-J 2.4.0?
I guess CF use whatever parser is currently implemented by the JAXP 
API in
the JRE. So far Sun has been using Crimson, but that could change in 
the
future. I would suggest to look around for a quick overview on JAXP, 
you
may
start from here:

http://java.sun.com/xml/jaxp/

I would expect the change to happen at some point, seeing as Crimson 
has
been rolled into Xerces, and hasn't existed as a standalone project for
almost a year now. In fact, according to the Crimson "Roadmap" on the 
Apache
site:

"The Crimson codebase is based on the Sun Project X parser. It is also 
the
parser currently shipping in Sun products; however, the future plan is 
to
move to a different codebase called Xerces Java 2. Xerces 2 is 
currently
under development. [Link to Xerces 2, once a project page has been
created.]"

However, if my understanding is correct, Crimson has been rolled into
Xerces, so switching over to Xerces 2.4 probably doesn't get you much. 
But I
could be wrong on this last thought.

Dave.
