look at the bottom of the page http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.0-doc/class-loader-howto.html
"As mentioned above, the web application class loader diverges from the default Java 2 delegation model (in accordance with the recommendations in the Servlet Specification, version 2.3, section 9.6). When a request to load a class from the web application's WebappX class loader is processed, this class loader will look in the local repositories first, instead of delegating before looking. All other class loaders in Tomcat 4 follow the usual delegation pattern.
Therefore, from the perspective of a web application, class or resource loading looks in the following repositories, in this order:
- /WEB-INF/classes of your web application
- /WEB-INF/lib/*.jar of your web application
- Bootstrap classes of your JVM
- System class loader classses (described above)
- $CATALINA_HOME/common/classes
- $CATALINA_HOME/common/lib/*.jar
- $CATALINA_HOME/classes
- $CATALINA_HOME/lib/*.jar"
[EMAIL PROTECTED]">Martin,
The Xalan and Xerces implementations built into JDK1.4 are outdated. Cocoon2 won't run with them.
Yes, This will have effects on other applications. The other option is to set TOMCAT_OPTS
environment variable as follows:
TOMCAT_OPTS=-Xbootclasspath/p:C:\cocoon2\tools\lib\xalan-2.2.0.jar;C:\cocoon2\tools\lib\xerces-1.4.4.jar;C:\cocoon2\tools\lib\xml-apis.jar
This is what happens under the covers when you place the jars in jre\lib\endorsed directory.
Thanks,

JDK14 is officially released - http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/download.html.
- Download and install JDK14.
- Create a new directory named endorsed under jre\lib.
- Drop xalan-2.2.0.jar, xerces-1.4.4.jar and xml-apis.jar in
jre\lib\endorsed.Why xalan and xerces ?
Sun is talking about the packages org.w3c.dom, org.xml.sax, org.xml.sax.ext
and org.xml.sax.helpers.
Those packages have been moved from xalan and xerces to xml-apis.jar
some time ago. Unless Suns documentation is wrong, copying xml-apis.jar
should be enough and copying xerces.jar and xalan.jar may have
nasty sideeffects on other applications.PS: Details on "Endorsed Standards Override Mechanism" is at
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/docs/guide/standards/.
