http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=7175 Class loading issues when using own XML parser ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2002-03-16 23:24 ------- I agree with Remy that you should stop trying to override the default XML parser. While you *may* be able to override it when using JDK 1.3, you will absolutely not be able to do it with JDK 1.4 as JDK 1.4 treats the XML parsing classes (also known as "endorsed" classes) as system classes. Hence, once the JVM is started, JDK 1.4 will not all any class loader in the process load alternate XML parsing classes that fall in any package names listed in the following URL: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/docs/guide/standards/index.html The only way around this JDK 1.4 restriction for your webapp only is to create an XML parser with package names that are not listed in the above URL (i.e. a very non-standard parser). There is another way around this restriction. However, it will force all webapps (and the container itself) to use your XML parser. You can put your parser jar files in the common/lib directory (4.0.x) or in the common/endorsed directory (HEAD). --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
