Rick Hillegas commented on DERBY-4782:
--------------------------------------

Hi Kathey,

What platforms are you concerned about? The contents of xml-apis.jar are in the 
JRE for all of the platforms which Derby supports (jdk 1.4 on up) except for 
CDC/FP 1.1. I can see that we might want to document more limitations of the 
small platform here: 
http://db.apache.org/derby/docs/10.6/ref/ref-single.html#rrefjdbcjsr169 
However, that page does allude to the fact that XML is not supported on small 
platforms.

I can see that someone might want to test the combination of CDC/FP 1.1 + XML. 
Conversely, someone else might want to test small platforms as they exist in 
the wild, without being supplemented with capabilities which Derby does not 
claim to support.  I would rather place the burden on the first class of 
people. That is, I would prefer that testers have to manually add xml-apis.jar 
rather than manually remove it.

Thanks,
-Rick

> In DERBY-3702 xml-apis.jar was removed from tools/java because it is no
