New Revision: 201870

Log:
Use org.w3c.dom.UserDataHandler instead of
org.apache.xerces.dom3.UserDataHandler. Xerces now uses DOM Level 3.
It means 2.1 won't run on older Xerces anymore. I think this is not
acceptable -
not at this moment anyway, when many containers are running with older
Xerces.
Please revert, for 2.1.
The problem is the old org.apache.xerces.dom3.UserDataHandler does not
exists in the new Xerces version.
What to do?
There are at least two options:
* Go back to older xerces :-)
* Check presense of the new xerces using reflection,
and make sure code works with both old xerces and new one.
I want to add, I noted this version is faster and seems they fixed some
bugs. We are using it right now in development and until now we don't
found errors. If you have some problems with this new release, I will like
to know about them.
Yes, I have. I won't be able to deploy Cocoon with this new Xerces for some time
till all containers, servers are upgraded to it. For some people, it could be
1/2 year to year. Cocoon 2.1 must continue to work on older Xerces releases to
ensure compatiblity with existing infrastructure a lot of folks out there have.
Not everybody can replace vital JDK parts on a whim.
If you see value in supporting new xerces, please use reflection.
Thanks,
Vadim
