Jeremias Maerki updated FELIX-3364:
-----------------------------------
Attachment: xmlpullparser-visibility-patch.diff
I've created a patch that fixes the problem by throwing an IOException instead
of the XMLPullParserException. That loses the original stack trace but that's
probably still better than the other possible solution: exporting xmlpull.
Maybe you can think of an even better approach. HTH

> MetaDataReader can be useful outside the Metatype bundle and is part of the
> bundle's public API. But some public methods of MetaDataReader expose
> XmlPullParserException which is a private class (from the embedded xmlpull):
> public MetaData parse( URL url ) throws IOException, XmlPullParserException
> public MetaData parse( InputStream ins ) throws IOException,
> XmlPullParserException
> This prohibits the use of MetaDataReader from outside the Metatype bundle.
