Problem with the new XML APIs
-----------------------------
Key: MPJAVA-37
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MPJAVA-37
Project: maven-java-plugin
Type: Bug
Versions: 1.5
Environment: Mac OS X 10.4.1
Reporter: Jon Dokulil
When compiling a class which makes a call to
org.w3c.dom.Document.setXmlStandalone (part of the DOM Level 3 API, first
packaged with J2SE 5.0) I am getting an error that javac cannot find the symbol
setXmlStandalone(boolean). The error comes about because
$MAVEN_HOME/lib/endorsed/xml-apis-1.0.b2.jar comes before the J2SE 5.0
classes.jar (on Mac OS X, usually rt.jar on other operating systems) on the
classpath. This goes back to a problem of Maven using Xerces, which does not
support the latest W3C spec.
A dirty dirty short-term fix that worked for me is to replace
$MAVEN_HOME/lib/endorsed/xml-apis-1.0.b2.jar with a symbolic link to the
classes.jar/rt.jar file.
