Okay here it is. I extensively use XML in my application. It is the main
stay of my app. I have xml files for configuration (like the petstore)
and xml files for b2b and other connections. I use jdom to handle the xml
along with xerces as the parces (not the one that comes with orion, the
new one). For configuration, just use a url to get the xml file in the
jar, ie. context.getResource("/WEB-INF/xml/xmlmappings.xml"); Thats it,
no problems ever.
