Mukul Gandhi commented on XERCESJ-1689:
---------------------------------------
It seems Java is evolving faster than we can learn :). From the perspective of
Java ecosystem, it's necessary I think. I hope someone from Xerces team, would
look at points in this thread from architectural perspective & guide us
accordingly.
> Remove org.w3c.dom.html.HTMLDOMImplementation from xercesImpl.jar
> -----------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: XERCESJ-1689
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESJ-1689
> Project: Xerces2-J
> Issue Type: Wish
> Components: DOM (HTML)
> Affects Versions: 2.11.0
> Reporter: Otmar Humbel
> Priority: Critical
> Fix For: 2.12.0
>
>
> The interface {{org.w3c.dom.html.HTMLDOMImplementation}} is part of the JDK
> since Java {{1.7}}.
> Java 1.7 has been EOL 'ed since a long time.
> Is there any reason to keep this interface in {{xercesImpl.jar}}? It
> produces a split package:
> {{xerces-2_11_0: jdeps --jdk-internals -cp ./xercesImpl.jar}}
> {{split package: org.w3c.dom.html [jrt:/jdk.xml.dom, ./xercesImpl.jar]}}
> which prevents people from using modules in Java {{>= 9}}.
