On the other hand if you want to use the DOM Level 3 interfaces
provided by Xerces you'll need to put at least the "xml-apis.jar" in
the "endorsed" libraries, at least for compilation - I'm not sure if
one would need it run-time.
You should always use the endorsed standards mechanism for the JAXP 1.3
APIs when running on J2SE 1.4. JAXP 1.3 and DOM Level 3 added methods to
existing classes and interfaces, all of which are present when the parser
is compiled. If you simply put xml-apis.jar on the classpath you risk
running your application with a mix of classes from JAXP 1.1 and 1.3 which
may lead to a NoSuchMethodError being thrown at some point during
processing becuase of the mismatch.
You're correct - I've just verified the newer interfaces must are
available during compilation and run-time. There could be a problem
if one uses a DOM built from an older implementation which doesn't
expose the newer methods but that's no option here, I guess.
