Robert, thanks for the adivce, however, after further testing, I don't think I'm picking up another StAXUtils implementation. I had been using maven to build/run, but to be sure, I ran from command-line explicitly declaring my jars: (with the versions taken out):
java -cp axiom.jar;axis2.jar;commons-logging.jar;wstx.jar;stax.jar;test.jar -Djavax.xml.stream.XMLInputFactory=com.ctc.wstx.stax.WstxInputFactory test.Main I still get the same instantiation error when I call: XMLInputFactory sf = StAXUtils.getXMLInputFactory(); but, don't get an exception when I directly call: XMLInputFactory f = XMLInputFactory.newInstance(); any other possibilities? Are there some known errors with running with JDK6 perhaps? thanks Tom On 5/19/10, robert lazarski <robertlazar...@gmail.com> wrote: > On Wed, May 19, 2010 at 10:38 AM, Tom Herbert <twh...@gmail.com> wrote: >> So, I'm not sure why the StAXUtils doesn't seem to be pickign up my >> implementation file setting. >> > > You most likely are picking up another StAXUtils implementation from > another jar, often loaded from a AppServer (JBoss etc) classloader > with a higher precedence.
