When the servlet container and your own servlets use a common package,
there's a potential
for a version conflict. I've encountered this with Tomcat and the JRun.
The "early access" XML API
from Sun which we used was incompatible with the XML API Tomcat and JRun
came with --
in particular, the servlet container said it couldn't find method
getXMLReader in
javax.xml.parsers.SAXParser -- the jar file that Tomcat and JRun used
contained an early version of
SAXParser that didn't have this method.
Is there a standard way to change the CLASSPATH seen by servlets so this
sort of conflict
can be avoided?
BTW, the "early access" XML API is now the 1.1 final release (no longer
early access).
