Hi all,
I am facing a problem when both servlet.jar and
xerces.jar are present together in my classpath. The problem being while parsing
an XML file using the xerces parser, the jvm throws a noSuchMethod exception for
a the DOM class.
This problem was worked around by adding xerces at
the beginning of the classpath, before servlet.jar. However, when this is done
for a web based application, tomcat by default includes all the .jar files in
the lib directory in alphabetical order, wherein, servlet.jar comes in before
xerces.jar and the parsing fails. I found a temporary workaround by renaming
xerces.jar to a_xerces.jar.
But could somebody suggest a more sensible
solutiong to this problem ?
Thanks in advance
Seema
