Remove dependency on StAX Utils or make it optional
---------------------------------------------------
Key: SOLR-851
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-851
Project: Solr
Issue Type: Wish
Affects Versions: 1.3
Reporter: Gunnar Wagenknecht
I found out that the dependency on https://stax-utils.dev.java.net/ comes down
to two places where BaseXMLInputFactory.newInstance() is called.
Is that intentionally or can those be replaced with
XMLInputFactory.newInstance()?
The method newInstance is not defined in BaseXMLInputFactory but in
XMLInputFactory which comes from the JDK in Java 6. I don't know about Java 5,
though.
If it's because of Java 5 can I prepare a patch for using reflection to make
the dependency on StAX Utils optional? The reason I'm asking is because I'm
about to submit Solr 1.3 for IP review to the Eclipse Foundation because I want
to use it in our Eclipse project. Lesser dependencies would make it easier.
