Any help that you can offer is appreciated. I'm using Spring Castor and need to map date and time values from a Java object to XML. Castor is throwing a run time Exception stating that it can't find the class org.apache.xerces.jaxp.datatype.XMLGregorianCalendarImplDescriptor. That kind of problem usually indicates a missing jar but I can't determine in which jar XMLGregorianCalendarImplDescriptor is. Has anyone encountered a problem like this and found a solution?
The relevant portion of my mapping file is this: <class name="com.ohcs.bean.SearchTA1InterchangeAcknowledgement" auto-complete="false"> <map-to xml="searchTA1InterchangeAcknowledgement"/> <field name="interchangeTime" type="javax.xml.datatype.XMLGregorianCalendar" required="false" direct="false" transient="false"> <bind-xml name="interchangeTime" node="element" reference="false"/> </field> <field name="interchangeDate" type="javax.xml.datatype.XMLGregorianCalendar" required="false" direct="false" transient="false"> <bind-xml name="interchangeDate" node="element" reference="false"/> </field> </class> Here is a portion of the stack trace that's produced at run time: 09 Aug 2011 17:35:43 DEBUG org.exolab.castor.xml.util.resolvers.CastorXMLStrategy -
