The spec say that the implementation class names must be derived from
the System properties (so passed on the command line with the -D
argument), or they should default to the platform default.
The platform defaults for my implementation of the javax.xml.parsers
classes (the ones found in our CVS repository) are the Xerces ones, so,
if you use my implementation, you won't have any problem, while, if
you'll be needing to specify the properties on the command line.
This problem will be solved, anyhow, in JDK-1.4 (I believe) when you'll
have to specify system properties in a properties file.
