Thank you very much. I have now downloaded the http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/apache/ws/commons/ws-commons-java5/1.0 .1/
As far as http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/apache/ws/commons/ws-commons-util/1.0. 1/ this seems to be included in the xmlrpc-3.0.1 distro so I didn't need to get it. In the meantime, I downloaded the J2SDK 5.0 source from Sun and put the file javax.xml.NamepaceContext.java into my project. That worked as well, although it would obviously be cleaner to use this jar. I think the xmlrpc-3.0 people need to put a little more documentation on their site. It wasn't really clear that you needed to get this jar if you were not using 5.0 (and there is no link there that I could find). Also there is no upgrade guide for moving from 2.0 to 3.0 telling me that code which previously referenced Hashtables now had to be modified to use HashMaps and code that previously used Vectors now had to use Lists or Object[]s. I had to discover these myself. Actually, that is VERY tricky because on this page http://ws.apache.org/xmlrpc/types.html It says that an XML-RPC array type maps to an Object[] or java.util.List. Very odd. Indeed I found that sometimes it was an Object[] and sometimes a List and I had to write a method to handle that. Why would it not be consistent, I wonder? At any rate, I think that now that I have gotten over this pain, I will be happier with the new code because it offers a better way to implement Timeout processing, my reason for making the switch. But this was much rougher than it should have been. Still, I understand open source realities and I thank you for your support. -----Original Message----- From: Jochen Wiedmann [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 04, 2006 4:49 PM To: xmlrpc-dev@ws.apache.org Subject: Re: Is there a "distributon" for ws-commons-java5 On 10/4/06, COHEN, STEVEN M (SBCSI) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Caused by: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: > javax/xml/namespace/NamespaceContext > > Doing a little research on the Apache XML-RPC site, I am led to > http://ws.apache.org/commons/ws-commons-java5/index.html That class is a part of Java 5. With elder Java versions, you need the ws-commons-java5 jar file from http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/apache/ws/commons/ws-commons-java5/1.0 .1/ In either case, you will also need the ws-commons-util jar files from http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/apache/ws/commons/ws-commons-util/1.0. 1/ Jochen -- My wife Mary and I have been married for forty-seven years and not once have we had an argument serious enough to consider divorce; murder, yes, but divorce, never.
