Blocking javax.xml.bind in JDK1.6 [message #103910]

JDK1.6 now includes the Jaxb libraries, version 2.0. I want to use 2.1.

Is there a way to tell the framework that I want to use my net.java.jaxb
bundle instead of the javax.xml.bind packages provided in the 1.6 JDK?

I can use the net.java.jaxb_2.1.0 bundle when I run on JDK1.5 but the
packages in there get shadowed by the JDK when I run JDK1.6.

I seem to recall running into a similar problem with xerces a while back.

Hi,

you can control the usage of jre classes by boot delegation property.
This article explains it:

Hi Bill,

If your bundle requires a specific version of JAXB you shoud state that in
your Import-Package entries:

e.g. javax.xml.bind;version="2.1"

The flip side of this is that your javax.xml.bind 2.1 bundle should also be
exporting the packages with versions.

I tried that and it worked. Would the bootdelegation option work as
well? I had a hard time finding information on that property and since
I already had the package imports working I didn't spend any more time
on it.

That's great.
The approach you have working is what I would suggest.

I'm not sure boot delegation would help you for what you're doing. Even when
it is applicable I view boot delegation as a last resort.
