I have just installed Eclipes 3.0 and find out that Apache Xerces is
missing. Is there any reason why Eclipse guys remove it from this release?
How can I now use those APIs?

Thanks

ok I am using JDK 1.4.2 and I have this statement in my class
DOMParser parser = new DOMParser();

Eclipse 3.0 is giving me this error message : "DOMParser cannot be resolved
or is not a type"

The Eclipse's internal help is not able to resolve it. Is there anything I
am missing?

Thanks

The parser included in 1.4 is crimson, not xerces, so it will not be
found without adding it to your classpath.

Do you have a particular need to use xerces as opposed to using the
javax xml apis for parsing?

Well the code for XML we have, was written using Xerces and thats why I was
asking. Is not Xerces the best XML APIs out there or is Crimson better? If
Sun is supporting Crimson then probably its better that I start using it
too. What do you think?

Thanks

Unless there is a need to utilize functionality of a specific xml api I
would use the javax.xml package, as it allows me to swap implementations
if I so wish.

If you already have code dependent on xerces, just add the xerces libs
to your project.
