Error trying to use external jar [message #68119]

I need to read an xml file into a DOM. I tried Xerces but I get I get a
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError looking for
org/apache/xerces/parsers/AbstractDOMParser at runtime.

I then tried Crimson and get basically the same thing
(java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/xml/parsers/DocumentBuilderFactory).
What am I doing wrong? I simply added the jar to the Java Build Path in the
Libraries tab.

Thanks,
Ron

Ron :

Are you trying it in a plugin or in a standalone app ? If you are
running in a standalone app, try to add xercesImpl.jar to the build
classpath. If you are trying to read in a plugin, you need to add
org.apache.xerces_4.0.7 to your plugin dependencies.

Sincerely,
Antonio

Thanks Antonio! I forgot about the entry required in plugin.xml.

Thanks again for jarring my memory!
