Re: [eclipse-dev] XML Parsing In an Eclipse 3.0 Plugin
|
Speaking of Eclipse, Xerces and plug-ins, M6 comes with an
"org.apache.xerces" plugin that tags itself as "version 4.0.13" (which
is GREATER THAN the actual latest xerces version number of 2.6.0) but on
examining its plugin.xml also declares that "This is an IBM maintenance
branch of xerces 2.0.0". So, correct me if I'm wrong, but won't this
older version override any 2.6.0 xerces.jar that I try to import for my
plug-in?
Furthermore, a grep of plugin.xml files show that none of the other
plugins import org.apache.xerces - presumably they do their own XML
thing, or use the JDK1.4 XML capabilities.
Thus, should this plug-in be removed from the M7 distribution altogether?
thanks,
Nigel.

If the IBM version of Xercese is the only version that is available, is
there a way to utilize it to check schema? If not, is there an
alternative JAXP compatible parser that will run inside of eclipse?
