Re: [docbook-apps] changed paths in java 1.4.2 when using xerces with saxon

["Bob Stayton" <bobs at sagehill dot net>]

Well, I wonder what is going on here.  I use Java 1.4.2 and the -D options
you provided don't work for me.  I get this error:

"javax.xml.parsers.FactoryConfigurationError: Provider
com.sun.org.apache.xerces.
internal.jaxp.SAXParserFactoryImpl not found"

When I use the values from my book, it works without error.

I don't think the difference has to do with the version of Java, but with
the version of xerces being used.  I use Xerces 2.6.2 from apache.org, and
the listing of classes in its jar file includes the
org/apache/xerces/jaxp/SAXParserFactoryImpl.class.  The version that works
for you seems to be an "internal" version that comes from Sun, but I don't
have that version.  Do you know where your Xerces came from, and where it is
in your CLASSPATH?
