Hi Christoph,

What did you use from the class?

As in the discussion, many of the information are either inaccurate or irrelevant in the JDK (vs as a standalone impl).

Thanks,
Joe

Hi,
as I was using the xslt EnvironmentCheck class in my private testcase and recognizing it didn't exist anymore in JDK 9, I stumbled over this thread from last July below. I understand that you want to clean up and remove unnecessary code but I found the class quite useful as it would some up several (to me seemingly) interesting jaxp version information. The other Version.java class was removed, too. Was the information collected by these classes really that crappy that it could just be removed? Where would I get my XML version information from now? Thanks and best regards
Christoph

I agree as you planned, considering removing the two version classes in
JDK-8130058.
