Hi,
We have an application which uses OpenCMIS and was developed for WebLogic
application servers, but can also run on WebSphere application servers.
The simplest way to get it to run on WebSphere included the removal of the
stax2-api.jar file, and the configuration of the application server to use
IBM's StAX implementation instead of Woodstox.
This worked OK using OpenCMIS 0.10.0, but with 0.12.0 we get
NoClassDefFoundError trying to load the Woodstox class, which is not in the
classpath as we want to use a different StAX implementation.
The problem arises in org.apache.chemistry.opencmis.commons.impl.XMLUtils:
try {
// Woodstox is the only supported and tested StAX implementation
factory = new WstxInputFactory();
} catch (Exception e) {
// other StAX implementations may work, too
factory = XMLInputFactory.newInstance();
which would probably work OK if we got an Exception from the class loader, but
we get a java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError, which is a Throwable, not an
Exception, so it isn't handled correctly.
We do not have any urgent need to upgrade to version 0.12.0, so we can continue
to use version 0.10.0 or 0.11.0 for the next release of our application, but it
would be helpful if the code could be changed in a future release of OpenCMIS
to handle Throwable errors in the same way as Exceptions.
Many thanks,
Andy
