Ryan McKinley commented on SOLR-851: ------------------------------------ stax utils is removed from trunk... but the stax libs are required unless you have java 6. if anything else would be helpful, patches are always welcome.... > Remove dependency on StAX Utils or make it optional > --------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SOLR-851 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-851 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: Wish > Affects Versions: 1.3 > Reporter: Gunnar Wagenknecht > > I found out that the dependency on https://stax-utils.dev.java.net/ comes > down to two places where BaseXMLInputFactory.newInstance() is called. > Is that intentionally or can those be replaced with > XMLInputFactory.newInstance()? > The method newInstance is not defined in BaseXMLInputFactory but in > XMLInputFactory which comes from the JDK in Java 6. I don't know about Java > 5, though. > If it's because of Java 5 can I prepare a patch for using reflection to make > the dependency on StAX Utils optional? The reason I'm asking is because I'm > about to submit Solr 1.3 for IP review to the Eclipse Foundation because I > want to use it in our Eclipse project. Lesser dependencies would make it > easier. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
