Hello, I have an issue where I'm trying to run Tomcat 4.1.12 with Axis 1.0 and my own webapp.
Both Tomcat 4.1.12 and Axis 1.0 prefer Xerces 2 (actually, Axis needs it because it needs the lexical handling that isn't offered by Xerces 1). However, a component in my own webapp (which I didn't write and don't have direct control over) seems to need Xerces 1. I've read through the Class Loader - HOW-TO and the installation instructions for Tomcat and Axis. It seems that, based on the classloading behavior of JDK 1.4 (which I'm using) in Tomcat that I could place xerces.jar in $CATALINA_HOME/myapp/WEB-INF/lib and it would be used with my web app whereas $CATALINA_HOME/common/endorsed, containing xercesImpl.jar and xmlParserAPIs.jar, would be used for any other webapp -- including Axis and Tomcat. This does not appear to be the behavior though. Xerces 2 is used for all webapps if it exists in $CATALINA_HOME/common/endorsed and the same holds true for Xerces 1. Is there any way I can make Tomcat (or JDK 1.4) use a specific version of xerces for any particular webapp while defaulting to a possibly different version of xerces for all the other webapps? Thank you very much in advance, Brion ---------------------------------------- Brion Swanson West Group x3659 ---------------------------------------- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
