setting system properties

[Adnan Fida <af...@point2.com>]

This question has less to do with SOAP but I was unable to find any other
place to ask this question.

Currently I am using JAXP and have two XML parsers (Xerces and Crimson). My
application defaults to Crimson where I want it to use Xerces. After going
through JAXP FAQ I found out that there is a system property that can be set
to control underlying parser implementation.

Does anyone would know the name and value of that property.

I would really appreciate any help.

Adnan

Yes, it should work.  Many of us have found that the best way to debug SOAP
is to use
the TcpTunnelGui application that is part of the Apache SOAP distribution.
The
application acts as a relay at the TCP port level and displays the data
going each
direction.

I am curious, are you using COM objects from the SOAP Toolkit, or are you
manually
creating the HTTP request, SOAP envelope, etc.?

The javadoc for DocumentBuilderFactory#newInstance says:

This method uses the following ordered lookup procedure to determine the
DocumentBuilderFactory implementation class to load:
    o Use the javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory system property.
    o Use the properties file "lib/jaxp.properties" in the JRE directory. This
configuration file is in standard java.util.Properties format and contains the fully
qualified name of the implementation class with the key being the system property
defined above.
    o Use the Services API (as detailed in the JAR specification), if available, to
determine the classname. The Services API will look for a classname in the file
META-INF/services/javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory in jars available to the
runtime.
    o Platform default DocumentBuilderFactory instance.
