[jira] [Commented] (XMLBEANS-539) Support for newer versions of Saxon as an XPath engine

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XMLBEANS-539?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16818332#comment-16818332 ] 

Andreas Beeker commented on XMLBEANS-539:
-----------------------------------------

I have a patch available for Saxon 9.8-HE on my "shelf", but haven't dared to apply it yet.

I think it was because of backwards compatibility.

If we decide to go for XmlBeans 4.0, that's something we should apply.

> It is still a limitation of using old version of Saxon to achieve xpath search in XmlBeans. It would be nice to be able to use Saxon HE with XmlBeans. Older versions of saxon (including early versions of HE prior to 9.5) have problems with new versions of java (getting error /lib/saxon9-xpath.jar/META-INF/services/javax.xml.xpath.XPathFactory:2: Illegal configuration-file syntax at java.xml/javax.xml.xpath.XPathFactory.newInstance(XPathFactory.java:119)).
