System.getProperty() throws SecurityException in sandbox

[Igor Malinin <ig...@widespace.ee>]

I've tried to use Xerces parser with WebStart but it is not
possible now as Xerces does not catch security exeptions for
System.getProperty() calls. Same issue with applets I think...

It is not hard to fix this problem and then Xerces can be used
with WebStart and other sandbox environments. Sun JAXP 1.1 does
that and I use it now for parsing. But in future I need more
functions and cannot do without Xerces parser.

I hope this will be fixed in next release of Xerces as this
simple issue limit environments when Xerces can be used!
