Re: Xerces-J 2.* On JDK 9

[Michael Glavassevich <mr...@ca.ibm.com>]

I can imagine there would be an issue with xml-apis.jar (and Java 9 
modularization), but nothing in xercesImpl.jar should conflict with 
classes in JDK 9. You should be able to include the implementation jar on 
the regular classpath.

Thanks.

 I just tried running Xerces on Java 9 (without Java 9 modularization, but
putting all Xerces Jars on Java 9 classpath). It works.

Here's a simple windows .bat file that works fine,

@echo off
set JAVA_HOME="C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-9.0.4"
set
BUILD_DIR=E:\eclipseWorkspace\xercesj\xerces-java-xml-schema-1.1-dev\build
set
CP=%BUILD_DIR%\cupv10k-runtime.jar;%BUILD_DIR%\icu4j.jar;%BUILD_DIR%\org.eclipse.wst.xml.xpath2.processor_1.2.0.jar;%BUILD_DIR%\resolver.jar;%BUILD_DIR%\serializer.jar;%BUILD_DIR%\xercesImpl.jar;%BUILD_DIR%\xercesSamples.jar;%BUILD_DIR%\xml-apis.jar
%JAVA_HOME%\bin\java -classpath %CP% jaxp.SourceValidator -i %1 -a %2 -f
-xsd11

Therefore I can claim,
XercesJ XSD 1.1 runs fine on Java 1.4.x upto Java 9,
&
XercesJ on trunk runs fine on Java 1.3.x upto Java 9.
