           Summary: ParserFeatureSetterFactory makes invalid assumption
                    about SAX parser
           Product: Commons
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Sun
        OS/Version: Solaris
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Digester
        AssignedTo: commons-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: david@pastornet.net.au


The Commons Digester class
org.apache.commons.digester.ParserFeatureSetterFactory presumes that if
org.apache.xerces.impl.Version is on the classpath, then the sax parser factory
used will be a xerces sax parser factory.

That is not always a correct assumption!  The sax parser factory actually used
is determined by other factors documented at
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/javax/xml/parsers/SAXParserFactory.html#newInstance()

In a situation where the assumption is wrong, it can then proceed to invoke
setFeature methods on the non-xerces sax parser factory, which can throw
exceptions because the feature names are specific to xerces and are not
supported by other parsers.

Please correct the implementation so as to make the commons digester not make
wrong assumptions.

------- Additional Comments From skitching@apache.org  2006-04-24 08:42 -------
This has already been reported, and fixed in trunk. You can use a nightly build,
or (better still) avoid using the ParserFeatureSetterFactory completely (IMO it
was a bad idea in the first place).
