xalan-j 2.1.0 and jaxp.jar problem

[Xalan User <xa...@slib.fr>]

Hi to all,

I just discovered a strange problem on my Linux box.

I'm using latest IBM SDK 1.3, with the xalan-j 2.1.0 and xerces-j 1.4.0,
I rebuilt from sources for my RPM (but it's also the case with the binary).

CLASSPATH=/usr/share/java/xalan.jar:/usr/share/java/xerces.jar

When trying simple transform I've got a problem :

XSLT Error (javax.xml.transform.TransformerConfigurationException):
javax.xml.parsers.FactoryConfigurationError:
com.sun.xml.parser.SAXParserFactoryImpl

When I recopy the jars in a clean directory,

CLASSPATH=/home/test/xalan.jar:/home/test/xerces.jar

Everything works fine.

I digging into and discovered that jaxp.jar and parser.jar where present in
my /usr/share/java :
After removing them from /usr/share/java/,  I could use
CLASSPATH=/usr/share/java/xalan.jar:/usr/share/java/xerces.jar

Is it normal that xalan consider jaxp.jar it could found next to it's own
jar even if we didn't have specify
it in CLASSPATH ?

The previous release of xalan-j, 2.0.1, didn't have such problem.

Thanks
