CLASSPATH - was RE: Batik/SVG working in latest FOP builds?

["Rossi, Bernard L. (LNG)" <Be...@lexisnexis.com>]

I've also seen a lot of these CLASSPATH problems while trying to use the
latest versions of Fop, Xalan and Xerces.  The problem is that they each
include many of the same classes (like w3c, sax, xml, etc.) in their jar
files.  The versions and signatures don't match up and you get problems.
This is even worse with WebSphere, which uses older versions of Xalan and
Xerces in the WebSphere Test Environment.  This is needs to be addressed.

Either you have an old version of batik or svg classes in you classpath or
you need to do a build clean.
