Is javax.xml.parsers.SAXParserFactory.newSAXParser() implemented?

[Andy <lo...@mac.com>]

Sorry if this is a really obvious question, but its not in the FAQ and the
list archive server seems to be down...

I'm trying to create a SAX Parser using the generic javax.xml... interface
like so:


		try {
			
			SAXParserFactory factory = SAXParserFactory.newInstance();
			p = factory.newSAXParser().getParser();
			
		} catch (ParserConfigurationException e) {
			System.out.println(e);
			e.printStackTrace();
		} catch (SAXException sax) {
			System.out.println(sax);
			sax.printStackTrace();
		}


But what  I get is:

Exception Occurred:
javax.xml.parsers.FactoryConfigurationError: Cannot load class
SAXParserFactory class "org.apache.xerces.jaxp.SAXParserFactoryImpl"
	at javax.xml.parsers.SAXParserFactory.newInstance(SAXParserFactory.java:153)
	[etc]


When I look for org.apache.xerces.jaxp.* in the Xerces JAR file, it seems
to be missing.

I'm using the Xerces 1.1.1 binary release.

Am I missing something obvious or is the ....jaxp.SAXParserFactoryImpl
class just plain missing?

Aha! Glad to know I'm not going mad (well OK, that this isn't a symptom!)

I found the CVS repository, and I see its only 4 classes in this package...
should be a simple enough thing to just build these 4 and put them in the JAR?

It's just plain missing. ;-)  It was an oversight when 1.1.1 was released and
has since been fixed in CVS.

This is indeed missing from the 1.1.1 release.  Take a look at the
mail archive for details.  This seems to be a pretty common
post (I am one of the guilty ones who did not check the mail
archive first...).  I'm wondering if it would make sense to
release a 1.1.1a or 1.1.2 version to fix this, and cut down
on this common problem...
