2 different version of xerces in same jvm

["Dighe, Rahul" <Ra...@bcbsfl.com>]

Hi, 
 Is it possible to have two different versions of xerces running in the same
jvm. My opinion is that its not. simply because whichever class file is
first in the classpath will take preference
  But is there anyway that we can accomplish this. 
  The problem is that we have a vendor which uses xerces 1.2.3 we have
written some extensions on top of what he is doing which needs to use 1.4.4
. now the vendor software does not run for some reason with 1.4.4 which is
presenting a very peculiar problem. and all this has to also run in the same
jvm. 
  can someone give me any suggestions ..any suggestions whatsoever are
welcome, we might even consider having it in two jvm's. if needed. please
let me know

thanks
rahul dighe.

Implement a custom class loader to load each version separately.
