problem with Ant and Tomcat : build.xml

[joel cordonnier <jo...@yahoo.fr>]

I have download the source code of Ant and Tomcat; In
the file 'build.xml' of Tomcat, line 58, the is the
instruction: javac ..
classpath=${tomcat.build}/lib/xml.jar.

But when I build Ant, I got in the ant directory the
files ant.jar, jaxp.jar and parser.jar, BUT NO file
named xml.jar !?

I realise this when building Tomcat, because I got the
following error:

tomcat/core/HttpServletRequestFacade:java 143
method toDate(java.lang.String) not found in class
org.apache.tomcat.core.RequestUtil

long date = RequestUtil.toDate(value)

Thanks in advance for any help

parser.jar replaces xml.jar in the latest releases so you
should adjust the instruction accordingly.

JAXP is Sun's latest release of the toolkit that formerly
used xml.jar. You can find out more about it at java.sun.com
