[jdom-interest] JDOM, Xerces, and JRun

Fri Dec 1 10:57:26 PST 2000

Hi, All,

I'm trying to use JDOM with Xerces and JRun.  When I go to run this JSP
(which uses JDOM and the XercesDOMAdapter):

<%@ page import="java.io.*, org.jdom.*, org.jdom.adapters.*,
org.jdom.input.*" %>
<%
String errormsg="";

try
{

	String xmlpath = application.getRealPath("jspxml/demos/menu.xml");

	DOMBuilder builder = new DOMBuilder("org.jdom.adapters.XercesDOMAdapter");

	Document doc = builder.build(new File(xmlpath));
}
catch
(Exception e)
{
	errormsg = e.getMessage();
}

%>

<html>
<head>
	<title>JDOM Results</title>
</head>

<body>
<h2>
<%
if (errormsg.equals(""))
{
	out.println("JDOM Parsing was successful");
}
else
{
	out.println("Exception: " + errormsg);
}
%>
</h2>
</body>
</html></html>

I get this error:

Exception: org.apache.xerces.dom.NodeImpl: method
(Lorg/apache/xerces/dom/DocumentImpl;)V not found:
org.apache.xerces.dom.NodeImpl: method
(Lorg/apache/xerces/dom/DocumentImpl;)V not found

I have the xerces (and JDOM) JARs installed in JRun's lib\ext directory.
What am I missing?

Thanks for your help,

Steve
