[jdom-interest] BOM-Handling depends on JRE?!

[Kai Wörner]

Hi!

Im parsing XML-Files via

SAXBuilder parser = new SAXBuilder();
doc = parser.build(xmlFile); 

this code throws me a 
org.jdom.input.JDOMParseException: Error on line 1 of document [doc]:
Dokumentwurzelelement fehlt
for XML-documents beginning with a BOM when run through JRE 1.4.2, but not
through 1.5. Documents without BOM work just fine for both JREs. Where could
that behaviour come from? I'm confused!

Thanks,

Kai Wörner
