-A note on JAXP
------------------------
-
-Since Java 1.4, JAXP (Java API for XML Processing) is part of the
-JRE/JDK. Every JVM includes the APIs and an implementation. However,
-older JREs often contain implementations with bugs that are triggered
-by code in Apache FOP and therefore need to be overridden. Now, since
-JAXP is part of the class library, special precautions are necessary
-to replace the original implementations. This is not done by simply
-adding new JARs to the classpath as these classes would never be
-loaded (due to Java's class loader hierarchy).
-
-Replacing the default implementations involves understanding the
-"Endorsed Standards Override Mechanism".
-More information can be found here:
-http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/guide/standards/index.html
-
-See also:
-http://xml.apache.org/xalan-j/faq.html#faq-N100EF
-
-Essentially, you have two different possibilities:
-- add the replacement JARs in the jre/lib/endorsed directory of your JRE.
-- Use the -Xbootclasspath/p: option when starting the JVM (may not be
- available for every JVM).
-
-
