If no one from the Xerces-J team responds, I have to guess that xml-apis.jar was distributed with Xerces by error and is of no use for Xerces or for Xerces together with Xalan at all. Kind regards, Harald -----Original Message----- From: Michael R MR Glavassevich [mailto:mrglavas@ecemail.uwaterloo.ca] Sent: Donnerstag, 6. Februar 2003 18:35 To: xerces-j-user@xml.apache.org Subject: Re: Xerces 2.3.0 and *apis.jar To answer your questions, org.w3c.dom.views, org.w3c.dom.stylesheets, and org.w3c.dom.css are part of DOM Level 2. As far as I know, there is no support for these interfaces in Xerces. javax.xml.transform.* provide an API for XML Transformation, though you probably know that since you use Xalan as well. My guess as to why these packages are included with the distribution is that the XML parser APIs distributed with Xerces are now built from xml-commons, instead of the APIs checked in CVS with Xerces. Both xmlParserAPIs.jar and xml-apis.jar seem to be just different names for the same package, where one of the names (probably xmlParserAPIs.jar) has been deprecated. I think the change was made in order to apply a standard naming convention for this package across the XML Apache projects. I hope this helps.
