If your application (if it's an old legacy application) is using features particular to Xerces 1.4.3, then upgrading to Xerces-J 2.9.1 (or the upcoming, version 2.10.0) may consume development effort (the effort will most likely to change your application, to use 2.9.1 or 2.10.0 version -- if your application is using APIs, which are not present in Xerces-J 2.9.1/2.10.0, which is most likely because Xerces-J 2.9.1+ is vastly better than, 1.4.3). -- Regards, Mukul Gandhi --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: j-users-unsubscr...@xerces.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: j-users-h...@xerces.apache.org
