Java EE (Java Enterprise Edition) General Discussion

Hi,
Im using xerces.jar to parse my xml document. It works fine in Websphere Studio Application Developer. But when i moved my code to WebSphere 3.5/above Im getting the following error at runtime.

Message: Server caught unhandled exception from servlet [Auto-Invoker]: Server caught unhandled exception from servlet [com.dcx.itbc.eforms.servlet.Test]: org.apache.xerces.dom.NodeImpl: method (Lorg/apache/xerces/dom/CoreDocumentImpl;)V not found

This is becoz Websphere uses xerces.jar at run time and there is a version conflict of the jar file I used to compile my class and websphere is using.

Now, Im thinking of rewriting my class using JDOM. If JDOM internally uses xerces.jar then this problem wont be resolved.

Could you please let me know whether JDOM uses xerces.jar or is there any other solution to resolve this problem.

Thanks in advance.
