New to Java

Hi,

I am having trouble using the Xerces XML parser, when I attempt to create a new instance of the DocumentBuilder I get the error:

javax.xml.parsers.FactoryConfigurationError: Provider org.apache.xerces.jaxp.DocumentBuilderFactoryImpl not found

I have been searching for a couple of days now and have tried using:

System.setProperty("javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory", "org.apache.xerces.jaxp.DocumentBuilderFactoryImpl");

as recommended in another thread, I have imported all required jar files into Eclipse and if I create an instance of 'org.apache.xerces.jaxp.DocumentBuilderFactoryImpl' explicitly in code it compiles so the libarary is available.

I am from a C++/C# background with only limited knowledge of the Java environment and so could be missing something blindingly obvious but I am at a loss as to what it is so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
