Description John Dennis 2011-02-25 13:50:46 UTC 
Fedora 15 has brought to light a new jar dependency. We use xerces-j2 for xml parsing. xerces-j2 has a dependency on xml-commons-apis.jar which we had not previously been making available to the webapp class loader.

We had not detected a need for xml-commons-apis because we had not seen any NoClassDefFound errors related to it. The xerces project does not document their jar dependencies but the upstream source has a clear reference to it as a dependency. Therefore since we're using xerces-j2 we should have always provided the xml-commons-apis and it is technically correct to provide it even in OS versions were we had not previously seen a NoClassDefFound error related to the xml-commons-apis.jar contents because it is a defined dependency.
