Re: GWT2.8 : org.apache.xerces.parsers.XIncludeAwareParserConfiguration cannot be cast to org.apache.xerces.xni.parser.XMLParserConfiguration

It seems still to be an issue with the final 2.8.0 release

Hi Ian,

Yes, we are still seeing the problem. I've put it aside for the moment, hoping to revisit once we upgrade to a new GWT Release Candidate.
Glad to know I'm not the only one suffering from this :)

Cheers
Darren

Hi,

I am developing a <web-app> that contains within it
  - a vanilla HttpServlet
  - a GWT RPC Service implementation (RemoteServiceServlet) 

I am currently using [GWT2.8rc1].

Both servlets manipulate XML documents, and hence make calls to the following code
DocumentBuilderFactory docfactory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
docfactory.setNamespaceAware(true); 

DocumentBuilder builder = docfactory.newDocumentBuilder();   // * problem here *

When I launch the application in Eclipse, using the embedded Jetty container, the vanilla HttpServlet will fail at the line
DocumentBuilder builder = docfactory.newDocumentBuilder();   // * problem here *

The error message is 
  java.lang.ClassCastException: org.apache.xerces.parsers.XIncludeAwareParserConfiguration cannot be cast to org.apache.xerces.xni.parser.XMLParserConfiguration

Having done some research, this exception is typically raised when there are several Xerces implementations found on the classpath.
(I can only see Xerces implementations in gwt-dev and in Eclipse as a plugin).


For the GWT RPC Service implementation, launched as part of the same <web-app>, the XML document processing works fine - i.e. no exception raised.

If I comment out in the web.xml file the GWT-RPC servlet defintion, then the vanilla HttpServlet will perform the XML document processing without an exception.


Has anyone encountered similar problems?

Darren Smith.
