Re: Xerces for Java Installation

I don't use Netbeans.  Is this "Jar/Folder options" part of the Netbeans 
itself or the project classpath?  I would think you would add it to the 
project classpath just like any other jar that you want your project to 
compile against.

BTW, I suggest not directly depending on classes in the "org.apache.xerces" 
package.  That's all internal implementation stuff.  You should be depending 
on the standard public XML APIs.  That said, being able to reference 
"org.apache.xerces" is proof that Xerces is, indeed, in your classpath.  But I 
would only use it for that and not have project classes depend upon the 
internal Xerces implementation.
