how to determine version xml-apis.jar and xercesImpl.jar [Re: Xerces
2.3.0 and 2003-02-08 - By Aleksander Slominski
hi,
is there a recommended way to check that APIs and Xerces implementation
jar files are in sync and compatible (except manually debugging
classpath ...)? is metadata information (such as version of APIs or what
version of APIs Xerces impl requires) recorded somewhere when those jar
files are built so it can be easily accessed: xercesImpl.jar has empty
Manifest .mf but xml-apis.jar has Manifest.mf with API versions but it
is not clear how this can be used - so i wonder is there any way to
discover version xml-apis.jar (and of all APIs that included in it) from
java program?
or best of all: can somebody provide a pointer to existing documentation
on how to deal with those issues (best practices) when working with XML
APIs and their implementations (such as Xerces2 and in general)?
thanks,
alek
