Validation block: conflict over Xerces xml-apis and jsr-173 
javax.xml.XMLConstants
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

         Key: COCOON-1878
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COCOON-1878
     Project: Cocoon
        Type: Bug

  Components: Blocks: Validation  
    Versions: 2.1.8, 2.1.9    
    Reporter: Ellis Pritchard
    Priority: Minor


blocks/validation/java/org/apache/cocoon/components/validation/jaxp/JaxpSchemaParser.java
 relies on the following constants defined in javax.xml.XMLConstants :

XMLConstants.RELAXNG_NS_URI
XMLConstants.W3C_XML_SCHEMA_NS_URI
XMLConstants.XML_DTD_NS_URI

These constants come from xml-apis-1.3.02.jar, which is part of Xerces; however 
the official release of javax.xml.XMLConstants from Sun (e.g. jsr-173 [1]) does 
not contain these constants, and therefore installing e.g. stax-api-1.0.1.jar, 
which contains the official XML API, may create a build or run-time failure, 
depending on the order that jars are loaded.

These constants should probably be obtained from elsewhere to avoid future 
problems.

Work-around: disable validation block, or remove XMLConstants from offical jars.
