org.xml.sax.driver problem

2002-07-24 01:37

I have some problem to run the jasperreport sample programs with JDK 1.4.

 

org.xml.sax.SAXException: System property org.xml.sax.driver not specified

 

I think the problem is that JRXmlLoader does not use the prefered way to load

an SAX Parser.

 

XMLReader xmlReader = XMLReaderFactory.createXMLReader();

xmlReader.setFeature("http://xml.org/sax/features/validation", true);

 

IMHO this is a better and more standard way to do the same task that:

 

SAXParserFactory factory = SAXParserFactory.newInstance();

factory.setValidating(true);

XMLReader xmlReader = factory.newSAXParser().getXMLReader();

Hi,

 

No, this is not the problem.

 

The problem is that you didn't provide a value

for the system property "org.xml.sax.driver".

You can do this using the -D switch when

you launch the JVM.

Its value depends on the XML parser you are using.

 

Check the samples to see how this is done using

the ANT tool. There we parse the XML file using

Xerces.

 

I hope this helps.
