I am trying to use the Jets3t library within an Android application, and I keep getting errors with the Rest service when I use the library.
04-27 16:47:39.491: ERROR/S3Service(225): Couldn't initialize a sax driver for the XMLReader
I have tried to include the Xerces library and the Crimson library, and it dont play well. I get this error:
Attempt to include a core class (java.* or javax.*) in something other
than a core library. It is likely that you have attempted to include
in an application the core library (or a part thereof) from a desktop
virtual machine. This will most assuredly not work. At a minimum, it
jeopardizes the compatibility of your app with future versions of the
platform. It is also often of questionable legality.
If you really intend to build a core library -- which is only
appropriate as part of creating a full virtual machine distribution,
as opposed to compiling an application -- then use the
"--core-library" option to suppress this error message.
Is there something I can do to get it working ?
Apparently you can work around the SAX driver issue by setting the following system property:
System.setProperty("org.xml.sax.driver", "org.xmlpull.v1.sax2.Driver");
