Update to Boot Class Path: The following XML API jar files (shipped with the SDEJ) should be added to the boot class path if the IBM Websphere Java SDK is being used.
  • %CURAMSDEJ%\lib\xalan-2.7.1.jar
  • %CURAMSDEJ%\lib\serializer-2.7.1.jar
  • %CURAMSDEJ%\lib\xerces-2.9.1.jar

The boot class path can be set as a JVM parameter. For example:

-Xbootclasspath/p: %CURAMSDEJ%\lib\xalan-2.7.1.jar; %CURAMSDEJ%\lib\serializer-2.7.1.jar;%CURAMSDEJ%\lib\xerces-2.9.1.jar
