[oXygen-user] Oxygen 14 with OT 1.5.6M5

[Eliot Kimber]

Milestone M5 of the OT changes from Ant 1.7 to Ant 1.8 and no longer uses
the Xerces bundled with Ant.

This breaks running the Toolkit from within Oxygen because the right Xerces
library isn't found:

/Applications/oxygen/frameworks/dita/DITA-OT/plugins/org.dita.base/build_pre
process.xml:27: java.lang.NoSuchMethodError:
org.apache.xerces.impl.xs.SubstitutionGroupHandler.<init>(Lorg/apache/xerces
/impl/xs/XSGrammarBucket;)V
    at org.apache.xerces.impl.xs.XMLSchemaValidatorXerces.<init>(Unknown
Source)
    
Is there a way to locally update the classpath Oxygen uses in order to pick
up the right Xerces jar?

Note that I've simply replace the as-installed DITA-OT distribution with the
1.5.6M5 distribution swapping it into the directory DITA-OT.

Cheers,

E.
