ExceptionInInitializerError & Xerces

[anthony.mak]

I have the following codes to parse xml using xerces and I think when I
have line #2
and line #3 I got ExceptionInInitializerError as shown bellow. The
error message
is not very helpful, could anyone give me some ideas why I got this
error?

I also notice when includes all the xerces files in my jar file I had
no error, but if
I let JBuilder's deployment wizard to include only files that are
necessary, I got
the error but the error message does not give me any ideas which files
I am missing.

parser.parse(xmlfile.getAbsolutePath());

valid");
handler.saxParseException.printStackTrace(System.out);
throw new SAXParseException("XML Document is not valid",

JBuilder is likely not seeing some dependencies that exist because
Xerces is using reflection to resolve classes.

Add the classes from your working jar into the JBuilder's dependencies
list (however you do that) until it works.

Thanks John.
I thought it might be something this painful, ouch,
but thanks for confirming my idea.
