I am new to Grok, so excuse me if I miss something. I read a previous thread about RegEx features of 1.4 (which are amazingly useful!), but I was wondering if there was a plan to use the javax.xml package now packaged with the JDK.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
I haven't yet looked at the javax.xml package. We currently use JDOM plus Xerces. However, provided that functionality and performance can be equally met by packages from the Java API, I would prefer to swap over to the Java packages wherever possible. If someone feels like investigating whether it is possible for the XML stuff, that would be a welcome effort.
I think that JDOM is set to become part of the Java API at some point, is it not?
Anyway, I think it may soon be time to move up to 1.4, if only for the regular expressions.
