This might seem like a trivial problem so forgive me if I seem a bit slow, but I just can't get the WebSphere Web Services SDK to work with Eclipse.
I've got the error:
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: javax.xml.parsers.SAXParserFactory
in my Eclipse config log file, which plenty of people have come across when trying to use Eclipse with an older or bespoke JVM, and have solved by running Eclipse with the latest version of the JVM. However, since (as far as I can make out) using the WebSphere SDK DOES rely on you using a bespoke JVM, I can't find a way around this.
I've got the "required" set of parameters in my PATH and CLASSPATH variables (as stated in the WebSphere installation guide). I've since been playing around shoving all sorts of other stuff into those variables, and have ended up quite lost.
I've got j2sdk1.4.2_02 on my machine, but am now a little confused as to whether Eclipse should use this, the WebSphere JVM, or a mixture of the two.
So, in short, can anyone help me??!!
Cheers,
