java: replace obsolete dependencies on xml-apis and Xerces. - #501
Merged
Conversation
Update the code to use the modern JAXP solution. This removes the need for Xerces, Xalan serializer, xml-apis, Crimson, and GNU XML, which we don't carry since a long time. As a result, XMerge still builds and works, however the small devices it targets (Palm, pocketPC) are of little value nowadays and the implementation is candidate for deprecation in the future.
Clean some of metadata for xml-apis and Xerces that are not required anymore. ant itself has not required this in a while.

Both were absorbed by java and have been obsolete for a long time.
