[nenadk]

Hi,
I am trying to run test cases for newly released spring batch 2.0.0 and am getting this exception for some 35 test cases out of total 125 (please see the full trace below).

I searched for the class in all of the jars within the distribution but could not find it.
I have setup the project in eclipse (3.4.2) following instructions at http://static.springsource.org/sprin...g-started.html under "With Eclipse and without Maven".

Does anybody know what jar is missing?
Thanks

[amirvenkat]

You need to add com.springsource.javax.xml.stream-1.0.1.jar.

[nenadk]

Thanks for the reply.
This file is not part of org.springframework.batch-2.0.0.RELEASE-with-dependencies.zip distribution. Do you know where it can be downloaded from?

[amirvenkat]

Yes, i also couldnt find this jar file in Release2.0.0. May be, senior members
like Dave, etc can give us inputs.

But, this jar is present in RC3 bundle.

This worked for me:

Using maven:

<dependency>
<groupId>javax.xml.stream</groupId>
<artifactId>stax-api</artifactId>
<version>1.0-2</version>
</dependency>

or direct link to jar:

http://download.java.net/maven/1/jav...-api-1.0-2.jar
