PM09976: XSTARCOMPILER.SETCLASSNAME MODIFIES THE USER'S CLASS NAME

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• XStarCompiler.setClassName modifies the class name if it
  thinks it is not a valid Java class name (replaces invalid
  characters with '_').  But when loading it does not do the
  same thing, so when you pass in the original class name, no
  class will be found.

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED:  Users of the WebSphere Application Server   *
  *                  7.0 with Feature Pack for XML 1.0.0.3 or    *
  *                  earlier                                     *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Class name for compiled artifacts may   *
  *                      be modified                             *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  When using an XCompilationFactory to compile XSLT, XPath, or
  XQuery into Java classes, the class name provided to the
  XCompilationParameters instance was scanned for characters
  which would be invalid for a Java class name.  These
  characters were replaced with '_' but when loading compiled
  artifacts, the same process was not supplied.  Thus, using the
  same class name provided in the XCompilationParameters
  instance originally could result in the class not being found.
   The Javadoc for XCompilationParameters requires that the
  supplied class name be a valid Java class name.
  

Problem conclusion

• The provided class name is now used as-is, and is not modified
  when compiling or loading. You must ensure that the name
  provided is a valid Java class name.
  
  This APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in the Feature
  Pack for XML 1.0.0.5.  Please refer to the Recommended Updates
