[relaxng-user] Installing custom datatype libraries

[Elliotte Harold]

Hmm, OK, the problem seems to be related to using the executable jing 
script instead of the Java class directly. But there's still a problem. 
This time it loads the BalancedString library and then hits a 
NullPointerException inside 
com.thaiopensource.relaxng.jarv.VerifierHandlerImpl.reset():


~/Desktop/Downloads/jing-20030619/sample/datatype$ java -classpath 
../../bin/jing.jar:datatype-sample.jar 
com.thaiopensource.relaxng.util.Driver datatype-sample.rng valid.xml

Any ideas? has anyone gotten the sample to work? For what it's worth, 
I've seen this on Mac OS X with java 1.4.2 and Linux with Java 1.5.
