WebSphere bundles some libraries which are out-of-date, and need to be upgraded with more recent versions. Specifically, this includes XML-apis, Xerces, Xalan, and WSDL4J. There are a couple of ways to upgrade these libraries, all using parent-last or application-first classloading. • Package the libraries as part of the WAR (in WEB-INF/lib), and run the web application with the parent-last (application-first) classloading. • Package the libraries as part of the EAR, add class-path entries to the manifest of the web application, and run the entire application with the parent-last classloading. • Create a new classloader in the WebSphere console, and associate the libraries with. Set this classloader to parent-last. The last approach has the advantage of restricting the parent-last classloading to the conflicting libraries only, and not to the entire application.
