add try-catch-block for XMLConstants.ACCESS_EXTERNAL_DTD

[Martin-Luft]

The XMLConstants.ACCESS_EXTERNAL_DTD property is not supported by every
XML library.

Since 3.0.6 I get this error:

ContextLoader.initWebApplicationContext:312 - Context initialization failed
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Unrecognized configuration feature: http://javax.xml.XMLConstants/property/accessExternalDTD
	at net.sf.saxon.Configuration.setConfigurationProperty(Configuration.java:4387)

Superceded by #129.

You can try my patch with 3.0.7.BUILD-SNAPSHOT.

For reference, 3.0.6 doesn't work with Xalan either:

Have you tried 3.0.7.BUILD-SNAPSHOT @tan9?

[tan9]

@gregturn I haven't. We ended up removing Xalan from classpath (which is a transitive dependency of batik-dom).

However the change you made seems reasonable. 👍

i did recently upgrade the spring-ws version due to security issue cve-2019-3773 to 2.4.4 afterwards i started seeing the below startup error for Weblogic 12.1.1/Jdk 1.6 , Is there an way we can resolve or apply this patch to 2.4.x version ?

Caused By: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: TransformerFactory does not recognise attribute 'http://javax.xml.XMLConstants/property/accessExternalDTD'.

[gregturn]

Check 2.4.5.release.

[vetrip]

Yes i have tried that even 2.4.5 does not handle the IllegalArgumentException which leads to an runtime error during startup. Looks like TransformerFactoryImpl from JDK 6 does not support this property only JDK 7 does but the spring-ws 2.4 is compatible with JDK 6 as per the doc
