[Bug xml/25556] New: Eclipse fails to start with SAX parse exceptions

[psj at harker dot dyndns dot org]

As of Classpath CVS 20051224, Eclipse 3.1.1 fails to start for me with Cacao or
JamVM due to a number of different SAX parse exceptions. This looks to happen
when parsing plugin manifests.

Examples from the Eclipse log (full log will be attached) include:

MESSAGE Could not parse plug-in manifest for
"address@hidden/org.eclipse.ant.ui_3.1.1.jar". Any contributed extensions and
extension points will be ignored.
!STACK 0
org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: need whitespace between attributes
   at gnu.xml.stream.SAXParser.parse (SAXParser.java:606)
   at javax.xml.parsers.SAXParser.parse (SAXParser.java:273)
   at org.eclipse.core.internal.registry.ExtensionsParser.parseManifest
(ExtensionsParser.java:375)

!MESSAGE Could not parse plug-in manifest for
"address@hidden/org.eclipse.pde.build_3.1.0/". Any contributed extensions and
extension points will be ignored.
!STACK 0
org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: EOF before required string: "antTask"

   at org.eclipse.core.internal.registry.ExtensionsParser.parseManifest
(ExtensionsParser.java:375)

!MESSAGE Could not parse plug-in manifest for
"address@hidden/org.eclipse.jdt.junit_3.1.1/". Any contributed extensions and
extension points will be ignored.

   at org.eclipse.core.internal.registry.ExtensionsParser.parseManifest
(ExtensionsParser.java:375)

etc.

Same Eclipse starts under Classpath CVS 20051223 without error.
