JBoss AS 4.0.5.CR1 does not include jaxen, which is required for using Hibernate XML mapping
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBAS-3736
                 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS-3736
             Project: JBoss Application Server
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
          Components: ClassLoading
    Affects Versions: JBossAS-4.0.5.CR1
         Environment: SUSE Linux 10.0, Sun JRE 1.5.0_05-b05
            Reporter: Don Smith
         Assigned To: Scott M Stark
             Fix For: JBossAS-4.0.5.GA


Hibernate XML mapping requires using the org.dom4j.Document, as shown in this example:

		org.dom4j.Document document = saxReader.read(inputXML);

		List users = document.selectNodes("//product");

		try {

			Session session = HibernateUtil.sessionFactory.openSession();

			Transaction transaction = session.beginTransaction();
			Session dom4jSession = session.openSession(EntityMode.DOM4J);

			Iterator iter = users.iterator();
			while (iter.hasNext()) {

				Object next = iter.next();
				dom4jSession.saveOrUpdate("demo.Product", next );

			}// end while
			transaction.commit();
			session.close();

If any other type of Document is used for the dom4jSession.saveOrUpdate() call, it throws an exception.

Using SAXReader.read() throws a NoClassDefFound error using JBoss 4.0.5.CR1, unless jaxen (jaxen-1.1-beta-7.jar from the Hibernate 3.2.cr4 download) is added the the server configuration's lib directory.

I submit that jaxen is required to use the XML Mapping facility of Hibernate, and that it's missing from JBoss 4.0.5.CR1.
