Description

CXF 2.7.13 introduced org.apache.cxf.binding.soap.interceptor.ReadHeadersInterceptor$HeadersProcessor which is is invoking javax.xml.stream.XMLEventFactory.newFactory()

This causes problems with WebSphere 7, as IBM seems to have supplied some older version of XMLEventFactory which lacks the method newFactory(). There is newInstance(), which would work - I don't see the difference between both methods.

Could CXF use newInstance() to support WebSphere 7? I am currently stuck with CXF 2.7.12 because of this.

Thanks!
