Goal

In Oracle FMW Infrastructure 12.2.1.4, after upgrading JDBC drivers to 19c as per the following Oracle documentation, some J2EE applications which are using other XML parsers implementations are throwing errors because of the change of the XML parser.

Upgrading and Using Latest Oracle 19c JDBC Drivers with WebLogic Server

Using ojdbc8-full/xmlparserv2_sans_jaxp_services.jar broke the application features related to XML parser.
After removing the library "xmlparserv2_sans_jaxp_services.jar" and the JDBC Driver 19c works fine with WLS default parser.

Is it mandatory to configure the parser "ojdbc8-full/xmlparserv2_sans_jaxp_services.jar" in the PRE_CLASSPATH or can it removed ?
