    * the XMLInputFactory implementation class to load:
+   * </p>
+   * <ul>
+   * <li>
    *   Use the javax.xml.stream.XMLInputFactory system property.
+   * </li>
+   * <li>
    *   Use the properties file "lib/stax.properties" in the JRE directory.
    *     This configuration file is in standard java.util.Properties format
    *     and contains the fully qualified name of the implementation class
    *     with the key being the system property defined above.
-   *   Use the Services API (as detailed in the JAR specification), if available,
-   *     to determine the classname. The Services API will look for a classname
-   *     in the file META-INF/services/javax.xml.stream.XMLInputFactory in jars
-   *     available to the runtime.
-   *   Platform default XMLInputFactory instance.
-   *
+   * </li>
+   * <li>
+   *   Use the service-provider loading facilities, defined by the
+   *   {@link java.util.ServiceLoader} class, to attempt to locate and load an
+   *   implementation of the service.
+   * </li>
+   * <li>
+   * Otherwise, the system-default implementation is returned.
+   * </li>
+   * </ul>
+   * <p>
    *   Once an application has obtained a reference to a XMLInputFactory it
    *   can use the factory to configure and obtain stream instances.
