Subject: DOCBOOK: RE: DOCBOOK-APPS: Xalan 1.0.1 crashing with DocBook XML and DocBook XSL v1.13
I've been using Xerces 1.1.1 with Xalan 1.0.1 with pretty good success. The only problem is that stack traces do not seem to be very verbose/accurate. The getSystemId() error always seems to imply a problem with an ENTITY somewhere. So if I use XT or Saxon in the interum, are you saying that the FO generated by Norman's XSL is not properly understood by Apache's FOP? PDF, is of coarse, one of my end goals here. Do you know to what extent Norman's xsl:fo implements the XSL spec (i.e. tables, images, etc.)? And to what extent the FOP understands xsl:fo to properly map it to PDF? Thanks for your insight. I'm a newbie to the DocBook stuff. BTW. I get the same result using the v4.1 DTD. -Steve -----Original Message----- From: Colin Paul Adams [mailto:colin@colina.demon.co.uk] Sent: Sunday, June 18, 2000 7:16 PM To: Steven Maring Subject: Re: DOCBOOK-APPS: Xalan 1.0.1 crashing with DocBook XML v4.0 and DocBook XSL v1.13 >>>>> "Steven" == Steven Maring <Steven.Maring@trcinc.com> writes: Steven> XSL or something in Xalan.

I've tried against test.xml in the docbook xsl test directory, and get the following: ======== Parsing file:/home/colin/docbook/xhtml/docbook.xsl ========== Parse of file:/home/colin/docbook/xhtml/docbook.xsl took 6557 milliseconds ========= Parsing test.xml ========== file:/usr/lib/sgml/dbpoolx.mod; Line 1740; Column 3 XSL Error: Could not parse test.xml document! XSLT: The markup declarations contained or pointed to by the document type declaration must be well-formed. Xalan: was not successful. XSLProcessor: done The line in question in dbpoolx.mod is just a harmless (?) <!ENTITY ... > so it looks flakey to me too. I've also been trying this with xt (works, but I'm not sure about the chunking), and fop (doesn't work - looks like fop isn't up-to-date) -- Colin Paul Adams Preston Lancashire
