Bridging to deprecated Xerces DOM_Document

Hi,

I'm attempting to port an old Xalan-based app to Xalan 1.8 + Xerces 2.5.0. I am providing a deprecated Xerces DOM_Document to the Xalan transformer, using the following idiom:

  DOM_Document xercesDoc = ...;
  XercesDOMSupport support;
  XercesParserLiaison liaison(support);
  XalanDocument* xalanDoc = liaison.createDocument(xercesDoc, false, false);
  XSLTInputSource in(xalanDoc);
  ostrstream out = ...;
  XalanTransformer transformer = ...;
  transformer.transform(in, "mystylesheet.xsl", out);

This results in a RuntimeException "The primary document entity could not be opened".

I am running on Solaris and have built Xalan with -DXALAN_BUILD_DEPRECATED_DOM_BRIDGE.

Any insights into this problem would be appreciated.

--Mike

You should take a look at the ParsedSourceWrappers sample, which does
exactly what you're trying to achieve.

Thanks!
