RE: ClassPath for Java extensions??

For you information, I figured out what was the issue
with classpath and Java extensions to Xalan.

I spent days on that one!

The conclusion is
	Java extensions to Xalan are *not* working
	when xalan.jar, bsfengines.jar or bsf.jar
	are placed in $(JDK_HOME)/jre/lib/ext

	...because it seems that when in jre/lib/ext
	the Xalancode is not able to locate java classes that are
	not themselves in jre/lib/ext
	(even is they are in the java classpath).

(Note however that all other Xalan features are working fine
when in jre/lib/ext)

-> the solution is:

	* move Xalan out of jre/lib/ext and place it in the classpath
	* ...or move your extension classes in jre/lib/ext

Thanks for your responses,

	Philippe
