[jira] Commented: (XALANJ-77) factory.newTemplates() returns null after DOMSource error

Bernie Durfee commented on XALANJ-77:
-------------------------------------

I encountered the same problem. I'm don't agree that this is an 'edge condition' as it's not explicit that an ErrorListener should always be set when using a TransformerFactory.

> // Attempt to build templates from known-bad stylesheet
> // Note SAX, Stream sources have error but still build valid Templates object
> templates = factory.newTemplates(new DOMSource(xslNode));
> BUG templates object returned is null; should have either been a valid Templates 
> object or thrown an exception.  See the Javadoc for this method; it explicitly 
> states it will never return null.
> Note that this particular xsl error is reported as fatalError, however similar 
> tests with a SAXSource or StreamSource work fine, and the Templates object can 
> even be used to perform transformations.
