RE: [C2][Xalan2] Transformation failure if SAX events generated p rogramatically

[Davanum Srinivas <di...@yahoo.com>]

Sebastien,

Let me clarify, Here's that i did.

Step 1: Use StatusGenerator and serialize the output to FOO.XML.
Step 2: Use StatusGenerator and run a transform using FOO.XSL.
Step 3: Use FOO.XML from Step #1 and run a transform using FOO.XSL.

The output from Step #2 and Step #3 Should be identical in my opinion. That's what i meant.

Now my question to you is Should we change StatusGenerator code? Or should Xalan2 handle Step#2
and Step#3 in an identical fashion?????

Thanks,
dims
