xsl:import problem

["Sree P.N. Sreeram" <ps...@cas.org>]

Hello

There seems to be a bug in resolving the relative URI when
using xsl:import. I am including the relevant xml and xsl
file. 

Following are the details of my system:

SUN Solaris 2.6 using J2SE 1.2.2 JVM
xalan-j_1_2

In order to reproduce the bug:

(1) Go to xalan/samples/PureSAX
(2) Modify foo.xml as follows:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<foo>
  <doc>Hello</doc>
  <txt>Hello</txt>
</foo>


(3) Modify foo.xsl as follows:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="1.0">
<xsl:import href="bar.xsl"/>
  <xsl:template match="/">
    <xsl:apply-templates />
  </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

(4)Add a file named bar.xsl (this is imported in foo.xsl)
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="1.0">
  <xsl:template match="txt">
    <txtout><xsl:value-of select="."/></txtout>
  </xsl:template>
  <xsl:template match="doc">
    <docout><xsl:value-of select="."/></docout>
  </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

(5) Compile PureSAX.java and run "java PureSAX". I'm getting
the following error.

java PureSAX
file:/home/myself/xalan/samples/bar.xsl; Line 0; Column 0
Exception in thread "main" org.xml.sax.SAXParseException:

Question: Why is the xalan parser looking for bar.xsl in
..../xalan/samples instead of in ..../xalan/samples/PureSAX?
According to the spec (XSLT 2.6.2) ""A relative URI is
resolved relative to the base URI of the xsl:import element"
Is this a bug in xalan?

Thanks
