Re: Stylesheet Location information

[Paul Winder <pw...@arbortext.com>]

Never mind...

I figured out that the TransformerException is wrapping a SAXParseException 
which has the location information.

And I found out that there's more included in the stylesheet than I ever 
suspected...

Locator stack in Xalan C 1.1

[Brian Quinlan <Br...@ActiveState.com>]

Hi,

This is a Xalan C 1.1. question:

Why is a stack necessary to hold the Locator object in
StylesheetConstructionContext/StylesheetHandler? And, assuming that this is
due to some sort of import/include problem, why doesn't StylesheetHandler
just keep track of the Locator itself?
