markers in inline not working 0.94

[Lo...@log-net.com]

I'm in the middle of migrating from 0.20.3 to 0.94 and I ran into the 
following issue...

We are currently using dynamically-generated markers for running headers 
in our reports by embedding them in inlines so we can massage the 
formatting.  For example, this is our current code (snipped):


<fo:table-cell>
<fo:block>
<fo:inline font-size="7pt" color="black" font-weight="normal" 
white-space-collapse="true">
        <xsl:for-each select="@*[starts-with(name(.),'marker__')]">
                <fo:inline><fo:marker 
marker-class-name="{name(.)}"><xsl:value-of 
select="."/></fo:marker></fo:inline>
        </xsl:for-each>
</fo:inline>
</fo:block>
...

I don't remember what the inner inline was for, but the outer one forces 
the font and ws handling.

As of 0.94, this no longer works as expected.  I get no errors, but also 
no marker data.  If I remove the inlines, it will work, but the font and 
ws are not what we want.  Is there another way or am I doing something 
wrong.

With FOP 0.20.x, it was necessary to surround marker-content with an  
inline to force properties to the same values as the retrieve-marker.
In FOP Trunk, marker-property inheritance is properly implemented, so  
at least this workaround should no longer be necessary. If you  
specify the desired font and white-space-handling properties on the  
fo:retrieve-marker, that should be enough.

OTOH, this still won't solve your issue... In FOP 0.94 markers in  
inlines were not yet implemented, but this should be fixed in the  
trunk (and hence the upcoming 0.95 release). Can you try out the  
trunk, and see if that solves your problem?


HTH!
