creating XML-Input for Xalan from SAX-Events

[Gregor Bornemann <gb...@stardivision.de>]

Hy,

how can i create the XML-Input for XALAN from SAX-Events ?
My suggestion is it, to use the "FormatterToDOM" to accept the SAX-Events and 
then create a "XSLTInputSource" from the DOM-Document.

But how can i use the "FormatterToDOM" ? He need a XalanDocument (wich is 
virtual) and a XalanElement (for what ?) .

Or is there an other way ?

Hy,

i've "resolved" the problem :

// ---- setting up some stuff
	FormatterToUnoBridge *fToU;	
	XalanDocument *mDoc;
	mDoc=theParserLiaison->createDocument();
	fToDOM=new FormatterToDOM(mDoc,NULL);
	/*
		-> connecting the FormatterToDOM to the external XMLParser
		    (expat in my 	case)
		-> start Parsing the XML
	*/
// ----- generate the XSLTInputSource for the XML-file (after endDocument 
//	  call from the external parser)
	//create XalanInputSource from the DOM-Tree
	theInputSource=new XSLTTInputSource(
		(XalanNode*)(fToDOM->getDocument())->getDocumentElement());

IMHO this is the only way to generate XML-input for the processor from an 
external XML parser.

Yes.  In XalanJ1, XSLTProcessor can act directly as a SAX
DocumentHandler or LexicalHandler which handle events from your SAX
event generator.  See the Pipe or PureSAX examples.

Come back to this list if you have problems with the examples or
specific questions.
