Generate an areatree file from Java

Hi -

I am trying to create some XMLCalabash (XProc) extensions that work with
Fop. One of them is that I would like to generate an areatree file from
a standard FO file.

Although not being excellent in Java, I managed to get this running. But
as soon as the FO file contains an instream-foreign-object, I get a
NullPointerException.

If I try do do the same with the Fop command line, everyting works fine,
so I think that the way I invoke Fop from Java is not correct. Maybe I
need to pass some handler for SVN objects to the FopFactoryBuilder, but
I neither know how to do that, nor if this is really the right approach.

The problem exists in Fop 2.2 and Fop 2.3. I am using JDK  1.8.

So the question is: *how do I use Fop to convert an FO file to an
areatree (and maybe an intermediate file too) from Java?*

Below is my Java code plus the top of the stacktrace.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

 

PDFVTTestCase.java has a example for fo to IF
