beginner (and windows) question
Hello,
I tried to use Microsofts entry point for Java when invoking fop, and thus
replaced java by jview in Fop.bat.
May be Im doing something stupid here but Im not a developer, just a user
of Java/fop, so it should be Ok, isnit ?
When I ran fop on docs/examples/fo/simple.fo, I got the following problem :
jview -cp
build\fop.jar;lib\batik.jar;lib\xalan-2.0.0.jar;lib\xerces-1.2.3.jar;lib\ava
lon-framework-4.0.jar;lib\logkit-1.0.jar;lib\jimi-1.0.jar
org.apache.fop.apps.
Fop docs\examples\fo\simple.fo simple.pdf
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: java/io/File: method
getParentFile()Ljava/io/File;
not found
at org/apache/fop/apps/Options.setCommandLineOptions
at org/apache/fop/apps/CommandLineStarter.<init>
at org/apache/fop/apps/CommandLineOptions.getStarter
at org/apache/fop/apps/Fop.main
ERREUR : java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: java/io/File: method
getParentFile()Ljava/
io/File; not found
Is it impossible to run fop this way ?
Is it another example of non portable java application (probably because of
issues on Windows side) ?
Thanks for you help,
Joël Conraud

Thanks.
They need to update "xslfoRef.pdf" in the FOP distribution.

FOP conforms to the latest specs - thus your 'master-name' in 'page-sequence' should be replaced with 'master-reference'. This holds true for other objects as
well, take a look at FOP release notes:

You can implement it yourself. Rip some code from Xalan or
Cocoon which extracts the stylesheet PI from the XML and
the logic to invoke the transformation, and pipe the
result to a FOP driver.
Hava fun!

XML parsing

Any chance that FOP will ever use the stylesheet specified in the XML
file to peform the XSLT?
Let's get bold.
Posted by Alastair Growcott <al...@pipstechnology.co.uk>.
The XML line
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl"
href="file:///D:/XML/ccr_fo.xsl"?>
tells IE 6.0 to run the XSL file D:/XML/ccr_fo.xsl on the current XML
file and display the output (we are talking pure client-side here).
Is there a line that could be added to an XML file that would trigger a
piece of javascript or some sort of piece of java code? You can tell I'm
not a java developer. For example, maybe if the file type was changed to
e.g. "bin/java" or something. The java script could then act as a
wrapper for the entire FOP process of running the stylesheet and
converting to PDF.
I know this idea may be a bit ahead of its time, but wouldn't it be
nice...
If I find anything on this topic, do any of you want to know about it?
Page sequence error
Posted by Alastair Growcott <al...@pipstechnology.co.uk>.
When running FOP on my XML document via XSL, I get the following error:
[ERROR]: org.apache.fop.apps.FOPException: 'master-reference' for
'fo:page-sequence'matches no 'simple-page-master' or
'page-sequence-master'
which is odd since according to all the documentation I can find, there
is no master-reference property for a page-sequence object. The
master-name property is equal to the master-name specified when I
defined my simple-page-master object.
My XSL looks like:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet

AFAIK jview is JDK 1.1 only and FOP needs at least JDK1.2

I think yes ...
Why don't you use JDK/JRE from Sun (or IBM)

No, it's another example that Microsoft doesn't like Java ;-)
