XSLT transformation Question?

[borg borg <bo...@hotmail.com>]

I just recently moved to Xalan Java 2 and found my xslt transformation 
stopped working.
What i'm trying to do is the following:
1.  Take a xml string ( not a file )
2.  Table a xslt file path
3.  Convert it into a html file which I use to return.

Here is my original code under Xalan Java 1:

import java.io.StringWriter;
import java.io.PrintWriter;
import java.io.StringReader;

import org.xml.sax.SAXException;
import org.apache.xalan.xslt.XSLTProcessorFactory;
import org.apache.xalan.xslt.XSLTInputSource;
import org.apache.xalan.xslt.XSLTResultTarget;
import org.apache.xalan.xslt.XSLTProcessor;

public class XSLTransformation
{

  XSLTProcessor _Processor 									= null;
  XSLTResultTarget _Target 									= null;

  StringWriter _SWriter 										= null;
  PrintWriter _PWriter 											= null;

  public XSLTransformation()
  {
  }

  public String Transformation( String strXML, String strXSLFile )
  {
    try
    {
      _SWriter = new StringWriter();
      _PWriter = new PrintWriter( _SWriter, false );

      _Processor = XSLTProcessorFactory.getProcessor();
      StringReader _SReader = new StringReader( strXML );

      _Processor.process( new XSLTInputSource( _SReader ),
                          new XSLTInputSource( strXSLFile ),
                          new XSLTResultTarget( _PWriter ));

      return _SWriter.toString();

		}
    catch( Exception err )
    {
      System.err.println( err );
      err.printStackTrace();

      return null;
    }
  }

}

Which worked good.  Now with Xalan Java 2 I noticed that some of the classes 
are gone and been replaced with Trax
Here is my implementation.  Just wondering if this seems correct.

Thanks

import java.io.StringWriter;
import java.io.PrintWriter;
import java.io.StringReader;

import javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory;
import javax.xml.transform.Transformer;
import javax.xml.transform.stream.StreamSource;
import javax.xml.transform.stream.StreamResult;
import javax.xml.transform.TransformerException;
import javax.xml.transform.TransformerConfigurationException;

public class XalanXSLT
{

  StringWriter _SWriter 										= null;
  PrintWriter _PWriter 											= null;

  public XalanXSLT()
  {
  }

  public String Transformation( String strXML, String strXSLFile )
  {
    try
    {
      _SWriter = new StringWriter();
      _PWriter = new PrintWriter( _SWriter, false );

			TransformerFactory tFactory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
			Transformer transformer = tFactory.newTransformer( new 
StreamSource(strXSLFile));

      StringReader _SReader = new StringReader( strXML );

			transformer.transform( new StreamSource(_SReader),
			                       new StreamResult( _SWriter ));


      return _SWriter.toString();

		}
    catch( Exception err )
    {
      System.err.println( err );
      err.printStackTrace();

      return null;
    }
  }

}

Problem with running a xalan extension example

[Vanessa D Johnson <va...@jpl.nasa.gov>]

I am having an issue trying to run the  3-java-namespace example with the
extensions - I get the following error:


XSLT Error (javax.xml.transform.TransformerException): IntDate


Also, I haven't seen an indication towards any reference to these in
classes in a classpath or similar environment variable.  How does this work
exactly?


Thanks,

Vanessa
