Re: XSLT debugger (was RE: .Net port of Cocoon)

[Brian Johnson]

Have you looked at Captor http://outerthought.net/captor.html? It works on 2.0.x, and can easily be modified to work on 2.1.

Hi Luca,

I don't use XSLT debuggers, I've just configured logkit to put all messages

produced by Xalan into a single log file.

Can you give me an example how you changed logkit.xconf to output Xalan
messages?

LogTransformer, as Antonio pointed out, could be useful too.

Not so sure, it's causing exceptions within the XSLT transformer, putting
the log transformer before or after the XSLT transformer doesn't do anything
useful.

Thanks,
Mark

Mark,

produced by Xalan into a single log file.

Nevertheless, there are a number of XSLT debuggers out there, which, if you
save the XML document before the XSLT stage into a file,
could be used to debug your XSLT... but I never tried them.

AFAIK, there is no single debugger like this, only a patchwork of

debuggers, one for XSLT, one for Java...

Where can I get hold of a XSLT debugger to use with cocoon? a lot of times
cocoon doesn't provide much debugging information when there is something
wrong with your stylesheets.

Granted, there is no debugger in Cocoon,

... and shoud not be: all IDEs as well as JDK has debuggers. Use them
remotely or start your servlet engine from under it - in either case you
can put breakpoints and debug your Java.

Vadim,

let's get this straight: since Cocoon is composed of many technologies, a
Java debugger alone cannot do the work.

I'd like to debug my XSLT, see the parameters' values as they flow from

the

sitemap to the XSLT, check every stage's XML output, set
breakpoints in Actions... and more: this is what an ideal Cocoon debugger
should do.

AFAIK, there is no single debugger like this, only a patchwork of

debuggers,

one for XSLT, one for Java...
