Hi Gary,
Thanks for review comments, for Xalan-J XSLT 3.0 RC4.
IMHO, I get all Xalan-J XSLT 3.0 alpha1 tests passing on Windows host,
on my local.
But I'm very keen to help try to solve these issues, that you're
getting on your workstation.
To start with, I'd request you to please, provide me specific
information about one of the XSL test, i.e
FnCollectionTests->xslFnCollectionTest1 that you've run, so that I
shall be able to fix the defect wrt this issue correctly.
Following are the steps that I request you to please do, and provide
little information wrt this,
>From within the folder
xalan-j_xslt3.0_mvn\src\test\resources\fn_collection please copy the
files test1.xsl and all .xml, .json and .txt documents to a specific
folder. I've copied all these file on my local at location,
d:\xslt\debug for debugging this issue.
I then run the following command from within Eclipse development IDE,
on my local,
java org.apache.xalan.xslt.Process -in d:\xslt\test1.xsl -xsl
d:\xslt\test1.xsl -param base-dir file:/d:/xslt/debug/ -out
d:\xslt\debug\test1.out [1]
I request you to please run the command [1], and some how share with
me (perhaps as file attachment within a jira issue) the XSL
transformation result document test1.out without changing anything
within that, so that I may inspect XSL transformation result document
and try to provide a fix for this XSL test case defect.
Wrt the Apache Xerces-J issue that you've mentioned, I agree with you
that, we should use a valid released Xerces-J jar while trying to
release Xalan-J version.
I've actually added the jar file xercesImpl-2.12.3_alpha.jar, within
Xalan-J's XSLT 3.0 development repos, for development purposes. If you
may and others agree, for Xalan-J's XSLT 3.0 alpha1 release, we may
rename this Xerces-J jar to xercesImpl-2.12.3_dev.jar and might little
later add Xerces-J release proper jar file.
