Before I go on, let me say I turned my XSLT-transformed document into a string and then handed it to Fop.
XML tree -> Xalan transform handler -> serialize -> string -> Fop However, this is silly. It would be more intelligent to be able to send Sax events to Fop. I found a class in the Fop source that handles it, but it seems to care about Jim Clark's XML handlers. I use the Apache XML code and would rather stick with those. I plan on looking into the Fop content handler that claims need of Clark's stuff and see if it really cares, or finding another content handler, or creating a regular Sax content handler that can talk to Fop. Perhaps Cocoon has one since you can have PDF generated at the end of a Cocoon pipeline. Does anyone know of one that already exists? --- Jim Wright <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Thanks a lot! > > jw > > -----Original Message----- > From: Clute, Andrew [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Monday, November 12, 2001 1:13 PM > To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED] ' > Subject: RE: Question on XSLTInputHandler > > > Sure... > Attached is a new FOInputHandler.java file. > As you can see all I did was add a new method to set a String > input-source, > and to get an InputSource that was fed from a StringReader. > > Let me know if you have any questions. > > -----Original Message----- > From: Jim Wright > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: 11/12/2001 2:02 PM > Subject: RE: Question on XSLTInputHandler > Andrew: > > For me, at least, that example would be greatly appreciated.
