BTW: I *have* to call $self->SUPER::get_styles for not providing any
style at all. Returning [] or undef does not work, throwing an
exception neither, the only thing is SUPER::get_styles since that one
calls into an XS getstyle function witch seems to work. This looks
very strange to me and definitely looks like an unnecessary
restriction (bug?). (Using AxKit CVS from a few weeks ago.)

No problem-- sorry you had to resort to such a one-sided conversation :-) Just to follow up, though: you're right, you should be using AxContentProvider instead of AxProvider. I'll post the details (that a crappy SMTP host precluded me from sending yesterday) below: Providers come in two flavors: Content Providers for fetching source of the XML content to be transformed/delivered, and Style Providers for fetching the source of the stylesheets that will be applied during the various transformation steps. By default, the Provider::File class (that grabs data from files on disk) is used for both. When overriding the default Provider you have a choice of three configuration directives to control behavior: 1) AxContentProvider -- this sets the class that will be used to select the source XML (and dependencies) for the content associated w/ the current request. 2) AxStyleProvider -- this sets the Provider class for the stylesheet documents (and dependencies) for the current set of transformations. 3) AxProvider -- this sets *both* the Style Provider and Content Provider to the same class (meaning that the same class has to be prepared to return both the source content and the stylesheet content). I suspect that your Edu::Provider::Student class is expecting to return only the content source (not the stylesheet source as well) so you should use the AxContentProvider directive instead of AxProvider. Note that the reason you only see the error when an AxAddProcessor directive is present is that, with that directive in place, plus the use of AxProvider (rather than AxContentProvider) AxKit is trying to use your Edu::Provider::Student to fetch the source for the given stylesheet and by having a transforation defined you expose the fact that your Provider was meant only to return the base content not the stylesheet data. -kip - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Provider Problems
Sorry for the mail spam yall.
ended up digging through the source for
package Apache::AxKit::Provider::File;
...
sub get_strref {
...
throw Apache::AxKit::Exception::IO(
-text => "$self->{file} is a directory - please overload File
provider and use AxContentProvider option");
...
}
I think my problem was that my configuration was using
AxProvider My::Provider
instead of
AxContentProvider My::Provider
Changed that and now it works.

Re: Provider Problems
I took a closer look at the error log. It appears that the Provider is trying to handle the request for the stylesheet even though the request is outside of the location that it is supposed be handling, so, perhaps more relevant question. How do you get your provider to ignore requests for stuff it shouldn't be handling in the first place. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I thought of that, but when I test the same stylesheet by using an
on-disk version of the xml file the provider is generating and specify
the stylesheet either with the
AxAddProcessor text/xsl /xslt/user.xsl
or by adding the specification in via the xml header stylesheet
directive it works, without errors..
the stylesheet isn't changing, just not using the provider, which also
works by itself.. ie: I can browse to the provided file, as long as I
don't try to apply a stylesheet.
Attaching the stylesheet ..
