RE: Getting FOP running on Mac OS X
It is possible the latest StuffIt Expanders work properly for filenames longer than 31 chars but it is a known problem. OS X can use much longer filenames. I include the following when I put up archives: MacOSX Note: Don't use Stuffit to expand the archive. Use the following shell command instead: tar -xzf source.tar.gz gunzip should work for a zip file also (I think). Clay Leeds wrote: The files were ZIP'd, and when they were unZIP'd using Stuffit Expander, the avalon JAR file's long filename was changed from: avalon-framework-cvs-20020315.jar to: avalon-framework-cvs-20020315.j Adding ar at the end of that filename, resolved the problem, and I am able to run FOP on my Mac. Unfortunately, it took a few days to figure out this problem. First, thanks for the input. I'll be glad to update the FAQ, but I am a little confused about what to put into it. The file name was truncated after 31 characters, which is too odd of a number to seem to have been done on purpose by StuffIt. What caused the filename truncation? Without understanding that, I am not sure how to help. Java Home. Many Java applications require the identification of a Java Home directory during installation. The equivalent on Mac OS X should always be /Library/Java/Home. This is actually a symbolic link to the current installed J2SE version, and allows access to the bin subdirectory where command line tools such as java, javac, etc. exist as expected. The I am not a Mac guy, so please excuse my ignorance. Is this something that Mac people should already know? In other words, I wonder whether it is even appropriate to address this in FOP doc as it is primarily a sysadmin issue, or at least a Mac or Java issue. Also, what if /Library/Java/Home points to a 1.1 or 1.2 java runtime? If we tell the user to use that, then FOP doesn't work. Again, I am not sure what to recommend here.

Re: problem building on macosx/SOLVED
I was able to build fop on macosx after removing an older version of fop.jar from /Library/Java/Extensions. The symptom was that the first taskdef in the ant build file was failing: BUILD FAILED /Users/stephen/apache/xml-fop/build.xml:273: taskdef class org.apache.fop.tools.anttasks.SerializeHyphPattern cannot be found -- -s - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
problems with keep-with-next
keep-with-next still doesn't work on 0.20.3 I tried to add a comment to: http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=5434 but i couldn't figure out how (probably too late at night :-) Anyway there is a very simple test case here: http://concord.org/~stephen/fop-bugs/keep-with-next-bug.fo the testcase keep-with-next-bug.fo references the image: http://concord.org/~stephen/fop-bugs/ccprobe-interface-blockdiag.png The problem is very annoying when I have a figure with a title on one page and the image on the next. -- -s - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

What happens if you remove hyphenation from this line target name=package depends=compile,hyphenation in build.xml? same error: init: [echo] --- Fop 0.20.3 [1999-2002] BUILD FAILED /Users/stephen/apache/xml-fop/build.xml:272: taskdef class org.apache.fop.tools.anttasks.SerializeHyphPattern cannot be found If I comment out line 272: !-- taskdef name=serHyph classname=org.apache.fop.tools.anttasks.SerializeHyphPattern/ -- taskdef name=xslt classname=org.apache.fop.tools.anttasks.Xslt/ then it dies on the next taskdef on line 273 -- -s - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: problem building on macosx
Thanks for the suggestion, but the same problem occurs. In an earlier mail you said you had this line in your shell profile: export ANT_HOME=/Users/stephen/devtools/jakarta-ant-1.4.1 Maybe that is causing ant to look for tasks in that directory rather than in the fop lib? Try setting ANT_HOME to /Users/stephen/apache/xml-fop/lib or wherever the buildtools.jar is.

Re: problem building on macosx
Hi Jim, I am using the binary distribution of Fop regularly.
