Xalan in style task does not use xmlcatalog for document()-function

[Christian Wolfgang Hujer]

Hello dear list members,


I am using Ant 1.5Beta1 with Xalan 2.3.1 and Xerces .

I have defined an XML Catalog this way:
<project default="all" basedir=".">
    <xmlcatalog id="generalcatalog">
        <dtd
            publicId="-//W3C//DTD XHTML Basic 1.0//EN"
            location="src/dtds/xhtml-basic/xhtml-basic10.dtd"
        />
        <dtd
            publicId="-//W3C//DTD XHTML Stylesheets 1.0//EN"
            location="src/dtds/xhtml-modularization/DTD/xhtml-style-1.mod"
        />
        <dtd
            publicId="-//W3C//ELEMENTS Module Qualified Names Template 1.0//EN"
            location="src/dtds/xhtml-modularization/DTD/templates/template-qname-1.mod"
        />
        <!-- ... -->
    </xmlcatalog>
    <!-- ... -->

I apply the xmlvalidate task this way:
    <target
        name       ="validateDest"
        description="Validiert die generierten Dateien."
        depends    ="update, transform"
    >
        <xmlvalidate warn="no">
            <xmlcatalog refid="generalcatalog" />
            <fileset dir="${dest/htdocs}">
                <include name="**/*.html"/>
                <include name="**/*.svg"/>
            </fileset>
        </xmlvalidate>
    </target>

This works fine. All entities are resolved via the xml catalog, not via the system 
identifier.

I apply the style task this way:
    <target
        name       ="transform"
        description="Generiert die HTML-Dateien."
        depends    ="validateSource, update, init"
    >
        <style
            basedir="${source/htdocs}"
            destdir="${dest/htdocs}"
            style="${source}/tools/transform.xsl"
            includes="**/*.html"
        >
            <xmlcatalog refid="generalcatalog" />
        </style>
        <!-- ... -->
    </target>

This fails.
The transformation references other files using the document() functions. The entities 
of the files referenced by the document() functions
are not resolved via the xml catalog, but via their system identifiers.

I think this is a bug.
I do not know wether this is a bug in Ant or the XML Parser in use (Xerces 2.0.1) or 
the Xalan version in use (Xalan 2.3.1).

Has anyone else seen this problem?
Does someone know a solution?
Am I doing something wrong?


Greetings and thanks for your time
