That's excactly the kind of problems I'm also having. I was
using DOM input with Xalan 1.1 and ran into problems with
version 1.2 (see also older postings).
The samples didn't helped me a lot either, because I couldn't
find the interesting part.
Somebody mentioned, that the xalan/c/test directory contains
some hints how to implement DOM intput. That's something I will
give a closer look, as soon as I find the time.
I'm currently working around this problem by serializing the DOM
to a stream and transform from there as follows:
std::strstream xmlStream;
DOMSerializerFormatTarget* tgt = new DOMSerializerFormatTarget(xmlStream);
DOMSerializer* ser = new DOMSerializer();
ser->serialize(tgt, m_doc);
XalanTransformer::initialize();
XSLTInputSource domIn(&xmlStream);
XSLTInputSource theXsl(xslFile);
XalanDOMString target(outFile);
std::ofstream outStream;
outStream.open(outFile);
XalanTransformer theXalanTransformer;
theXalanTransformer.transform(domIn, theXsl, outStream);
I'm using the DOMSerializer class from Evert Haasdijk

for that purpose.

Subject: Re: DOM Input woes
The usage pattern doc was what I was using. Unfortuneatly it stops after
the XSLTInputSource. The TraceListen sample doesn't use a Xerces DOM so
mixing the two has given mysterious crashes and I'm not sure as to what does
what. If anybody has working Xerces DOM conversion, then I would like to
see it.
