The other user was talking about a crash, not about an error message. I
did not say that setting the system ID would result in a successful
transformation.
If you've duplicated the code from the use case in your program, and it
still does not work, please verify the following:
1. You've patched Microsoft's library as we suggest, or you've rebuilt
the binaries yourselves. The patches are explained on the very first
page of the documentation.
2. You're using the same service pack as we're using, which is SP 3.
Microsoft does not guarantee compatibility between service packs, and my
experience has been that there can be problems.
3. You're using the correct run-time libraries in your application
(multithreaded DLL, or debug multithreaded DLL)
If you continue to have problems, post a bug in Bugzilla, and, if I can
reproduce it, I will fix it promptly. You'll need to include the source
code to reproduce the problem and a sample set of inputs. Also, please
include the stack trace from the debugger for the virtual function call.
If you want to wrap a pre-parsed XalanSourceTreeDocument instance for input
to XalanTransformer, you'll need to get the latest code from CVS and
rebuild the binaries yourself. There is a new class which will do exactly
what XercesDOMWrapperParsedSource, only for an instance of
XalanSourceTreeDocument. I would suggest you get yourselves set up for CVS
access so you can always build the latest code, as that's how you'll get
any bug fixes.

Hi Dave,
I tried setting the SystemId but that didn't help - I still get the same
error message:
Fatal Error at (file , line 0, column 0): An exception occured!
Type:RuntimeExce
ption, Message:The primary document entity could not be opened.
Id=library.xml
XalanError:
An exception occured! Type:RuntimeException, Message:The primary document
entity
could not be opened. Id=library.xmlPress any key to continue
The only difference is the ** Id = library.xml **, which was just ** Id =
0 **, when I was doing the same thing without setting the SystemId.
When I apply the ussage pattern that you are pointing to in your email, the
program crashes again but it gets to the point where it outputs the
transformaiton and after that Visual C announces a debug error stating that
a pure virtual function has been called..
You talk about "the latest code" which is capable of feeding a
XalanSourceTree into the transformer. Are you refering to Xalan 1.3, or
something that is not released yet? Is there a way that I get this code? If
not, please confirm that the impossibility to feed a memory representation
of an xml file - would it be a wrapped Xerces DOM, or a XalanSourceTree -
is a known bug and there is no way for this to be accomplished. We need to
prove this to ourselves, so that we can start pursuing other options. It is
all about having multiple xml files, which need to be fed to the
transformer as a whole - we were trying to accomplish this by parsing each
file separately and then using the Xerces/Xalan Node classes' tree
manipulation functionallity to merge them all into a single DOM tree, and
feed it to the transformer. Yet, we got stuck while trying to feed just a
single XSLTInputSource, which is instantiated with a Node.
Your help and patience are greatly appreciated,
Sincerely,
Iavor Trifonov

Again, a quick examination of the code should explain this.
XalanDefaultParsedSource wraps a XalanSourceTree instance and a few other
things needed to do a transformation using an instance of XalanTransformer.

Wrapping the Xerces DOM as I described in my previous reply to you, and is
described in the use-case crashes? That's indeed a bug, but it certainly
worked when we did the release. Please verify you did the following:
http://xml.apache.org/xalan-c/usagepatterns.html#xercesdomwrapperparsedsource
You can now, with the latest source code, wrap a previous built
XalanSourceTree instance for input to a XalanTransformer instance.
Did you try setting the system ID on the XSLTInputSource as I suggested?
That won't fix the problem that you cannot transform from a XalanNode using
an instance of XalanTransformer, but it should cure the crash.

I'm not sure what you mean by "honor", but this is absolutely not true.
The crash is a result of a bug which has been fixed. The failure is
because XalanTransformer was not designed to take a raw DOM as input.

OK then, what is the difference between a XalanSourceTree and a
XalanDefaultParsedSource?
I am looking for a way to feed a DOM (Xerces or Xalan) into the transformer
somehow. The recommended wrapping of the XercesDOM (and the XalanDOM for
that matter) crashes the transformer, always! A parsed source transform
works fine. So what is that difference?
We believe the wrapped DOM's, into XalanDocuments, are failing because the
XalanDocuments really do not honor all the methods of the base XalanNode
class.
And also, David you've been a great help, thanks for you patience. - amo

This should be fairly obvious from the source code. The XalanDOM classes
are the abstract base classes for Xalan's source tree. XalanSourceTree is
an implementation of those abstract base classes.
