Problem with Java Extension Function Namespace

[Sorry about the last post. One of the problems of replying to an email.]

I have been having some problems with the Java namespace for Extension Functions.

When did xmlns:java="http://xml.apache.org/xalan/java" become the standard for Xalan? i.e. when did xmlns:java="http://xml.apache.org/xslt/java" become backward compatible?

On my machine, l get a ClassNotFoundException when trying to call a Java extension function using /xalan/java. However, l do not get this exception when using /xslt/java.

Sytem.out of the version of org.apache.xalan.Version class produces:

Xalan = Xalan Java 2.6.0

when using the same classpath as the code which requests a XSLT transformation. A colleague and l are meant to have the same configuration, but when he runs the XSLT transformation he is able to use /xalan/java. However, l can only execute using /xslt/java.

I am away from work at present, but tomorrow l will try to work out the products that ship with Xalan. Off the top of my head, on our project
there is:

Eclipse (2.3.1) plugin for xml (we were running our Java code through the IDE, and so this could have an influence)

weblogic.jar (8.1 Server)

JDK 1.4.2

Ant (l cannot remember if it is on the classpath)

I reckon the answer to the question above should answer which version must be on the classpath.

Thanks.

Arvind.
