I'm having a rough time getting the pipeDocument extension working.  I'm trying to replicate the 2nd variation given at
 
 
where an otherwise empty stylesheet is used to coordinate transformations.
 
The problem is that the web page isn't specific on several crucial points.
 
For example, the page states that, "there is no XML input document or output document for the primary transformation," yet the primary transformation is invoked by calling "java org.apache.xalan.xslt.Process -in printbook.xml -param source printbook.xml -param target xalanbook.fo"  It would seem from the command that "printbook.xml" is the XML input document.
 
I think the correct command would be something along the lines of "java org.apache.xalan.xslt.Process -style foo.xsl -param source printbook.xml -param target xalanbook.fo", where "foo.xsl" is the name of the file containing the XSL code listed with that example.
 
On the other hand I'm new to XSL extensions, so I'm not really sure at all, which goes back to my original point - the documentation has been more confusing than helpful.
 
My original problem (the reason I started scouring documentation) was that the target file is never created in my replica.  I have no idea why, and I haven't found any good help in the documentation or the list archives.
 
Help?  More details available on request.
