Hi Folks,
I'm having a problem with the following code:
TransformerFactory tFactory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
Reader reader = new
FileReader("/home/richard/workspace/dspace-trunk/foresite/src/main/resources/rdfxml2rdfa.xsl");
StreamSource xslt = new StreamSource(reader);
Transformer transformer = tFactory.newTransformer(xslt);
and am finding that "transformer" is null. This is confusing, as the
javadocs are explicit on the subject:
newTransformer
public abstract Transformer
<http://xml.apache.org/xalan-j/apidocs/javax/xml/transform/Transformer.html>
*newTransformer*(Source
<http://xml.apache.org/xalan-j/apidocs/javax/xml/transform/Source.html> source)
throws TransformerConfigurationException
<http://xml.apache.org/xalan-j/apidocs/javax/xml/transform/TransformerConfigurationException.html>
*Returns:*
A |Transformer| object that may be used to perform a
transformation in a single |Thread|, never |null|.
Am I missing something, or is this a bug? What problems with my code
might be able to generate this null? The specified file does exist, and
as far as I can tell everything up to the last line is working fine.
I'm at a bit of a loss to know where to go next with this, so any help
gratefully appreciated,
Cheers,
Richard
