Xalan 2.7.1 and jBoss 4.2.2GA

Hi,

We've been successfully using Xalan 2.7.0 and Websphere (with Java 1.4) to do XSLT transformation (in particular fancy grouping of the XML data).

We're migrating our application to jBoss 4.2.2GA and Java 1.5 and have discovered that we need to use Xalan 2.7.1 in order for the XSLT transformation to work correctly.

If we add the Xalan 2.7.1 libs to our application then jBoss errors when running them - since it's already got Xalan 2.7.0 embedded.

If we try updating the endorsed libs to 2.7.1 then jBoss won't start correctly.

Has anyone tried this before with any success or what 'variation' of Xalan do we need to drop in to get it to work (bcel not needed???)

Help

Chris

Try including the xalan jar with you app and defining a classloader repository in your jboss-app.xml file. See Scoping Classes for instructions.

We had no luck with that approach.

In the end the 'easiest' solution was to copy xalan.jar, serializer.jar, xercesImpl.jar, xml-apis.jar and bcel.jar into the lib/endorsed folder - then everything was happy.

I appreciate that this is not necessarily the best solution but it works for us until Jboss itself moves forward.
