Transformation with Xalan 2.7.0 and JDK 1.4.2

Post by **md283aa** » Tue Nov 29, 2005 4:52 pm

Hi.

Isn't it possible to use Xalan 2.7.0 which is shipped with current version 6.2.6 on JDK 1.4.2? Oxygenxml is running within Eclipse and tells me that Xalan needs Java Version 1.5.

I don't think so.

Regards, Kai

Dear Kai,

That should be possible but you need to use the Endorsed Standards Override Mechanism as described on the Xalan website:

Dear George,

I don't think this will solve my problem. I have no preference which version of Xalan is used. I only want to select Xalan for XSL Transformations within Oxygenxml (Eclipse). But selecting Xalan in a Transformation Scenario results in the error message:

"The required Java version for running Xalan 2.7.0 is 1.5 or grater. Please make sure that Eclipse is using it."

So I can not use Xalan transformer within Oxygenxml (Eclipse)?

Best Regards,
Kai

Hi Kai,

You need to run Eclipse with Java 1.5 instead of Java 1.4. For that you need to have a Java 1.5 installation and pass in command line to Eclipse the path to that Java installation, so you need to start Eclipse with something like:

eclipse -clean -vm c:\yourHavaDir\bin\java.exe -vmargs -Xmx256m
