[jdom-interest] JDOM XSLT TransformerConfigurationException

Fri Jan 2 05:50:10 PST 2009

Hi All,
I am getting the following exception when trying to do simple transformation (newbie in JDOM XSLT) using either XSLTransformer/TrAX in JDOM:

javax.xml.transform.TransformerConfigurationException: java.io.EOFException: no more input
at com.icl.saxon.PreparedStyleSheet.prepare(PreparedStyleSheet.java:121)

... 4 more

Below is the stateStyleSheet:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="/">
<html>
<body>
<h2>Transformed State Detail</h2>
<table border="1">
<tr bgcolor="lightblue">
<th align="left">Area Link</th>
<th align="left">Area Name</th>
</tr>
<xsl:for-each select="/ns:html/ns:body/ns:div[@id='content']/ns:table[@class='sresults']/ns:tr/ns:td/ns:a">
<tr>
<td><xsl:value-of select="@href"/></td>
<td><xsl:value-of select="@title"/></td>
</tr>
</xsl:for-each>
</table>
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

The Java program that calls this stateStyleSheet is as follows:
    SAXBuilder statesaxBuilder = new SAXBuilder("org.ccil.cowan.tagsoup.Parser", false);
    org.jdom.Document stateDocument = statesaxBuilder.build("state.xml");
    TransformerFactory factory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
    Transformer transformer = factory.newTransformer(new StreamSource("stateStyleSheet.xsl"));
    JDOMSource source = new JDOMSource(stateDocument);
    JDOMResult result = new JDOMResult();
    transformer.transform(source, result);
    Document tranformedDocument = result.getDocument();
    ......

Could this exception have been caused by incorrectly formatted stateStyleSheet? The search path "/ns:html/ns:body/ns:div[@id='content']/ns:table[@class='sresults']/ns:tr/ns:td/ns:a" has successfully worked in XPath such as the following lines:

    XPath statePath = XPath.newInstance("/ns:html/ns:body/ns:div[@id='content']/ns:table [@class='sresults']/ns:tr/ns:td/ns:a");
    statePath.addNamespace("ns", http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml);

Whether including namespace ("ns") or not doesn't make any difference.
I am running JDK1.6, Netbeans 6.1, JDOM 1.1, Saxon 6.5, TagSoup 1.2 on Windows XP platform.
Your assistance would be much appreciated.
Many thanks,
Jack
