BTW: Just to note that Saxon 11.3 has been working fine for me under Basex 9.x, But it requires including the included xmlresolver files in the class path:
export CLASSPATH=/usr/local/Cellar/saxon/11.3/libexec/saxon-he-11.3.jar:/usr/local/Cellar/saxon/11.3/libexec/lib/*.jar But I haven’t done any special testing using the resolver from either Saxon or BaseX — Just running my current development code without noticing any problems. ( If you only include saxon-he-11.3.jar, xslt:processor() and xslt:version() will make it appear that it’s working under BaseX, but xslt:transform() will fail on not finding resolver classes. ) I’ve had my share of resolver issues in the past, and happily discovered that by upgrading JDK, I could get resolver to work in some apps without any code change, just by adding '-Djavax.xml.catalog.files=…’ to the command line. But I spent a lot of effort trying to get resolver to work in cases where it apparently wasn’t intended to work ( like for XInclude’s ). I think Norm’s replacement does try to provide a lot more functionality — I’ll have to try intentionally using it! — Steve M. > On Jul 7, 2022, at 5:26 AM, Christian Grün <christian.gr...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hi Vincent, > > XML catalogs and Java 8 are an ungrateful combination indeed.
