Xalan does spawn a thread when you request that it be run in incremental mode. I don't know whether Cocoon is using that feature or not. Other than that, we don't spawn any threads that I know of...
The error you're getting is reported as a socket _write_ error. That means it's happening on the output side of Xalan. Are you sure that the socket you're trying to write to is actually open for write? "Connection aborted by peer" means that the other end of the socket closed the connection. I agree that we probably should be reporting this more gracefully, but it still points to problems in your socket setup rather than in Xalan. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
