Maybe I'm missing some major point...if you're embedding FOP in an application, why are you using that part of the code? There are other parts of the FOP API designed for embedding FOP in your code.

The issue was that some files that were created in the application and then deleted where not deleted (even with deleteOnExit) if System.exit wasn't called. That was an older VM though, and with Windows only. If you search the Sun bug database for System.exit, you get about 3000 hits last time I checked. 8-) Suggestion: Let the main method still do System.exit, but implement a utility method that does everything main did, except calling System.exit. That's fairly straightforward: main just calls the utility method, then does System.exit. -- Cappelino Informationstechnologie GmbH Arnd Beißner --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
