And of course, I missed the fact that the last method in the class contains a pathological use. To get the name of this class, we create a parser ? /** * Returns the fully qualified classname of the standard XML parser for FOP * to use. * @return the XML parser classname */ public static final String getParserClassName() { try { return createParser().getClass().getName(); } catch (FOPException e) { return null; } } -- John Austin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
