But I haven't a directory called "gensrc"? I downloaded the SVN-

just minutes ago.
This directory contains source files automatically generated during
the
build process. To create it you have to run
ant codegen
in the root directory of FOP.
FWIW, the XML sources of these generated files hardly ever change, so
I think we may even consider replacing these with pregenerated java
classes...?
It always seems to confuse people who are interested in contributing
code.
Then, once you start wondering why these need to be generated and
cannot simply be added as java sources, you'll quickly realize there
is no good reason for that. Replacing maintenance of 15 classes with
maintaining 2 stylesheets and 15 XML source files hardly seems worth
the trouble... :/
