Hi mates !
That's crazy, I was trying today to implement the <fo:marker> tag to solve
my title problem, running fop-0.20.4, but I had NullPointerException at
runtime (see bellow). I was about to write you one of my "borring mail" ;)
but I decided to try with the new 0.20.5rc2 before annoying you...
I tested on my workstation (using .bat in debug mode), ok, then I put
(please notice the right use of the irregular verb, thanks to J.Pietschmann ;))
this 0.20.5rc2 in our apache/tomcat server and it's
working perfectly with this version of fop !
I have no more problem...
I pasted the mail I was writing before trying the rc2 bellow ! I hope
that's not totally useless, if that's the case, just excuse me (again) for
posting.
In fact, it stays one question... How can I test the value of a
<fo:retrieve-marker retrieve-class-name="theme" /> tag (I understood now
that it is not evaluated by the same process than the xsl stylesheet) ?
I have to write a border with text from top to bottom, and the
'writing-mode' properties is not implemented yet, so I just want to use a
graphic to do that, but I need to test the marker value to choose the
right graphic.
Is that possible, or should I use something like another XSL
transformation to put a   after each character ?
Thanks again mates, I hope I'll be able to help people here like you help
me soon.

-- Example of <fo:marker> usage working with 0.20.5rc2 but not with 0.20.4
!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here's the extracts from my xsl stylesheet :
My page sequence :
<fo:page-sequence-master master-name="document">
<fo:repeatable-page-master-alternatives>
<fo:conditional-page-master-reference odd-or-even="even"
master-reference="even"/>
<fo:conditional-page-master-reference odd-or-even="odd"
master-reference="odd"/>
</fo:repeatable-page-master-alternatives>
</fo:page-sequence-master>
My static content on the even pages :
<fo:static-content flow-name="margin-even">
<fo:table table-layout="fixed">
<fo:table-column column-width="6mm" />
<fo:table-body>
<fo:table-row height="297mm">
<fo:table-cell border-style="solid" border-width="0pt"
background-color="#CECCCB">
<fo:block>
<fo:retrieve-marker retrieve-class-name="theme" />
</fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>
</fo:table-row>
</fo:table-body>
</fo:table>
</fo:static-content>
Here's my body :
<fo:flow flow-name="xsl-region-body">
<xsl:apply-templates select="FICHE">
<xsl:sort select="SOUSTHEME" />
</xsl:apply-templates>
</fo:flow>
In my FICHE template, I have this tag for all titles :
<xsl:apply-templates select="TITRE" />.
This is the template where I set the <fo:marker> to the current TITLE :
<xsl:template match="TITRE">
<fo:marker marker-class-name="theme">
<fo:block>
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</fo:block>
</fo:marker>
<fo:block font-size="13pt"
border-style="solid"
border-width="0pt"
font-family="Helvetica Black"
text-align="end"
color="white">
<xsl:value-of select="." />
</fo:block>
<xsl:apply-templates />
</xsl:template>
Here's the error returned by Tomcat in run mode :
java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.NullPointerException
at
org.apache.xalan.transformer.TransformerImpl.run(TransformerImpl.java:3231)
at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:484)
I am currently running FOP 0.20.4 with the 1.3.1_04 JDK.
Many thanks for your help, I hope I was clear enought.
