Good eye! I copied *.jar from the lib folder to a folder in my classpath. I now get a different error:
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/avalon/framework/configuration/ConfigurationException at org.apache.fop.apps.FopFactory.<init>(FopFactory.java:149) at org.apache.fop.apps.FopFactory.newInstance(FopFactory.java:165) at MyFop.render(MyFop.java:75) In my folder I have the following file: "avalon-framework-4.2.0.jar". I followed this trail to line 149: this.config = new FopFactoryConfigurator(this); Dan > -----Original Message----- > From: Andreas Delmelle [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: February 29, 2008 3:18 PM > To: fop-users@xmlgraphics.apache.org > Subject: Re: Embedding FOP: error with FopFactory > > On Feb 29, 2008, at 21:07, Fournier,Danny [NCR] wrote: > > Hi > > > I'm having issues calling the FopFactory.newInstance() method. > > > > It's basically a cut and paste from the example I found on Apache's > > site > > > > -- Error -- > > ROOT CAUSE: > > java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/xmlgraphics/util/Service > > at > > org.apache.fop.util.ContentHandlerFactoryRegistry.discover > > (ContentHandlerFactoryRegistry.java:102) > > at org.apache.fop.util.ContentHandlerFactoryRegistry.<init> > > (ContentHandlerFactoryRegistry.java:47) > > at org.apache.fop.apps.FopFactory.<init>(FopFactory.java:75) > > at org.apache.fop.apps.FopFactory.newInstance > > (FopFactory.java:165) > > at MyFop.render(MyFop.java:75) > > > Seems to be a classpath-related issue. > Check whether all FOP's dependencies (= the JARs in the > %FOP_ROOT%/ lib directory) are present and correctly loaded. > The error is due to the xmlgraphics-commons JAR being missing... > > HTH! > > > Cheers > > Andreas > > > > -- Code -- > > public void render(){ > > try { > > > > // configure fopFactory as desired > > 75: FopFactory fopFactory = FopFactory.newInstance(); > > > > FOUserAgent foUserAgent = fopFactory.newFOUserAgent(); > > // configure foUserAgent as desired > > > > // Setup output > > OutputStream out = new > java.io.FileOutputStream(this.pdf); > > out = new java.io.BufferedOutputStream(out); > > > > try { > > // Construct fop with desired output format > > Fop fop = fopFactory.newFop(MimeConstants.MIME_PDF, > > foUserAgent, out); > > > > // Setup XSLT > > TransformerFactory factory = > > TransformerFactory.newInstance(); > > Transformer transformer = > factory.newTransformer (new > > StreamSource(this.xslt)); > > > > // Set the value of a <param> in the stylesheet > > transformer.setParameter("versionParam", "2.0"); > > > > // Setup input for XSLT transformation > > Source src = new StreamSource(this.xml); > > > > // Resulting SAX events (the generated FO) must be > > piped through to FOP > > Result res = new SAXResult(fop.getDefaultHandler()); > > > > // Start XSLT transformation and FOP processing > > transformer.transform(src, res); > > } finally { > > out.close(); > > } > > > > System.out.println("Success!"); > > } catch (Exception e) { > > e.printStackTrace(System.err); > > System.exit(-1); > > } > > } > > > > Dan > > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
