Hello,

we switched recently from fop 0.20.5 to 0.94. Now there appears to be a
problem with jars containing an INDEX.LIST. Is there a known problem
with the usage of the jar -i command?

We use quite a number of jar-files (around 300 - 350) so using an
INDEX.LIST improves the startup-time of our application. After switching
to FOP 0.94 and making the necessary changes to the code and the xsls,
generating pdfs worked quite well . . . from Eclipse. After we packaged
the application into a jar file using the -I switch to generate a file
INDEX.LIST it is no longer possible to generate pdfs. I get the
error-message:

Caused by: java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: Don't know how to
handle "application/pdf" as an output format. Neither an FOEventHandler,
nor a Renderer could be found for this output format.

We do not package all jars into one large jar. We keep them separate and
use a long classpath. Deleting the INDEX.LIST from the app.jar solves
the problem but increases startup-time.

Apparently the files in the folder META-INF/services are no longer
found. (I figured this out by searching the mailing list. . . ) Is there
a way to still use the INDEX.LIST? Is using this discouraged?

Any help is appreciated. . .

Jan
