Cedric,
you're right, there's something odd there, but I get a RuntimeException
when I try to do something similar to what you have. I don't have time
right now to investigate what exactly goes wrong.
Here's a variant that works for me:
public void testFilterChainingWithFOP1() throws Exception {
File inputFile = new File("C:/Dev/FOP/temp/helloworld.fo");
File outputFile = new File("D:/out1.pdf");
InputStream in = new java.io.FileInputStream(inputFile);
try {
InputSource inputSource = new InputSource(in);
SAXTransformerFactory tFactory =
(SAXTransformerFactory)SAXTransformerFactory.newInstance();
SAXParserFactory pFactory = SAXParserFactory.newInstance();
System.out.println("SAXParserFactory: " +
pFactory.getClass().getName());
System.out.println("SAXTransformerFactory: " +
tFactory.getClass().getName());
pFactory.setNamespaceAware(true);
pFactory.setValidating(false);
SAXParser parser = pFactory.newSAXParser();
XMLReader parent = parser.getXMLReader();
for (int i = 0; i < STYLESHEETS.length; i++) {
String xsltFile = STYLESHEETS[i];
XMLFilter filter = tFactory.newXMLFilter(new
StreamSource(xsltFile));
filter.setParent(parent);
parent = filter;
}
Source src = new SAXSource(parent, inputSource);
FopFactory fopFactory = FopFactory.newInstance();
FOUserAgent ua = fopFactory.newFOUserAgent();
OutputStream out = new java.io.FileOutputStream(outputFile);
Fop fop = fopFactory.newFop("application/pdf", ua, out);
Result res = new SAXResult(fop.getDefaultHandler());
Transformer transformer = tFactory.newTransformer(); //You can add
a stylesheet here, too
transformer.transform(src, res);
} finally {
IOUtils.closeQuietly(in);
}
}
