The FObj.bind() method throws a SAXParseException if
this method hasn't been overridden in the FObj
subclass. I'm unsure why a subclass override is
required (as the javadoc comment for this method
indicates)--wouldn't it be OK if we just have an empty
method here without the exception (e.g. if you have no
properties of concern for a particular fo)? That
would seem to be preferable.
I'm a bit unsure. Generally I wanted two ways of handling
atrributes/properties. Either
- override "processNode" and optionally "createPropertyList" if the
element wants to deal with the attributes directly,
- or override "bind" if the element want to take part in the whole
property system.
Outline.java is an example of an element that want to handle the
attributes directly. And I think that the other two element "Label" and
"Bookmarks" should do the same.
So the preferred solution IMO would be to add a null
"createPropertyList" and an empty "processNode" method to ExtensionObj.
I mention this because I'm currently trying to run our
pdfoutline.fo example, and this exception is being
called because no bind() method has been implemented
yet in the fox:bookmarks element.

Appologies for the regressions.
