RE: FopServlet
Are you not creating an XML file on disk with this version with:
else if ((xmlParam != null) (xslParam != null)) {
Source src = new StreamSource(new File(xmlParam));
I think it would be good to include an example of how to generate the PDF
from a ProjectTeam without touching the disk?

Here's a modified version of the servlet:
http://cvs.apache.org/~jeremias/FopServlet.java
BTW, while updating the file I found an opportunity for a little
optimization. In the servlet's case the ByteArrayOutputStream should not
be instantiated with the default constructor. This only allocates 64
bytes initially. Every time the buffer runs out of space the old buffer
is discarded and a new one with twice the previous space is allocated.
If you do new ByteArrayOutputStream(16384) (or an even higher number
depending on the documents you serve), you will get a slight performance
improvement almost for free. :-)

The modified servlet has the same functionality as the example servlet

RE: FopServlet
Right, I have got it working!
Thanks for your help Jeremias - you were right about input.run() running in
my test (which was the old way - which was causing the error!).. the key
was to use the ExampleObj2PDF logic in the servlet...
Maybe the example can be updated with my version? I have not compiled this,
but I know it works...
Here is :
public void execute(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse
response)
throws IOException, ServletException {
ByteArrayOutputStream out = null;
try {
ProjectTeam projectTeam = new ProjectTeam();
projectTeam.setProjectName(test);
Driver driver = new Driver();
Logger logger = new ConsoleLogger(ConsoleLogger.LEVEL_INFO);
driver.setLogger(logger);
MessageHandler.setScreenLogger(logger);
driver.setRenderer(Driver.RENDER_PDF);
out = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
driver.setOutputStream(out);
File xslFile = new
File(./../webapps/myappname/WEB-INF/classes/mypkgname/fop,
projectteam2fo.xsl);
//Setup XSLT
TransformerFactory factory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
Transformer transformer = factory.newTransformer(new
StreamSource(xslFile));
//Setup input for XSLT transformation
Source src = incident.getSource();
//Resulting SAX events (the generated FO) must be piped through
to FOP
Result res = new SAXResult(driver.getContentHandler());
//Start XSLT transformation and FOP processing
transformer.transform(src, res);
byte[] content = out.toByteArray();
response.setContentType(application/pdf);
response.setContentLength(content.length);
response.getOutputStream().write(content);
response.getOutputStream().flush();
} catch (Exception e) {
throw new ServletException(e);
} finally {
if (out!=null) {
out.close();
}
}
}

Does the problem persist if you serialize the SAX events generated by
the Incident with an identity transformer to a file and run the XSL
transformation stand-alone from the command-line?
I don't think it's a problem but did you realize that you have two FOP
processing runs in your testGeneratePDF() method, the first started by
Transformer.transform() and the other by input.run()? Since I can't do
anything with the line numbers in the stack trace, this is something you
have to do.

Hmm, you are still using the InputHandler approach which I personally
don't consider ideal. I'd integrate the renderXML() method into the main
execute method and use the pattern from ExampleObj2PDF 1:1. But I can't

Hi, I am using apply-templates, but would like to always spit out one child (ie.TeamMemeber) entry in the PDF doc. At the momment, if there is no TeamMember, nothing gets written to the PDF document..

Do the following: Instead of piping the result of the XSL transformation
through to FOP with the following line:
Result res = new SAXResult(driver.getContentHandler());
...simply serialize the resulting XSL-FO document to a file:
Result res = new StreamResult(new File(C:/Temp/debug.fo));
Check if the FO file looks right and runs smoothly through FOP.
To debug the whole thing outside of your application you might want to
consider writing the early XML to a file. In this case your code would
look like in [1]. Note the identity transformer instead of an XSL
transformation. In this case you'd have a Result like this:
Result res = new StreamResult(new File(C:/Temp/debug.xml));
Once you have the XML from your application, you can use xalan.bat, fop.bat
and your stylesheet to debug everything. Once your stylesheet is fixed
you can run the integrated code again that does the full functionality.
The key is to break down the whole process into it parts (creating XML
from your application, transforming using XSLT and formatting using FOP).

As the Object to PDF generation process, includes generating the XML and
the
FO syntax (at some point during the processing - I assume at least)... is
there any way to get this information by switching on some sort of FOP
debugging?
That would be really useful (and will probably save me a lot of
