Hi Thomas,
This sounds like a change in the parser, or a bug fix that exposes
incorrect behavior on the part of your ErrorHandler derivative. I suspect
what's happening is the parser is recovering from the error and continuing.
The appropriate behavior is for your ErrorHandler to throw some sort of
exception to stop the parse.

1.3/1.4 behvior change when compiling a stylesheet
Thanks for the information.
Actually, we are not throwing an exception from the error handler and this
is probably the issue.
In 1.3 it seems that we did not have to (compileStylesheet was still
returning the appropriate success/failure code), but that was may be
already
a mistake.
We are going to change the code to throw an exception. If the problem is
still not fixed, I will open a bug report.

Hi Thomas,
That sounds like a bug. You are throwing an exception from your
ErrorHandler, right?
This could also be a change in how the parser is handling things. Are you
talking about well-formedness errors in the stylesheet, or perhaps XPath
errors in stylesheet elements?
If you could open a bug report, with a minimal input document and
stylesheet
that reproduce the problem, that would be great.

1.3/1.4 behvior change when compiling a stylesheet
A quick question in case someone experienced the same problem. If I
configure a XalanTransformer with an error handler and if I compile a
stylesheet, any errors in the stylesheet are reported through the error
handler. In Xalan 1.3, the return of the compileStylesheet operation was
also different from 0 (success) in case any errors were reported through
the
error handler. In Xalan 1.4, it seems that even if some errors are reported
through the error handler, the return of the compileStylesheet is set to 0
(success). Is it an expected behavior change or should I investigate a
little more to make sure that I am not doing anything wrong?
Thanks.
Thomas
