I am running into an issue, and it doesn't make sense to me. I have a simple java program that runs my XSLT that uses the SQL Extension. It runs fine on my PC. No problem, works like a champ... good stuff.
I put this same code on an iSeries (AS/400), I put xalan.jar, xml-apis.jar, jt400.jar, etc. in my classpath and execute the code and it doesn't work. I get the "No suitable driver found" error I am sure you all have seen before. My driver is com.ibm.as400.access.AS400JDBCDriver and it is in jt400.jar... which is in my classpath. I have seen people mention the Xalan classloader and I am wondering what that is all about. Is there something special in Xalan for loading classes that is different from other things one usually runs across? Also, what can I do to get better exception information from my stylesheet when things like this happen. Right now I am just using the xsl:message and xsl:copy elements like those that are found in the SQL Extension examples. I would like to get a full stack trace. Do I need to write a custom ErrorHandler to do this? Thanks for your help. -Dan Feather
