Subject: RE: Use of XML Catalog with Ant (xslt task) - request for example (using for DocBook/WebHelp)
Hi Kerry, We use the xslt task in ant with catalogs. The FO transformation consists of the following xslt task <xslt in="${outputLocation}/${docName}-profiled.xml"
</xslt> Where, as you see we reference the DOCBOOK_XML_CATALOG defined as
<xmlcatalog id="DOCBOOK_XML_CATALOG"> Note that the manual dtd tags are for backward compliance with some of our legacy systems. The catalog files follow the default Oasis catalog structure.
As the good eye will see our structure is inspired by how Oxygen lays out the catalog. :: Morten From: Kerry, Richard [mailto:richard.kerry@atos.net]
I’m trying to get DocBook WebHelp building working. Although I do already have a working Ant build file based on the one from the DocBook stylesheet distribution I would like to use Catalogs for resolving my stylesheet locations,
which the one provided doesn’t. For my other target formats I’m using Saxon 6, via an Ant Java task. I have catalogs working for these as that’s taken care of by parameters passed to Saxon. For WebHelp I’m using the Xslt task – that’s how the one in the stylesheet distribution is written, and it uses attributes like “if” and “_expression_” in its “param” elements,
and I don’t know how to convert these to Java/Saxon. I’ve tried to follow Ant’s documentation regarding the <xmlcatalog> element but I can’t get it to work. (I am finding the Ant documentation in this area extremely hard to
follow) By “can’t get it to work” I mean it doesn’t find the files I’m trying to reference via the catalog. It doesn’t show any messages indicating whether or not it is using the
resolver, so I presume it isn’t finding it. Does anyone have any complete example of this working. Ie one that includes a reference to the resolver jar, and the classpath, and the catalog file and/or catalogManager.properties. Alternatively – I think the only thing that blocked me from using Saxon was not knowing how to implement @_expression_ and @if, so if anyone can indicate how to do that for
Java/Saxon I may revert to that option. Appreciatively, Richard. Richard Kerry BNCS Engineer, SI SOL Telco & Media Vertical Practice T: +44 (0)20 822 59063
