XSLT-process 1.1 available

Subject:   [xsl] ANN: XSLT-process 1.1 available

XSLT-process is a minor mode for (X)Emacs that allows you to invoke an XSLT processor of choice on a buffer, displaying the result in an additional buffer. Currently supported processors include Xalan 1.x, and Saxon 5.x and 6.x. Cocoon 1.8.x, an XML publishing framework, is also supported through its command line interface. Support for other Java XSLT processor could be added easily.

This is a maintenance release; below are the changes in the 1.1 release:

  • The `xslt-process-additional-classpath' customization variable has been introduced. Setup this variable with any additional Java classpath components you want to be passed to the BeanShell when is first invoked. If you already started a BeanShell, you need to kill the corresponding buffer (named `*bsh*') and restart it by invoking *XSLT-process* on a buffer. (Suggestion from T. V. Raman <tvraman@almaden.ibm.com>.)

  • Allow for passing the user agent to the Cocoon processor so that multiple browser types can be simulated. This works with a patch I submitted against Cocoon 1.8-dev; it was incorporated and should be available in the 1.8.1 release. If you need the patch before this release, feel free to contact me, I'll gladly send it to you.

  • The way the error messages are displayed has changed, now error messages encountered during the JVM startup process also go in the `*xslt-output*' buffer.

  • The default keybinding has been changed to `C-M-x' instead of `C-c x', to conform to the (X)Emacs keybinding standards.
