Apache Xalan XML Transformer
The built-in transformer in WebLogic Server 7.0 is based on the Apache Xalan 2.2
transformer.
Use of the Xalan APIs directly has been deprecated. If you are still using those APIs
and encounter difficulties, you should use the Java API for XML Processing (JAXP)
to use XSLT.
Changes were made to Apache’s Xalan code to enable Xerces and Xalan to work
together. You may encounter problems if you use Xalan from Apache, because it will
not include these changes.
In general, it is best to use JAXP and to port any vendor-specific code to a neutral API
such as JAXP for SAX, DOM, and XSL processing.
Previous versions of WebLogic Server included the unmodified versions of the Xerces
parser and Xalan transformer from www.apache.org in the
WL_HOME\server\ext\xmlx.zip file. The ZIP file no longer includes these classes
and interfaces. Download the unmodified Xerces parser and Xalan transformer
directly from the Apache Web site.
