Hello everyone,

            I'm working on a servlet that has to call saxon in order to apply and xslt file to an xml file.My servlet is working perfectly with Netbeans but I have to make it work in Eclipse where I get the following error messages:

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: net/sf/saxon/TransformerFactoryImpl
    java.lang.Class.getDeclaredConstructors0(Native Method)
    java.lang.Class.privateGetDeclaredConstructors(Unk nown Source)
    java.lang.Class.getConstructor0(Unknown Source)

    org.apache.tomcat.util.threads.ThreadPool$ControlR unnable.run(ThreadPool.java:684)
    java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source

At first I thought it was a problem of the JVM but I included in the Library folder of my project both jre 1.5 and jdk 1.5 and didnt make any improvments.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Tomi.

The message means that the saxon8.jar file isn't on your classpath. But I'm not sure what this means you have to do in Eclipse terms - I think it has its own way of managing the classpath.
