Hi Michael,

I have a fully populated java object using which I would like call methods on, from the xsl file. I don't want to use

<xsl:variable name="ref" select="java:com.foo.bar.SomeClass.new()"/>,

since the new instance created does not have the properties which are required by the method I call.

I tried transformer.setParamater("ref", this) passing the fully populated object where I am transforming the xsl.

and then declared the parameter in xsl as <xsl:param name="ref" />

But the problem is I am not able to access it by saying,

<xsl:variable name="var" select="java:doSomething($ref)">

nor

<xsl:variable name="var" select="java:$ref"/>

and call methods using $var

Is there a way to achieve this? Please let me know if you need more details to clarify.

Thanks,
Aravind.

This is probably specific to the XSLT processor you are using.

Think before you post: What have you tried?

Thanks for the quick response Sam. I am using this implementation of Transformer to process the xsl - com.sun.org.apache.xalan.internal.xsltc.trax.Trans formerFactoryImpl Is this what you are talking about?

Sam,

You were absolutely right. I used a different implementation and I am able to achieve this.

Thanks a ton.

Aravind.
