Description Yishay Mor 2001-06-26 14:24:00 UTC 
I tried running Tomcat over the jdk1.4 beta. Tomcat works fine, but the xsl
taglib fails. This is because the jdk rt.jar contains a copy of
org.apache.xalan.xslt.Process. The tag throws the following exception:

javax.servlet.ServletException:
org.apache.xalan.xslt.Process.getDefaultLiaison()Ljava/lang/String;
	at
org.apache.jasper.runtime.PageContextImpl.handlePageException(PageContextImpl.java:459)
	at

The XSL taglib is written to the Xalan 1 release.  Xalan 1 does not use
the standard XSL trax API.  Now that JDK 1.4 comes with a TRAX compatible
XSL Processor, you will not be able to use the XSL taglib.

The XSL taglib on the jakarta-taglibs site will be deprecated soon.
The XTAGS or JSTL taglibs can be used instead.  These are compatible
with JDK1.4 and TRAX.
