Try putting the param=value in quotes (as "param=value" or
param="value"). Different shell languages have different rules about the
characters allowed in a single parameter, and the rules aren't well
documented.

Subject: [xsl] passing in XSL parameters using Saxon
Hi There,
hopefully a simple one - can you see anything wrong with this
syntax? It's driving me up the wall! I am trying to do a
command line transformation using Saxon, passing in a
parameter of a filename, and the Saxon parser states I am
using a bad param=value pair, yet as far as I can see, my
command line is using the correct syntax. I am in the correct
dir, with the correct filenames on the command line (in windows).
my input is essentially -o outputfile.xsl
xmlToTransformOn.xml Stylesheet.xsl param=value as per the
instructions with Saxon. See below cut and pasted directly
unedited from the dos prompt):
-----------cut n'paste from DOS--------------------------
java -jar C:\java\saxon7-1\saxon7.jar -o test_transformer.xsl
disch-template.xml generator.xsl mapping-file=mappings-discharge.xml
Bad param=value pair on command line
SAXON
Usage: java net.sf.saxon.Transform [options] source-doc
style-doc {param=value}...
Options:
-a Use xml-stylesheet PI, not style-doc argument
-ds Use standard tree data structure
-dt Use tinytree data structure (default)
-o filename Send output to named file or directory
-m classname Use specified Emitter class for xsl:message output
-r classname Use specified URIResolver class
-t Display version and timing information
-T Set standard TraceListener
-TL classname Set a specific TraceListener
-u Names are URLs not filenames
-w0 Recover silently from recoverable errors
-w1 Report recoverable errors and continue (default)
-w2 Treat recoverable errors as fatal
-x classname Use specified SAX parser for source file
-y classname Use specified SAX parser for stylesheet
-? Display this message

Am I doing anything blatently wrong? :) Thanks for your
comments, Alistair
