RE: XMPSpy and Xalan

I am able to invoke the transformation from the command line with the
following:

java org.apache.xalan.xslt.Process -IN C:\WEB-INF\xml\inbox.xml -XSL
C:\WEB-INF\xsl\en\0006\mail\current_activity.xsl -OUT
C:\Stylesheets\current_activity.html

However, when I configure XMLSpy with the following, I get an error message
that the syntax is incorrect 
(xalan -o %2 %1 %3, where %1 equals XML input, %2 equals output, and %3
equals XSL):

xalan -o C:\Stylesheets\current_activity.html C:\WEB-INF\xml\inbox.xml
C:\WEB-INF\xsl\en\0006\mail\current_activity.xsl

xalan -IN C:\WEB-INF\xml\inbox.xml -XSL
C:\WEB-INF\xsl\en\0006\mail\current_activity.xsl -OUT
C:\Stylesheets\current_activity.html

At 09:37 AM 5/4/2005, it was written:
Use the following menu: Tools -> Options and then the XSL tab. Check 
the "External XSL Transformation program" and enter the following 
command

xalan -o %2 %1 %3

This will work provided that xalan is in your PATH.

I'm not a regular Spy user, but to me this looks like the syntax for
invoking Saxon.

Wouldn't Xalan be invoked as

xalan -IN input.xml -XSL stylesheet.xsl -OUT output.file

?

(Unless "xalan" isn't just Xalan....)

It's worth checking if there's a problem.

Cheers,
Wendell
