[xsl] Getting info of runtime failure in saxon environment

2013-02-21 03:26:02
Hello List,

I running my xsl-xml conversion using Saxon processor in java, called from 
command line using a batch file that contains "java -jar saxon9.jar ...". The 
source XML comes with some invalid byte char that results in error.

Error at xsl:for-each on line 61 of xxx.xsl:
com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.impl.io.MalformedByteSequenceException: 
Invalid byte 1
of 1-byte UTF-8 sequence.
Transformation failed: Run-time errors were reported

The above error showing xsl line number is of not much use, but for information 
purpose, the for-each statement trries to process files of a collection. 
Exampple code:
   <xsl:variable name="inputFiles" 
select="collection(concat($dirInput,'?select=*.xml;recurse=yes'))"/>
   <xsl:for-each select="$inputFiles">

What I need is some information giving clue which line of XML data results in 
this error, like say "in xml...line number n char x fails.." sort of message 
that will make it easy to identify xml error without the need of using 
specialised  tools. Is this possible? I am still reading the documents in 
saxonica and read "An error reported by the XML parser is generally fatal. It 
is not possible to process ill-formed XML." statement but any possible solution 
would be of great help. FYI, I did identified and corrected the source xml 
using specialised  xml tools, but going forward we need to use command line 
option which could be used by someone with basic xml knowledge.

Thanks in adv,
Karl
