Description

• • • Feature request in org.apache.xalan.transformer.NodeSortKey ***

The class org.apache.xalan.xsltc.dom.NodeSortRecord allows one to use a
user-defined CollatorFactory for sorting. Unfortunatelly this feature works
only in conjuction with translets. It would be nice to have a similar feature
for the non-translet based transformations.

The following patch (relative to NodeSortKey.java,v 1.13) adds this feature
to Xalan:

diff src/org/apache/xalan/transformer/NodeSortKey.java:
23a24,25
> import javax.xml.transform.TransformerException;
>
24a27
> import org.apache.xalan.xsltc.CollatorFactory;
117,118c120,145
< m_col = Collator.getInstance(m_locale);
<
—
> // Try to use collator factory (as it happens for xsltc)
> String colFactClassname =
> System.getProperty("org.apache.xalan.transformer.COLLATOR_FACTORY");
>
> if (colFactClassname != null) {
> CollatorFactory _collatorFactory = null;
> try

{ > Class candClass = ObjectFactory.findProviderClass(colFactClassname, > ObjectFactory.findClassLoader(), true); > Object candObj = candClass.newInstance(); > _collatorFactory = (CollatorFactory) candObj; > }

> catch (ClassNotFoundException e)

{ > throw new TransformerException(e); > }
> catch (Exception e) {> throw new TransformerException(e);> }

>
> m_col = _collatorFactory.getCollator(m_locale);
> }
>
> if (null == m_col)

{ > m_col = Collator.getInstance(m_locale); > }
