I seem to be missing something in understanding either how to set up SS Enterprise Suite to use an external XSLT processor or possibly in how to preview a transformation. The command line options are the same as I used with Xselerator, so I know they are valid. Suggestions welcome.

In the Options > XSLT Editor > Processor (custom) settings I have:

-- the command line:
-in %1 -xsl %2 -out %3

-- the path (correct path to external engine)

-- Classpath (empty)

In the Project window I have the XSL file open and the XML file. With the XSL active, I click the green Preview icon.

The error msg says:

External XSLT processing started...
Command line failed:
-in "[correctly displays path & input XML file]"
-xsl "[correct path\STY19FO.xsl]" Problem: unknown filename
-out "[C:\Documentspath\RES19F1.xml]"
Initial Directory:
(null)
Error Message: The system cannot find the file specified.

The names of the -xsl and -out files change each time Preview is clicked.

I'm hitting Preview with the XSL file I want to use, so why is it looking for an unknown XSL file?

Thank you.

Hi Sheila,
you must specify the name of the engine in the command line value (e.g. "processor -in ..." instead of just "-in ..."); the "path" setting should list the directory (or more than one, separated by ";") where the custom processor will search for dependent DLLs.

Hope this helps,
Alberto

Thank you [belatedly], Alberto, that did the trick.
