Xalan Java TransformerException?

java transformerexception
I am getting the following exception:

javax.xml.transform.TransformerException: For extension function, could not find method java.lang.String.format([ExpressionContext,] #UNKNOWN (java.util.Date))

For the following XSL fragment :
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:java="http://xml.apache.org/xslt/java"
extension-element-prefixes="java"
exclude-result-prefixes="java">


<!-- formatter is type java.text.SimpleDateFormat -->
	<xsl:param name="formatter"/>
<!-- request is type java.Util.HashMap -->
	<xsl:param name="requestMap"/>

<xsl:variable name="StartTime" select="java:get($requestMap,'AnalyticsStartTime')"/>
<xsl:variable name="AnalyticsStartTime" select="java:format($formatter, $StartTime)"/>



Questions: 1. Why does the XSL complier think format() is being called for a String?

When I resolve format() completely as follows:
<xsl:variable name="AnalyticsStartTime" select="java:java.text.SimpleDateFormat.format($formatter, $StartTime)"/>


The exception is:
For extension function, could not find method static java.text.SimpleDateFormat.format([ExpressionContext,] #STRING, #UNKNOWN (java.util.Date)).



2. How can I fix this?


Thanks a lot for your help and suggestions.
