XML transformer classloader issue

[norsay]

I'm doing some XSL transformation. As it seems each child node of the XML I'm trying to render is beeing duplicated and copied to the upper level.

example:

<a>
 <b name="..."/>
</a>

after transformation:
output of a
 output of b
output of b

expected output:
output of a
 output of b

If the transformation is done as standalone application, everything works as expected. If the transformation is done within JBoss, the transformation failes...

I read about a classloader issue for javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory and I tried to fix it as discussed there (removing javax.xml from xml-apis.jar, setting XML stuff with -Djavax... property). However this didn't solve the problem.

I'm pretty sure this is a problem of classloaders. But I don't know which class is really responsible for the mess :-(

Any ideas?

BTW: I'm using JDK 1.5.0_06B05 with JBoss 3.2.8SP1

Thanks for your help!

solved the problem myself. Instead of rendering the XSLT on server side (EJB - located in a JAR within the EAR) I'm doing the transformation in my struts action (located in the WAR within the EAR). Ok, it is more a hack than a solution, however it's working now :-)
