Trouble implementing XSLT in seam application

[tvraghavan]

We are implementing a generic dynamic view generation layer that can render the output using XSLT. We extract the SOAP body from the soap response, apply XSLT to generate template based html output.

The same implementation works fine using a simple JSP/Servlet implementation.

But when we implement the same logic within seam, we get an exception

Code snippet

    private String processXML() throws IOException {
          StringWriter out = new StringWriter();
          if(this.xmlinputString != null && this.xsltemplate != null)
          try {
               TransformerFactory tFactory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();

               Transformer transformer = tFactory.newTransformer(new StreamSource(
                         new StringReader(getXsltemplate())));

               transformer.transform(new StreamSource(new StringReader(
                         getXmlinputString())), new StreamResult(out));

          } catch(Exception e) {
               e.printStackTrace();
               throw new IOException(e);
          }
                System.out.println(out.toString());
          return (out.toString());

     }

Hi Raghav,
         I have tried the same and able to generate dynamic html

public static void translate(String xmlFile, String xslFileName,StreamResult result) throws Exception
{                         
        try
        { 
        File xmlFile = new File(xmlFile);
    File xsltFile = new File(xslFileName);

    // JAXP reads data using the Source interface
    Source xmlSource = new StreamSource(xmlFile);
    Source xsltSource = new StreamSource(xsltFile);

    // the factory pattern supports different XSLT processors
    TransformerFactory transFact =
            TransformerFactory.newInstance();
    Transformer trans = transFact.newTransformer(xsltSource);

     trans.transform(xmlSource, result);
   
        }
        catch (Exception e)
        {
          e.printStackTrace();
                       
        }
       
}
