Xalan document() memory problem

[Tobias Schierge]

Hi,

i'm using the document()-function within xsl to process about 100 documents
within one xalan-transformation. This leads to an outofmemoryexception.

The FAQ <http://xml.apache.org/xalan-j/faq.html> sais that i need to use the
PI..

<?xalan:doc-cache-off?>

...to prevent xalan from caching these document.

But if i add this piece of code the parser says that a colon is not allowed
when using namespaces.

What do i need to use this processing instruction?

Thanks,

Tobias

As far as I know, Xalan cashes all documents, it received through the
document function. The implementation of the document function in

org.apache.xalan.xsltc.dom.LoadDocument

takes a boolean value if it should cache such documents:

...
private static DTMAxisIterator document(String uri, String base,
AbstractTranslet translet, DOM dom,
boolean cacheDOM)
throws Exception
{
....

Guess this processing instruction turns the value to "false"
