Saxon » SaxonC

I tried to use a stylesheet with a reflexive extension function that runs fine with Saxon Java 12.4 EE through SaxonC EE 12.4.2's transform command line but it doesn't find the function.

Is there any way to get this working? Or would any class needed for a reflexive extension require registration for reflection when building SaxonC with GraalVM/nativeimage?

Example stylesheet:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
  version="3.0"
  xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
  xmlns:uuid="java:java.util.UUID"
  exclude-result-prefixes="#all"
  expand-text="yes">

  <xsl:template match="/" name="xsl:initial-template">
    <random-uuid>{uuid:randomUUID()}</random-uuid>
    <xsl:comment>Run with {system-property('xsl:product-name')} {system-property('xsl:product-version')} {system-property('Q{http://saxon.sf.net/}platform')}</xsl:comment>
  </xsl:template>
  
</xsl:stylesheet>

Example output with Saxon Java EE: -it -xsl:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><random-uuid>ae9649aa-3462-4b1e-8fcf-1f10e4e6cf7f</random-uuid><!--Run with SAXON EE 12.4 -->

Output with SaxonC EE transform.exe:

So it looks into java.util.UUID but doesn't find the function:
