Saxon » SaxonC

Hi

I downloaded and installed Saxon-HEC http://www.saxonica.com/saxon-c/libsaxon-HEC-setup-v0.3.1.exe for Windows and used pre-compiled php_saxon.dll for PHP 5.4.x

I have freshly installed x86 WAMP 2.4 with PHP 5.4.33

This is my test code:

<?php
$xml = 'trax\xml\foo.xml';
$xsl = 'trax\xsl\foo.xsl';
if(file_exists($xml)) echo "XML file {$xml} is OK; ";
if(file_exists($xml)) echo "XSL file {$xsl} is OK; ";
@$proc = new SaxonProcessor();
$proc->setSourceFile($xml);
$proc->setStylesheetFile($xsl);
$result = $proc->transformToString();                          
var_dump($result);

This is my output:

XML file trax\xml\foo.xml is OK; XSL file trax\xsl\foo.xsl is OK; 
( ! ) Warning: C:\wamp\bin\apache\Apache2.4.4 in C:\wamp\www\sax\test.php on line 6
object(SaxonProcessor)[1]
null

First, instantiation of SaxonProcessor class always throws a weird Warning message, however the object is created.

Apache log:

Second, it always prepends working directory of Apache (not the webroot) to the files' path which makes it hard to feed source files to the methods. Also, it makes it impossible to set files on a different drive. This is what happens when just a relative path to xsl file is given:
