Saxon

Using Saxon 12.1 HE, the code

        Processor processor = new Processor(false);

        Configuration configuration = processor.getUnderlyingConfiguration();
        configuration.setParseOptions(configuration.getParseOptions().withParserProperty("http://www.oracle.com/xml/jaxp/properties/" + "entityExpansionLimit", "128000"));

        XsltCompiler xsltCompiler = processor.newXsltCompiler();

        XsltExecutable xsltExecutable = xsltCompiler.compile(new File("C:\\Users\\marti\\Downloads\\entity-expansion-size.xsl"));

        System.out.println(xsltExecutable);

with the XSLT from https://saxonica.plan.io/attachments/64064 gives an exception indicating that the parser property I have set is not taken into account by the parser XsltCompiler uses:

When I change the code to use a DocumentBuilder e.g.

        Processor processor = new Processor(false);

        Configuration configuration = processor.getUnderlyingConfiguration();
        configuration.setParseOptions(configuration.getParseOptions().withParserProperty("http://www.oracle.com/xml/jaxp/properties/" + "entityExpansionLimit", "128000"));

        DocumentBuilder docBuilder = processor.newDocumentBuilder();

        XdmNode doc = docBuilder.build(new File("C:\\Users\\marti\\Downloads\\entity-expansion-size.xsl"));
        
        XsltCompiler xsltCompiler = processor.newXsltCompiler();

        XsltExecutable xsltExecutable = xsltCompiler.compile(doc.asSource());

        System.out.println(xsltExecutable);

the code runs fine and the file is parsed and compiled fine, meaning the parser property is taken into account.

Shouldn't that also happen for the direct use of XsltCompiler.compile(file)?
