Hello everyone,

I have created a document in memory using the following code

DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
DocumentBuilder builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
Document document = builder.newDocument();
Element root = document.getDocumentElement();
document.setXmlVersion("1.0");
Node rootNode =
document.appendChild(document.createElement("ExportRH"));
(I add all the fields here)

Then, once the document is created, I pass it to the following method
which transforms it using a stylesheet:

private void transform(InputStream xsltStream, Object xmlStream,
OutputStream outputFile) throws TransformerConfigurationException,
TransformerException, ParserConfigurationException, SAXException,
IOException {
 DocumentBuilderFactory builderfactory =
DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
 DocumentBuilder builder = builderfactory.newDocumentBuilder();
 Document document = null;

 if  (xmlStream instanceof String)
    document = builder.parse((String)xmlStream);
 else
    document = (Document)xmlStream;
//builder.parse((InputStream)xmlStream);

 Source xsltSource = new StreamSource(xsltStream);
 Source source = new DOMSource(document);
 Result result = new StreamResult(outputFile);
 TransformerFactory factory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
 Templates transformation = factory.newTemplates(xsltSource);
 Transformer transformer = transformation.newTransformer();

 transformer.transform(source, result);

}

It works fine until I have non-us characters.  Then I receive a
TransformerException.  I could serialize it and transform it on disk
but I was looking for a solution that would do the whole thing in
memory.

Can someone help me?  I know this is trivial, but I'm not familiar with
XML.

Thanks

Sebastien
