DOCBOOK-APPS: [Slides] Transformation with J-Xalan fails

[Gisbert Amm <gia at webde-ag dot de>]

Hello again,

after realizing that chunking isn't possible yet with C++ Xalan, I tried 
the Java Xalan commandline utility but I got a ClassNotFoundException.

With Google I didn't find any relevant hint and the Apache Xalan-J 
documentation isn't really helpful (for me, in this case).
It seemed to me as if I had to turn on the DTM with the flag 
-INCREMENTAL, but that's not recognised by Xalan.

Perhaps has somebody already had the same problem and can give me a 
hint. That would be really nice.

I'm using Xalan-J 2.4.1, Docbook XSL 1.57.0 and Slides 3.0.0 on a SuSE 
Linux 7.0 machine.

This is my commandline:

slides-3.0.0/demo > make
cd default && rm -f *.html && java -cp 
/netsite/java/xalan/bin/BCEL.jar:/netsite/java/xalan/bin/JLex.jar:/netsite/java/xalan/bin/bsf.jar:/netsite/java/xalan/bin/java_cup.jar:/netsite/java/xalan/bin/regexp.jar:/netsite/java/xalan/bin/runtime.jar:/netsite/java/xalan/bin/xalan.jar:/netsite/java/xalan/bin/xalansamples.jar:/netsite/java/xalan/bin/xalanservlet.jar:/netsite/java/xalan/bin/xercesImpl.jar:/netsite/java/xalan/bin/xml-apis.jar:/netsite/java/xalan/bin/xmlParserAPIs.jar:/netsite/java/xalan/bin/xsltc.jar 
org.apache.xalan.xslt.Process -IN source/slides.xml -XSL 
../../xsl/xhtml/default.xsl

Ant these are the error messages I get:

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException:

Thanks in advance.
