Dear XSL-FO Folk,
I'm constructing a PDF which uses an external graphic (using the
fo:external-graphic tag), and I'd like the entire transform to fail if
the image is not available. Does anyone know of a way to make this
happen? I've checked the source of
org.apache.fop.fo.flow.ExternalGraphic.java, and found that in the
bind() method there's a comment appearing as a placeholder (in the
latest fop-0.94, line 82) for where an exception could be thrown that
says:
//TODO Report to caller so he can decide to throw an exception
Now if I change this to throw a FOPException at that point, it behaves
as I need it to, but I'd rather not have to have a local modification of
the source if there's a better way of handling it. Without that change,
it just logs an error and carries on.
I'm using:
fop-0.94 (although I've tried 0.95 too)
Java 1.5.0_11
