[xep-support] SUPPORT_XSL11 and rx:change-bar-begin?

[Kevin Brown]

Bob:

Most of all XSL 1.1 options were initially implemented through an XSL
contained within xep.jar that transforms the XSL FO 1.1 structures to the
already implemented and supported rx: extensions. It is the execution of
this XSL that requires memory and setting SUPPORT_XSL11 to false will
disable the execution of the XSL. So:

1) Yes, it would signal an error like "fo:xsl-11-feature" is not allowed as
a child of "fo:*" or something like that. It would not trigger an error for
the rx: extension equivalent features.

2) The current product plan for the next release includes internalizing all
of these XSL 1.1 features and removing the XSL completely (likely along with
SUPPORT_XSL11 as it would no longer be needed). Either the rx: extensions or
the XSL 1.1 equivalents would be supported without the initial XSL
transform.

This should be approximately in the September timeframe.

Hi,
The documentation says that XEP configuration option SUPPORT_XSL11 saves
memory if set 
to false.  However, what are the consequences when using
rx:change-bar-begin?  I know 
that fo:change-bar-begin is an XSL-FO 1.1 feature, but do you consider your
earlier 
extension rx:change-bar-begin a "1.1 feature"?  Does the processor signal an
error if 
you try to use a 1.1 feature with that option set to false?
