<BODY>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>Thank you I can now run XEP inside of Jboss.</FONT>
</P>
<P> <FONT SIZE=2>I was wondering, I am getting some extremely slow processing times, in fact I am noticing that XEP takes at least 50% more time to render a 2 page PDF document compared to FOP. I was wondering are there any performance tuning tips you may suggest ?</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>MessageRob,</FONT>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>> I am in the process of evaluating your software. I have been trying</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> (unsuccessfully) to embed XEP into my JBoss application.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>The problem is due to incorrect class loader manipulations </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>in JBoss: java.lang.String used by your application and java.lang.String used to load system properties are loaded by two different loaders, and appear as different classes. It causes problems for applications </FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>trying to enumerate system properties via java.util.Enumeration: you </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>cannot cast obtained values to java.lang.String because the types </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>don't match :-).</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>The problem has been already addressed in XEP 3.5.4. I suggest </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>upgrading XEP to the latest version.</FONT>
</P>
