[xsl] tough problem: infinit loop caused by XSL recusive call

["Di Luo" <dluo at businessedge dot com>]

Hi,

1. I try to transform a XML file to a text file by using transform class of
xalan 2.0.
2. I call the following template with countLoop select="14" that cause the
infinite loop and stack overflow,
however if I set select="8" it works fine.

3. Does anyone know how to the reason? How to fix it? Is there any
properties file which define the default stack size for xalan 2.0?

Thank you in advance!
