In FactoryFinder.newInstanceNoServiceLoader method, L223, 226 - NoSuchMethodException will be thrown if such method doesn't exist. creationMethod will not be null. Thanks - yes - you're right of course - no need to check for null... L236 - this change is not needed, right? The method is a static no-arg method. You passed an additional argument creationMethod as the first parameter although it's harmless as it's ignored. Oops - my bad. That's a mistake - I did too many successive changes - should be creationMethod.invoke(null) of course. And my tests didn't even catch it!

A minor comment: 151 static T newInstance(Class type, String className, ClassLoader cl, boolean doFallback) 152 throws TransformerFactoryConfigurationError 153 { 154 return newInstance(type, className, cl, doFallback, false, false); 155 } The FactoryFinder.newInstance method 4-argument version is only called by TransformerFactory.newInstance(String factoryClassName, ClassLoader classLoader). Perhaps you can clean this up TransformerFactory to call the Factory.newInstance method 6-argument version. 3 successive boolean parameters... I hate that ;-) Yes I think I can do this cleanup...

Thanks Mandy,
