Interface XSLProcessor

All Superinterfaces:

org.xml.sax.Parser

All Known Implementing Classes:

XSLProcessorImpl

public interface XSLProcessor

extends org.xml.sax.Parser

typical usage:

// find an implementation, and construct it
XSLProcessor xsl = new XSLProcessorImpl();
xsl.setParser(sourceParser, styleParser);
xsl.loadStylesheet(someInputSource);

// maybe clone for re-use ...

// maybe set some parameters ...

// attach an output handler
xsl.setDocumentHandler(someHandler);
xsl.parse(someOtherInputSource);

Method Summary

java.lang.Object	clone() clone after loadStylesheet() enables us to re-use a transformer, without recompiling the stylesheet
void	loadStylesheet(org.xml.sax.InputSource stylesheet) loadStylesheet must be called before parse but after setParser
void	setOutputMethodHandler(OutputMethodHandler handler) set the output target for the transform
void	setParameter(java.lang.String name, java.lang.Object obj) set the run-time parameters for the stylesheet
void	setParser(org.xml.sax.Parser parser) setParser must be called before any other methods
void	setParser(org.xml.sax.Parser sourceParser, org.xml.sax.Parser stylesheetParser) set one parser for the stylesheet, and another for the input
void	setSaxExtensionFilter(java.lang.String name, SaxFilterMaker xrap) sets a special kind of extension element processor N.B.

Method Detail

setParser

public void setParser(org.xml.sax.Parser parser)

setParser must be called before any other methods

setParser

public void setParser(org.xml.sax.Parser sourceParser,
                      org.xml.sax.Parser stylesheetParser)

set one parser for the stylesheet, and another for the input

setOutputMethodHandler

public void setOutputMethodHandler(OutputMethodHandler handler)

set the output target for the transform

loadStylesheet

public void loadStylesheet(org.xml.sax.InputSource stylesheet)
                    throws java.io.IOException,
                           org.xml.sax.SAXException

loadStylesheet must be called before parse but after setParser

clone

public java.lang.Object clone()

clone after loadStylesheet() enables us to re-use a transformer, without recompiling the stylesheet

Overrides:

clone in class java.lang.Object

setParameter

public void setParameter(java.lang.String name,
                         java.lang.Object obj)

set the run-time parameters for the stylesheet

setSaxExtensionFilter

public void setSaxExtensionFilter(java.lang.String name,
                                  SaxFilterMaker xrap)

sets a special kind of extension element processor N.B. this signature will probably change in future releases
