Interface Initializer


  • public interface Initializer
    This interface can be implemented by users (there are no implementations in Saxon itself). It is used only when Saxon is invoked from the command line, and the -init:class option is used on the command line to nominate an implementation of this class. The initialize() method of the supplied class will then be called to perform any user-defined initialization of the Configuration.

    The initializer is invoked after all other options on the command line have been processed; the initializer can therefore examine the Configuration to see what options have been set, and it can modify them accordingly.
