Class Transform

java.lang.Object
  extended bynet.sf.saxon.Transform
Direct Known Subclasses:
DOMTransform, JDOMTransform

public class Transform
extends java.lang.Object

This Transform class is the entry point to the Saxon XSLT Processor. This class is provided to control the processor from the command line.

The XSLT syntax supported conforms to the W3C XSLT 1.0 and XPath 1.0 recommendation. Only the transformation language is implemented (not the formatting objects). Saxon extensions are documented in the file extensions.html

Transform

public Transform()
Method Detail

main

public static void main(java.lang.String[] args)
                 throws java.lang.Exception
Main program, can be used directly from the command line.

The format is:

java net.sf.saxon.Transform [options] source-file style-file >output-file

followed by any number of parameters in the form {keyword=value}... which can be referenced from within the stylesheet.

This program applies the XSL style sheet in style-file to the source XML document in source-file.

Parameters:
args - List of arguments supplied on operating system command line
Throws:
java.lang.Exception - Indicates that a compile-time or run-time error occurred

setFactoryConfiguration

public void setFactoryConfiguration(boolean schemaAware)
                             throws java.lang.RuntimeException
Set the configuration in the TransformerFactory. This is designed to be overridden in a subclass

Parameters:
schemaAware -
Throws:
java.lang.RuntimeException

doTransform

public void doTransform(java.lang.String[] args,
                        java.lang.String command)
Support method for main program. This support method can also be invoked from subclasses that support the same command line interface

Parameters:
args - the command-line arguments
command - the form of the command as written by the user, to be used in error messages

preprocess

public java.util.List preprocess(java.util.List sources)
                          throws XPathException
Preprocess the list of sources. This method exists so that it can be overridden in a subclass

Throws:
XPathException

getConfiguration

protected Configuration getConfiguration()
Get the configuration.


quit

protected static void quit(java.lang.String message,
                           int code)
Exit with a message

Parameters:
message - The message to be output
code - The result code to be returned to the operating system shell

loadDocuments

public static java.lang.Object loadDocuments(java.lang.String sourceFileName,
                                             boolean useURLs,

                                             boolean useSAXSource)
                                      throws javax.xml.transform.TransformerException
Load a document, or all the documents in a directory, given a filename or URL

Returns:
if sourceFileName represents a single source document, return a Source object representing that document. If sourceFileName represents a directory, return a List containing multiple Source objects, one for each file in the directory.
Throws:
javax.xml.transform.TransformerException
