Package net.sf.saxon.trans

This package provides a miscellaneous collection of helper classes for XSLT transformation.

Interface Summary

Interface	Description
CommandLineOptions.ParamSetter
GlobalVariableManager	This interface provides access to a collection of global variables.
Maker<T>	Interface representing a factory class for instances of a specific type
Mode.RuleAction	Interface for helper classes used to process all the rules in the Mode
Mode.RuleFilter	Interface for helper classes used to filter a chain of rules
NonDelegatingURIResolver	This is a marker interface: if a URIResolver implements this interface and returns null from its resolve() method, then the standard URI resolver will not be invoked.
SimpleMode.RuleGroupAction	Interface used around a group of rules - principally at the group start and the group end

Class Summary

Class	Description
CommandLineOptions	This is a helper class for classes such as net.sf.saxon.Transform and net.sf.saxon.Query that process command line options
CompilerInfo	This class exists to hold information associated with a specific XSLT compilation episode.
ComponentTest
CompoundMode	A CompoundMode is a mode representing the templates contained within an xsl:override element in a using package together with the rules in the corresponding mode of the base package.
ConfigurationReader	Class used to read a config.xml file and transfer all settings from the file to the Configuration
DecimalFormatManager	DecimalFormatManager manages the collection of named and unnamed decimal formats, for use by the format-number() function.
DecimalSymbols	This class is modelled on Java's DecimalFormatSymbols, but it allows the use of any Unicode character to represent symbols such as the decimal point and the grouping separator, whereas DecimalFormatSymbols restricts these to a char (1-65535).
DynamicLoader	Utility class used to perform dynamic loading of user-hook implementations
Err	Class containing utility methods for handling error messages
Instantiator<T>	Interface representing a factory class for instantiating instances of a specific class
KeyDefinition	Corresponds to a single xsl:key declaration.
KeyDefinitionSet	A set of xsl:key definitions in a stylesheet that share the same name
KeyIndex	A key index is an index maintained to support xsl:key key definitions, including both user-defined keys and keys added by the optimizer.
KeyManager	KeyManager manages the set of key definitions in a stylesheet, and the indexes associated with these key definitions.
Mode	A Mode is a collection of rules; the selection of a rule to apply to a given element is determined by a Pattern.
SaxonErrorCode	The class acts as a register of Saxon-specific error codes.
ShallowSkipRuleSet	A built-in set of template rules that ignores the current node and does an apply-templates to its children.
SimpleMode	A Mode is a collection of rules; the selection of a rule to apply to a given element is determined by a Pattern.
StylesheetCache	A cache of the stylesheets (as XsltExecutables) used in calls to the fn:transform function, in a stylesheet or query.
SymbolicName	The symbolic name of a component consists of the component kind (e.g.
SymbolicName.F	Subclass of SymbolicName used for function names (including the arity)
TextOnlyCopyRuleSet	The built-in rule set used for 1.0 and 2.0, which for document and element nodes does an apply-templates to children, and for text nodes and attribute nodes copies the node.
Timer	Utility class for collecting and reporting timing information, used only under diagnostic control
TypeAliasManager	Manager for saxon:type-alias declarations in a stylesheet.
XmlCatalogResolver	Provides the interface to the Apache catalog resolver.

Enum Summary

Enum	Description
FunctionStreamability	Enumeration class giving the different streamability categories defined for stylesheet functions in XSLT 3.0
Visibility	Enumeration class giving the different visibility levels defined for components in XSLT 3.0

Exception Summary

Exception	Description
LicenseException	Exception thrown when there are problems with the license file
NoDynamicContextException	This exception class is used when early (compile-time) evaluation of an expression is attempted, and the expression requires knowledge of the current dateTime or implicit timezone.
QuitParsingException	An exception used to signal that no more input is required from the parser, and that parsing can therefore be abandoned early (but without signaling any error to the user)
UncheckedXPathException	When tree construction is deferred, innocuous methods such as NodeInfo#getLocalName() may trigger a dynamic error.
XPathException	XPathException is used to indicate an error (static or dynamic) in an XPath expression, or in a query or stylesheet.
XPathException.Circularity	Subclass of XPathException used to report circularities

Package net.sf.saxon.trans Description

This package provides a miscellaneous collection of helper classes for XSLT transformation. They are of no direct interest to user applications, except for the XPathException class, which is used to represent many errors in public methods.
