Inside XSLT

Interfacing Saxon to Java

The Saxon processor also defines an API for use with Java, but, of course, the details differ from Xalan. Here, I create a new Java class, saxonjava, to show how to create transformations using the Saxon API, version 6.0.2. You start by creating a new XSLT Processorobject by calling the Processorclass’s newInstancemethod in the file saxonjava.java:

import java.io.*; 
import org.xml.sax.*; 
import org.w3c.dom.*; 
import com.icl.saxon.trax.*; 

public class saxonjava 
{

    public static void main(String args[]) 
        throws ProcessorException, ProcessorFactoryException, 
        TransformException, SAXException, IOException 
    {
        Processor processor = Processor.newInstance("xslt"); 
        . 
        . 
        . 

Next, you must create a Templatesobject based on the XSL ...
