Chapter 20. The System.Xml.Xsl Namespace
The System.Xml.Xsl
namespace provides support for Extensible Stylesheet Language
Transformations (XSLT). XSLT is a W3C specification that describes
how to transform one XML document into another with the use of
stylesheet templates. For example, a common use of XSLT is to
transform an XML document into standard HTML by transforming the
specific elements of the input XML document into comparable HTML
elements. XSLT templates use XPath expression syntax to specify which
nodes of the input XML are transformed.
The
XslTransform class constructs the transform
object. It loads a stylesheet and applies its templates to an XML
document to output the transformed data. The
XsltArgumentList class creates objects for XSLT
parameters that can be loaded into the stylesheet at runtime.
XsltContext provides the XSLT processor with the
current context node information used for XPath expression
resolution. Figure 20-1 shows the types in this
namespace.
