Interface SourceResolver
- All Known Implementing Classes:
Configuration
public interface SourceResolver
This interface defines a SourceResolver. A SourceResolver can be registered as
part of the Configuration, and enables new kinds of Source to be recognized
beyond those that are natively recognized by Saxon.
The task of the SourceResolver is to take any Source as input, and to return
a Source that has native support in Saxon: that is, one of the classes
StreamSource, SAXSource, DOMSource, NodeInfo
,
or PullSource
