package net.sf.saxon

This package provides the core classes of the SAXON XSLT library.

Some of the more important classes are listed below:

Query:
This is the command line interface to the XQuery processor, allowing you to run a supplied query against a given source document.

Transform:
This is the command line interface to the XSLT processor, allowing you to apply a given stylesheet to a given source document.

Configuration:
This class holds all the Saxon configuration information, and acts as the fundamental factory class holding central resources and creating components such as validators and serializers.

PreparedStylesheet:
This represents a compiled XSLT stylesheet in memory. It is Saxon's implementation of the javax.xml.transform.Templates interface defined in JAXP 1.1

Controller:
This class represents the context information for a single execution of an XSLT stylesheet, and allows the application to process the tree navigationally. It is Saxon's implementation of the Transformer interface defined in JAXP 1.1. It calls user-supplied handlers registered with the RuleManager.

  • Class
    Description
    A TransformerFactory instance can be used to create Transformer and Template objects.
    This class holds details of user-selected configuration options for a set of transformations and/or queries.
    Marker interface to represent an API that is provided as a layer on top of this Configuration
    This class contains constants representing features of the software that may or may not be licensed.
    The Controller underpins Saxon's implementation of the JAXP Transformer class, and represents an executing instance of a transformation or query.
    A Gizmo is a simple tool for performing a particular easily specified transformation on an XML document, for example deleting or renaming all the elements with a particular name.
    This interface provides access to methods whose implementation depends on the chosen platform (typically Java or .NET)
    This PreparedStylesheet class represents a Stylesheet that has been prepared for execution (or "compiled").
    This Query class provides a command-line interface to the Saxon XQuery processor.
    This Transform class is the command-line entry point to the Saxon XSLT Processor.
    A TransformerFactory instance can be used to create Transformer and Template objects.
    The Version class holds the SAXON version information.
