1. Create the XSLT stylesheet.
2. Read the source document.
3. Transform the source document.

The Caucho XSL package supports two related stylesheet languages. XSLT (W3C 1.0) and 'StyleScript'. Strict XSLT stylesheets are created by parsing the XML externally, then generating the stylesheet:

StylesheetFactory factory = new Xsl();
Stylesheet style = factory.newStylesheet("mystyle.xsl");

StreamTransformer transformer = style.newStreamTransformer();

WriteStream os = Vfs.openWrite("test.html");
transformer.transform("test.xml", os);
os.close();

StyleScript stylesheets just use a different stylesheet factory.

StylesheetFactory factory = new StyleScript();
Stylesheet style = factory.newStylesheet("mystyle.xsl");

StreamTransformer transformer = style.newStreamTransformer();

WriteStream os = Vfs.openWrite("test.html");
transformer.transform("test.xml", os);
os.close();

Transformers

• StreamTransformer - print directly to an output stream
• StringTransformer - create a string from the result
• NodeTransformer - append the results to an XML node

Because XSL produces an XML tree, XslWriter contains extra methods for constructing the tree.

The writer methods, e.g.
