Hi,
I like jaxp: http://java.sun.com/xml/jaxp.html
used like this:
import javax.xml.transform.stream.*;
import javax.xml.transform.*
import java.io.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;
StreamSource stylesheet = new StreamSource(new File("/path/to/stylesheet.xsl"));
Transformer transformer =
TransformerFactory.newInstance().newTransformer(stylesheet);
transformer.setParameter("parameterName","parameterValue");
transformer.transform(new StreamSource(new File("/path/to/xml.xml")), new
StreamResult(response.getWriter());
If your version of xalan knows about jaxp (recent versions do) and is in your
classpath at run time, xalan will be used. It is nice because it removes
dependancy of your code on a particular xslt implementation.
