Xalan: The org.apache.xalan.xsltc.trax.TransformerFactoryImpl Class

Extends: javax.xml.transform.sax.SAXTransformerFactory

Implements: org.apache.xalan.xsltc.compiler.SourceLocator, javax.xml.transform.ErrorListener

Overview

This class is the implementation of a JAXP1.1 TransformerFactory for Translets. This class extends javax.xml.transform.sax.SAXTransformerFactory to provide SAX-specific factory methods.

A TrAX TransformerFactory is an objects that processes transformation instructions, and produces Templates. A Templates object provides a Transformer, which transforms one or more Sources into one or more Results.

User should ensure Thread safety while using TransformerFactory. TransformerFactory may not perform multiple concurrent operarions.

Method Overviews

Methods in this class serve as a factory for a concrete implementation of an TransformerFactory, serve as a direct factory for Transformer objects, serve as a factory for Templates objects, and manage processor specific features.

Example of newInstance()

newInstance() is used to used to create an instance of JAXP TransformerFactory. This method is inherited from JAXP TransformerFactory.

TransformerFactory tFactory = TransformerFactoryImpl.newInstance();

Example of how to use TransformerFactoryImpl

public void useTransformerFactoryImpl(String stylesheetURI,String xmlfileURI,String outURI){

        try{

            TransformerFactory tFactory = TransformerFactoryImpl.newInstance();

            StreamSource source = new StreamSource(stylesheetURI);

            Transformer transformer = tFactory.newTransformer(source);

            StreamSource sourceXML = new StreamSource(xmlfileURI);

            StreamResult result = new StreamResult(outURI);

            transformer.transform(sourceXML, result);

        }catch(Exception e){

            e.printStackTrace();

        }

    }
