SXE

Some Xalan Extensions (SXE)

Adds functionality to Xalan that I've found helpful over the last 20 years of contracting.

See the example below (this one is adding logging to your XSLT, but there are other helper elements and functions). For further information see the javadoc which is pretty extensive.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" 
                version="1.0"
                xmlns:log="xalan://net.adamjenkins.sxe.elements.Logging"
                xmlns:java="http://xml.apache.org/xslt/java"
                exclude-result-prefixes="java"
                extension-element-prefixes="log">
    <xsl:output method="xml"/>
    
    <xsl:variable name="var">world</xsl:variable>
    
    <xsl:template match="/">
    	<log:debug message="hello {$var} here is an attribute {./someelement/@someattribute}"/>
	<log:info select="./someotherelement/@someotherattribute"/>
    </xsl:template>            
</xsl:stylesheet>
