Transformer
From Documentation
Transformer
- Java API: Transformer
Employment/Purpose
Transformer is used to translate a XML document to another with a XSTL template.
<?page contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8"?>
<x:transformer xsl="book.xsl" xmlns:x="xml">
<book>
<title>ZK - Ajax without the JavaScript Framework</title>
<for-who>Web application designers and programmers who wish to implement
rich Ajax web applications in the simplest way.</for-who>
<author>Henri Chen and Robbie Cheng</author>
</book>
</x:transformer>
where transformer is a component of the XML component set, so we have to specify the namespace: xml. Otherwise, the native namespace is assumed, and the element is generated directly.
Then, let us assume the content of book.xsl is as follows.
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="/">
<html>
<head>
<title>Book Info</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Book Info</h1>
<xsl:apply-templates select="book"/>
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="book">
<dl>
<dt>Title:</dt>
<dd><xsl:value-of select="title"/></dd>
<dt>Who is this book for:</dt>
<dd><xsl:value-of select="for-who"/></dd>
<dt>Authors</dt>
<dd><xsl:value-of select="author"/></dd>
</dl>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Then, the generated XML output will be XHTML as follows.
<html>
<head>
<META http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
<title>Book Info</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Book Info</h1>
<dl>
<dt>Title:</dt>
<dd> ZK - Ajax without the JavaScript Framework</dd>
<dt>Who is this book for:</dt>
<dd>Web application designers and programmers who wish to implement
rich Ajax web applications in the simplest way.</dd>
<dt>Authors</dt>
<dd> Henri Chen and Robbie Cheng</dd>
</dl>
</body>
</html>
