System Programming Interfaces

• The Context class no longer implements the XSLT 1.1 WD interface org.w3c.xsl.XSLTContext.
• Dropped the classes in com.icl.saxon.handlers (ElementHandler etc). It is still possible for a Java application to register a NodeHandler to receive events; this must now be written as an implementation of the net.sf.saxon.NodeHandler interface. See the ShowBooks.java sample application to see how.
• It is no longer possible to specify a user-defined collation using the data-type or lang attribute of xsl:sort; instead, it must be specified using the collation attribute, with a saxon:collation element that maps the named collation to a Java class that implements the JDK java.util.Comparator interface.
