package net.sf.saxon.style
This package provides classes used during the compilation of an XSLT stylesheet. The instances of these classes are discarded once compilation is complete, and they play no role in executing the transformation at run-time, except when tracing and debugging are invoked.
The class StyleElement represents an element node on the stylesheet tree. Subclasses
of StyleElement represent individual stylesheet elements, and are generally named according to
the XSLT element name, for example XSLApplyTemplates, XSLChoose. The class XSLStylesheet
is used for the xsl:stylesheet element in each stylesheet module, and in particular for the
xsl:stylesheet element in the principal stylesheet module.
During construction of the stylesheet tree, the class StyleNodeFactory is nominated to the Builder as the factory class responsible for creating element nodes on the tree. It is this class that decides which subclass of StyleElement to use for each element appearing in the stylesheet. For extension elements, the decision is delegated to a user-created ExtensionElementFactory.
Each class provides a number of methods supporting the various phases of processing. The sequence
of events sometimes varies slightly, but in general the first phase is done by prepareAttributes,
which performs local validation of the attributes of each instruction. The second phase is represented
by the validate method, which does global validation, fixup of references, and type checking.
The third phase is done by the compile method, which generates Instruction and
Expression objects. Further processing (local and global optimization) is then done on these
Instruction objects, and is no longer the responsibility of this package.

ClassDescriptionThis element is a surrogate for an extension element (or indeed an xsl element) for which no implementation is available.This class represents an attribute value template.Represents an XSLT compilation episode, compiling a single package.The object represents a declaration (that is, a top-level element) in a stylesheet.This element represents a top-level element in a user-defined namespace, or a child/descendant of such an element.An ExpressionContext represents the context for an XPath expression written in the stylesheet.Abstract class representing an extension instructionThis class represents a literal result element in the style sheet (typically an HTML element to be output).A class to represent an XSLT package version such as 1.12.5 or 3.0-alphaA class to handle a set of package version rangesRepresents both the stylesheet module at the root of the import tree, that is, the module that includes or imports all the others, and also the XSLT package that has this stylesheet module as its root.A PublicStylesheetFunctionLibrary filters a StylesheetFunctionLibrary to include only those functions whose visibility is final or public.Marker interface for elements that declare a variable which is in-scope within their bodyHelper class for xsl:variable and xsl:param elements.Abstract superclass for all element nodes in the stylesheet.Class StyleNodeFactory.This interface is implemented by all top-level XSL elements that can contain local variable declarations.A StylesheetFunctionLibrary contains functions defined by the user in a stylesheet.A stylesheet module represents a module of a stylesheet.A (compiled) stylesheet package.Define the static context for expressions appearing between curly braces in a text value template.A text node in an XSLT 3.0 stylesheet that may or may not contain a text value templateThis is a filter inserted into the input pipeline for processing stylesheet modules, whose task is to evaluate use-when expressions and discard those parts of the stylesheet module for which the use-when attribute evaluates to false.This class implements the static context used for evaluating use-when and other static expressions in XSLT 3.0 A new instance of this class is created for each use-when expression encountered; there are therefore no issues with reusability.Represents an xsl:accept element in an XSLT 3.0 package manifest.Handler for xsl:accept and xsl:expose elements in stylesheet.Handler for xsl:accumulator elements in a stylesheet (XSLT 3.0).Handler for xsl:accumulator-rule elements in a stylesheet (XSLT 3.0).An xsl:analyze-string elements in the stylesheet.An xsl:apply-imports element in the stylesheetAn xsl:apply-templates element in the stylesheetAn xsl:assert element in an XSLT 3.0 stylesheet.xsl:attribute element in stylesheet.An xsl:attribute-set element in the stylesheet.A xsl:break element in the stylesheetAbstract class containing functionality common to xsl:break and xsl:next-iterationAn xsl:call-template element in the stylesheetHandler for xsl:catch elements in stylesheet.An xsl:character-map declaration in the stylesheet.An xsl:choose element in the stylesheet.An xsl:choose or xsl:switch element in the stylesheet.An xsl:comment elements in the stylesheet.An xsl:context-item element in the stylesheet.Handler for xsl:copy elements in stylesheet.An xsl:copy-of element in the stylesheet.Handler for xsl:decimal-format elements in stylesheet.An xsl:document instruction in the stylesheet.An xsl:element element in the stylesheet.Handler for xsl:evaluate elements in XSLT 3.0 stylesheet.Represents an xsl:expose element in an XSLT 3.0 package manifest.xsl:fallback element in stylesheet.Handler for xsl:for-each elements in stylesheet.Handler for xsl:for-each-group elements in stylesheet.Handler for xsl:fork elements in XSLT 3.0 stylesheet.Handler for xsl:function elements in stylesheet (XSLT 2.0).Abstract class to represent an xsl:include or xsl:import element in the stylesheet.This class defines common behaviour across xsl:variable, xsl:param, and xsl:with-paramAn xsl:global-context-item declaration in the stylesheetAn xsl:param element representing a global parameter (stylesheet parameter) in the stylesheet.Handler for xsl:variable elements appearing as a child of xsl:stylesheet.Handler for xsl:if elements in stylesheet.xsl:import element in the stylesheet.Compile-time representation of an xsl:import-schema declaration in a stylesheetxsl:include element in the stylesheet.The class implements a xsl:item-type declaration in a stylesheet.Handler for xsl:iterate elements in stylesheet.Handler for xsl:key elements in stylesheet.Common superclass for XSLT elements whose content template produces a text value: xsl:text, xsl:value-of, xsl:attribute, xsl:comment, xsl:namespace, and xsl:processing-instructionAn xsl:param element representing a local parameter (template or function parameter) in the stylesheet.Handler for xsl:variable elements acting as local variable declarations in a stylesheet.Handler for xsl:map instructions in an XSLT 3.0 stylesheet.Handler for xsl:map-entry instructions in an XSLT 3.0 stylesheet.Handler for xsl:matching-substring and xsl:non-matching-substring elements in stylesheet.Handler for xsl:merge elements in stylesheet.An xsl:merge-key element in the stylesheet.Implements the xsl:merge-source element available in XSLT 3.0 as a child of xsl:merge.An xsl:message element in the stylesheet.Handler for xsl:mode elements in stylesheet.Class representing xsl:stylesheet, xsl:transform, or xsl:packageAn xsl:namespace element in the stylesheet.An xsl:namespace-alias element in the stylesheet.An xsl:next-iteration element in the stylesheetAn xsl:next-match element in the stylesheetAn xsl:number element in the stylesheet.An xsl:on-completion element in the stylesheet (XSLT 3.0).An xsl:on-empty element in the stylesheet.An xsl:on-non-empty element in the stylesheet.A function library that recognizes the function name "xsl:original", which may appear within xsl:overrideHandler for xsl:otherwise elements in stylesheet.An xsl:output element in the stylesheet.An xsl:output-character element in the stylesheet.Represents an xsl:override element in a package manifest.Handler for xsl:package elements.Handler for xsl:perform-sort elements in stylesheet (XSLT 2.0).An xsl:preserve-space or xsl:strip-space elements in stylesheet.An xsl:processing-instruction element in the stylesheet.An xsl:result-document element in the stylesheet.An xsl:sequence element in the stylesheet.An xsl:sort element in the stylesheet.Handler for xsl:source-document element in XSLT 3.0 stylesheet.An xsl:stylesheet or xsl:transform element in the stylesheet.An xsl:switch element in the stylesheet (XSLT 4.0).An xsl:template element in the style sheet.Handler for xsl:text elements in stylesheet.Handler for xsl:try elements in stylesheet.Handler for xsl:use-package elements in stylesheet.An xsl:value-of element in the stylesheet.Handler for xsl:when elements in stylesheet.An xsl:where-populated element in the stylesheet.An xsl:with-param element in the stylesheet.
