Library: XSLT support (OMXSLT) Import: omxslt.xmd

Return type: stylesheet Returns: A compiled XSLT stylesheet.

Declaration

export external stylesheet function 
   compile value string source stylesheet

      

Argument definitions

stylesheet

is the XSLT stylesheet to be compiled.

Use compile to generate a pre-compiled form of the XSLT stylesheet. In situations where a stylesheet will be used many times on multiple inputs, this will likely reduce processing time.

Usage Notes

It is typically not necessary to use compile, as OmniMark can automatically compile an XSLT stylesheet from source form to compiled form when the need arises. However, should the same transformation be required for multiple inputs, compiling the stylesheet should improve performance.

Example

  import "omxslt.xmd" prefixed by xslt.
  
  process
     local string          filenames  initial { "input1.xml", "input2.xml" }
     local xslt.stylesheet stylesheet initial { xslt.compile file "stylesheet1.xsl" }
  
     repeat over filenames as filename
        do xml-parse scan xslt.reader with stylesheet into file filename
           suppress
        done
     again
  
  
  element #implied
     suppress
