Using an External XSLT Processor

In addition to a built-in XSLT processor, Stylus Studio includes several third-party XSLT processors, including Xalan-J, MSXML .NET, and Saxon (6 and 8). Note, however, that only the following XSLT processors support Stylus Studio stylesheet debugging and backmapping functionality:

  • Stylus Studio's built-in XSLT processor
  • Xalan-J
  • MSXML .NET
  • Saxon 6 and 8

These features are not supported by other XSLT processors, including others bundled with Stylus Studio (MSXML 4.0, for example).

Note

 

You can use only the built-in XML parser with Stylus Studio.
