XSL Transformation (XSLT) Processor

The Oracle XSLT engine fully supports the W3C 1.0 XSL Transformations recommendation. It has the following features:

Enables standards-based transformation of XML information inside and outside the database on any platform.
Supports Java extensibility and for additional performance comes natively compiled into the Oracle8i Release 3 (8.1.7) database.

The Oracle XML Parsers, Version 2 include an integrated XSL Transformation (XSLT) Processor for transforming XML data using XSL stylesheets. Using the XSLT processor, you can transform XML documents from XML to XML, HTML, or virtually any other text-based format.

How to use the XSLT Processor is described in Chapter 17, "Using XML Parser for Java".
