Converting XML with XSLT and Java

Here is the code in Java to do this. No external library is needed.


import java.io.*;

/**
* A simple demo of JAXP 1.1
*/
public class SimpleJaxp {

/**
* Accept two command line arguments: the name of
* an XML file, and the name of an XSLT stylesheet.
* The result of the transformation
* is written to stdout.
*/
public static void main(String[] args)
throws javax.xml.transform.TransformerException {
if (args.length != 2) {
System.err.println("Usage:");
System.err.println(" java " + SimpleJaxp.class.getName( )
+ " xmlFileName xsltFileName");
System.exit(1);
}

File xmlFile = new File(args[0]);
File xsltFile = new File(args[1]);

javax.xml.transform.Source xmlSource =
new javax.xml.transform.stream.StreamSource(xmlFile);
javax.xml.transform.Source xsltSource =
new javax.xml.transform.stream.StreamSource(xsltFile);
javax.xml.transform.Result result =
new javax.xml.transform.stream.StreamResult(System.out);

// create an instance of TransformerFactory
javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory transFact =
javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory.newInstance( );

javax.xml.transform.Transformer trans =
transFact.newTransformer(xsltSource);

trans.transform(xmlSource, result);
}
}
