public class Processor extends java.lang.Object
TheProcessor
class serves three purposes: it allows global Saxon configuration options to be set; it acts as a factory for generating XQuery, XPath, and XSLT compilers; and it owns certain shared resources such as the Saxon NamePool and compiled schemas. This is the first object that a Saxon application should create. Once established, a Processor may be used in multiple threads.It is possible to run more than one Saxon Processor concurrently, but only when running completely independent workloads. Nothing can be shared between Processor instances. Within a query or transformation, all source documents and schemas must be built using the same Processor, which must also be used to compile the query or stylesheet.

Processor
public Processor(boolean licensedEdition)
Create a Processor- Parameters:
licensedEdition
- indicates whether the Processor requires features of Saxon that need a license file (that is, features not available in Saxon HE (Home Edition). If true, the method will create a Configuration appropriate to the version of the software that is running: for example, if running Saxon-EE, it will create an EnterpriseConfiguration. The method does not at this stage check that a license is available, and in the absence of a license, it should run successfully provided no features that require licensing are actually used. If the argument is set to false, a plain Home Edition Configuration is created unconditionally.
-
Processor
public Processor(Configuration config)
Create a Processor based on an existing Configuration. This constructor is useful for transition, when new components of an application are to use s9api interfaces but existing components use lower-level interfaces.- Parameters:
config
- the Configuration to be used by this processor- Since:
- 9.3
-
Processor
public Processor(javax.xml.transform.Source source) throws SaxonApiException
Create a Processor configured according to the settings in a supplied configuration file.- Parameters:
source
- the Source of the configuration file- Throws:
SaxonApiException
- if the configuration file cannot be read, or its contents are invalid- Since:
- 9.2
-

- a newly created XPathCompiler
-
newXsltCompiler
public XsltCompiler newXsltCompiler()
Create an XsltCompiler. An XsltCompiler is used to compile XSLT stylesheets.- Returns:
- a newly created XsltCompiler
- Throws:
java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException
- if this version of the Saxon product does not support XSLT processing

newXQueryCompiler
public XQueryCompiler newXQueryCompiler()
Create an XQueryCompiler. An XQueryCompiler is used to compile XQuery queries.- Returns:
- a newly created XQueryCompiler
- Throws:
java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException
- if this version of the Saxon product does not support XQuery processing
-
newSerializer
public Serializer newSerializer()
Create a Serializer- Returns:
- a new Serializer
- Since:
- 9.3
-
newSerializer
public Serializer newSerializer(java.io.OutputStream stream)
Create a Serializer initialized to write to a given OutputStream.Closing the output stream after use is the responsibility of the caller.
- Parameters:
stream
- The OutputStream to which the Serializer will write- Returns:
- a new Serializer
- Since:
- 9.3
-
newSerializer
public Serializer newSerializer(java.io.Writer writer)
Create a Serializer initialized to write to a given Writer.Closing the writer after use is the responsibility of the caller.
- Parameters:
writer
- The Writer to which the Serializer will write- Returns:
- a new Serializer
- Since:
- 9.3
-
newSerializer
public Serializer newSerializer(java.io.File file)
Create a Serializer initialized to write to a given File.- Parameters:
file
- The File to which the Serializer will write- Returns:
- a new Serializer
- Since:
- 9.3
-
registerExtensionFunction
public void registerExtensionFunction(ExtensionFunction function)
Register a simple external/extension function that is to be made available within any stylesheet, query, or XPath expression compiled under the control of this processor.This interface provides only for simple extension functions that have no side-effects and no dependencies on the static or dynamic context.
- Parameters:
function
- the implementation of the extension function.- Since:
- 9.4
-
registerExtensionFunction
public void registerExtensionFunction(ExtensionFunctionDefinition function)
Register an extension function that is to be made available within any stylesheet, query, or XPath expression compiled under the control of this processor. This method registers an extension function implemented as an instance ofExtensionFunctionDefinition
, using an arbitrary name and namespace.This interface allows extension functions that have dependencies on the static or dynamic context. It also allows an extension function to declare that it has side-effects, in which case calls to the function will be optimized less aggressively than usual, although the semantics are still to some degree unpredictable.
- Parameters:
function
- the implementation of the extension function.- Since:
- 9.2
-
getSchemaManager
public SchemaManager getSchemaManager()
Get the associated SchemaManager. The SchemaManager provides capabilities to load and cache XML schema definitions. There is exactly one SchemaManager in a schema-aware Processor, and none in a Processor that is not schema-aware. The SchemaManager is created automatically by the system.- Returns:
- the associated SchemaManager, or null if the Processor is not schema-aware.
-
isSchemaAware
public boolean isSchemaAware()
Test whether this processor is schema-aware- Returns:
- true if this this processor is licensed for schema processing, false otherwise
-
getSaxonProductVersion
public java.lang.String getSaxonProductVersion()
Get the user-visible Saxon product version, for example "9.0.0.1"- Returns:
- the Saxon product version, as a string
-
setXmlVersion
public void setXmlVersion(java.lang.String version)
Set the version of XML used by this Processor. If the value is set to "1.0", then output documents will be serialized as XML 1.0. This option also affects the characters permitted to appear in queries and stylesheets, and the characters that can appear in names (for example, in path expressions).Note that source documents specifying xml version="1.0" or "1.1" are accepted regardless of this setting.
- Parameters:
version
- must be one of the strings "1.0" or "1.1"- Throws:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException
- if any string other than "1.0" or "1.1" is supplied
-
getXmlVersion
public java.lang.String getXmlVersion()
Get the version of XML used by this Processor. If the value is "1.0", then input documents must be XML 1.0 documents, and output documents will be serialized as XML 1.0. This option also affects the characters permitted to appear in queries and stylesheets, and the characters that can appear in names (for example, in path expressions).- Returns:
- one of the strings "1.0" or "1.1"
-
setConfigurationProperty
public void setConfigurationProperty(java.lang.String name, java.lang.Object value)
Set a configuration property- Parameters:
name
- the name of the option to be set. The names of the options available are listed as constants in classFeatureKeys
.value
- the value of the option to be set.- Throws:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException
- if the property name is not recognized
-
getConfigurationProperty
public java.lang.Object getConfigurationProperty(java.lang.String name)
Get the value of a configuration property- Parameters:
name
- the name of the option required. The names of the properties available are listed as constants in classFeatureKeys
.- Returns:

- Throws:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException
- if the property name is not recognized
-
getUnderlyingConfiguration
public Configuration getUnderlyingConfiguration()
Get the underlyingConfiguration
object that underpins this Processor. This method provides an escape hatch to internal Saxon implementation objects that offer a finer and lower-level degree of control than the s9api classes and methods. Some of these classes and methods may change from release to release.- Returns:
- the underlying Configuration object
-
writeXdmValue
public void writeXdmValue(XdmValue value, Destination destination) throws SaxonApiException
Write an XdmValue to a given destination. The sequence represented by the XdmValue is "normalized" as defined in the serialization specification (this is equivalent to constructing a document node in XSLT or XQuery with this sequence as the content expression), and the resulting document is then copied to the destination. If the destination is a serializer this has the effect of serializing the sequence as described in the W3C specifications.- Parameters:
value
- the value to be writtendestination
- the destination to which the value is to be written- Throws:
SaxonApiException
- if any failure occurs, for example a serialization error
