public abstract class AbstractXsltView

extends AbstractView

Convenient superclass for views rendered using an XSLT stylesheet. Subclasses must provide the XML W3C document to transform. They do not need to concern themselves with XSLT.

Properties:

• stylesheet: no transform is null
• root: name of the root element
• uriResolver: URIResolver used in the transform
• cache (optional, default=true): debug setting only

Setting cache to false will cause the templates object to be reloaded for each rendering. This is useful during development, but will seriously affect performance in production and isn't threadsafe.
