Its popularity stems from its universality. Any computer can read a text file. With the proper tools, any computer can read any other computer's XML files. </p> <p>One of the most important of those tools is XSLT: Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformations. XSLT is a declarative language that allows you to translate your XML into arbitrary text output using a stylesheet. libxslt provides the functions to perform the transformation. </p> <p>libxslt is a free C language library written by Daniel Veillard for the GNOME project allowing you to write programs that perform XSLT transformations. <div class="note" style="margin-left: 0.5in; margin-right: 0.5in;"> <h3 class="title"> <a name="id2754803"></a>Note</h3> <p> While libxslt was written under the auspices of the GNOME project, it does not depend on any GNOME libraries. None are used in the example in this tutorial. </p> </div> </p> <p>This tutorial illustrates a simple program that reads an XML file, applies a stylesheet and saves the resulting output. This is not a program you would want to create yourself. xsltproc, which is included with the libxslt package, does the same thing and is more robust and full-featured. The program written for this tutorial is a stripped-down version of xsltproc designed to illustrate the functionality of libxslt. </p> <p>The full code for xsltproc is in <tt>xsltproc.c</tt> in the libxslt distribution. It also is available <a href="http://cvs.gnome.org/lxr/source/libxslt/libxslt/xsltproc.c" target="_top">on the web</a>. </p> <p>References: <div class="itemizedlist"><ul> <li><p> <a name="id2708005"></a><a href="http://www.w3.org/XML/" target="_top">W3C XML page</a> </p></li> <li><p> <a name="id2708026"></a><a href="http://www.w3.org/Style/XSL/" target="_top">W3C XSL page.</a> </p></li> </ul></div> </p> </div> <div class="sect1"> <a name="functions"></a><div class="titlepage"><div><h2 class="title" style="clear: both"> <a name="functions"></a>Primary Functions</h2></div></div> <div class="toc"> <p><b>Table of Contents</b></p> <dl> <dt> <a href="#preparing">Preparing to Parse</a> </dt> <dt> <a href="#parsethestylesheet">Parse the Stylesheet</a> </dt> <dt> <a href="#parseinputfile">Parse the Input File</a> </dt> <dt> <a href="#applyingstylesheet">Applying the Stylesheet</a> </dt> <dt> <a href="#saveresult">Saving the result</a> </dt> <dt> <a href="#parameters">Parameters</a> </dt> <dt> <a href="#cleanup">Cleanup</a> </dt> </dl> </div> <p>To transform an XML file, you must perform three functions: <div class="orderedlist"><ol type="1"> <li><p> <a name="id2708093"></a>parse the input file</p></li> <li><p> <a name="id2708101"></a>parse the stylesheet</p></li> <li><p> <a name="id2708110"></a>apply the stylesheet</p></li> </ol></div> </p> <div class="sect2"> <a name="preparing"></a><div class="titlepage"><div><h3 class="title"> <a name="preparing"></a>Preparing to Parse</h3></div></div> <p>Before you can begin parsing input files or stylesheets, there are several steps you need to take to set up entity handling. These steps are not unique to libxslt. Any libxml2 program that parses XML files would need to take similar steps. </p> <p>First, you need set up some libxml housekeeping. Pass the integer value <i><tt>1</tt></i> to the <tt>xmlSubstituteEntitiesDefault</tt> function, which tells the libxml2 parser to substitute entities as it parses your file. (Passing <i><tt>0</tt></i> causes libxml2 to not perform entity substitution.) </p> <p>Second, set <tt>xmlLoadExtDtdDefaultValue</tt> equal to <i><tt>1</tt></i>. This tells libxml to load external entity subsets. If you do not do this and your input file includes entities through external subsets, you will get errors.</p> </div> <div class="sect2"> <a name="parsethestylesheet"></a><div class="titlepage"><div><h3 class="title"> <a name="parsethestylesheet"></a>Parse the Stylesheet</h3></div></div> <p>Parsing the stylesheet takes a single function call, which takes a variable of type xmlChar: <pre class="programlisting"> <tt>cur</tt> = xsltParseStylesheetFile((const xmlChar *)argv[i]); </pre> In this case, I cast the stylesheet file name, passed in as a command line argument, to <i>xmlChar</i>. The return value is of type <i>xsltStylesheetPtr</i>, a struct in memory that contains the stylesheet tree and other information about the stylesheet. It can be manipulated directly, but for this example you will not need to. </p> </div> <div class="sect2"> <a name="parseinputfile"></a><div class="titlepage"><div><h3 class="title"> <a name="parseinputfile"></a>Parse the Input File</h3></div></div> <p>Parsing the input file takes a single function call: <pre class="programlisting"> doc = xmlParseFile(argv[i]); </pre> It returns an <i>xmlDocPtr</i>, a struct in memory that contains the document tree. It can be manipulated directly, but for this example you will not need to. </p> </div> <div class="sect2"> <a name="applyingstylesheet"></a><div class="titlepage"><div><h3 class="title"> <a name="applyingstylesheet"></a>Applying the Stylesheet</h3></div></div> <p>Now that you have trees representing the document and the stylesheet in memory, apply the stylesheet to the document. The function that does this is <tt>xsltApplyStylesheet</tt>: <pre class="programlisting"> res = xsltApplyStylesheet(cur, doc, params); </pre> The function takes an xsltStylesheetPtr and an xmlDocPtr, the values returned by the previous two functions. The third variable, <tt>params</tt> can be used to pass XSLT parameters to the stylesheet. It is a NULL-terminated array of name/value pairs of const char's. </p> </div> <div class="sect2"> <a name="saveresult"></a><div class="titlepage"><div><h3 class="title"> <a name="saveresult"></a>Saving the result</h3></div></div> <p>libxslt includes a family of functions to use in saving the resulting output. For this example, <tt>xsltSaveResultToFile</tt> is used, and the results are saved to stdout: <pre class="programlisting"> xsltSaveResultToFile(stdout, res, cur); </pre> <div class="note" style="margin-left: 0.5in; margin-right: 0.5in;"> <h3 class="title"> <a name="id2708587"></a>Note</h3> <p>libxml also contains output functions, such as <tt>xmlSaveFile</tt>, which can be used here. However, output-related information contained in the stylesheet, such as a declaration of the encoding to be used, will be lost if one of the libxslt save functions is not used.</p> </div> </p> </div> <div class="sect2"> <a name="parameters"></a><div class="titlepage"><div><h3 class="title"> <a name="parameters"></a>Parameters</h3></div></div> <p> In XSLT, parameters may be used as a way to pass additional information to a stylesheet. libxslt accepts XSLT parameters as one of the values passed to <tt>xsltApplyStylesheet</tt>. </p> <p> In the tutorial example and in xsltproc, on which the tutorial example is based, parameters to be passed take the form of key-value pairs. The program collects them from command line arguments, inserting them in the array <tt>params</tt>, then passes them to the function. The final element in the array is set to <i><tt>NULL</tt></i>. <div class="note" style="margin-left: 0.5in; margin-right: 0.5in;"> <h3 class="title"> <a name="id2708668"></a>Note</h3> <p> If a parameter being passed is a string rather than an XSLT node, it must be escaped. For the tutorial program, that would be done as follows: <b>tutorial]$ ./libxslt_tutorial --param rootid "'asect1'" stylesheet.xsl filename.xml</b> </p> </div> </p> </div> <div class="sect2"> <a name="cleanup"></a><div class="titlepage"><div><h3 class="title"> <a name="cleanup"></a>Cleanup</h3></div></div> <p>After you are finished, libxslt and libxml provide functions for deallocating memory. </p> <p> <pre class="programlisting"> xsltFreeStylesheet(cur);<a name="cleanupstylesheet"></a><img src="images/callouts/1.png" alt="1" border="0"> xmlFreeDoc(res);<a name="cleanupresults"></a><img src="images/callouts/2.png" alt="2" border="0"> xmlFreeDoc(doc);<a name="cleanupdoc"></a><img src="images/callouts/3.png" alt="3" border="0"> xsltCleanupGlobals();<a name="cleanupglobals"></a><img src="images/callouts/4.png" alt="4" border="0"> xmlCleanupParser();<a name="cleanupparser"></a><img src="images/callouts/5.png" alt="5" border="0"> </pre> <div class="calloutlist"> <a name="id2708994"></a><table border="0" summary="Callout list"> <tr> <td width="5%" valign="top" align="left"> <a name="id2709000"></a><a href="#cleanupstylesheet"><img src="images/callouts/1.png" alt="1" border="0"></a> </td> <td valign="top" align="left"><p>Free the memory used by your stylesheet.</p></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="5%" valign="top" align="left"> <a name="id2709117"></a><a href="#cleanupresults"><img src="images/callouts/2.png" alt="2" border="0"></a> </td> <td valign="top" align="left"><p>Free the memory used by the results document.</p></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="5%" valign="top" align="left"> <a name="id2709136"></a><a href="#cleanupdoc"><img src="images/callouts/3.png" alt="3" border="0"></a> </td> <td valign="top" align="left"><p>Free the memory used by your original document.</p></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="5%" valign="top" align="left"> <a name="id2709155"></a><a href="#cleanupglobals"><img src="images/callouts/4.png" alt="4" border="0"></a> </td> <td valign="top" align="left"><p>Free memory used by libxslt global variables</p></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="5%" valign="top" align="left"> <a name="id2709176"></a><a href="#cleanupparser"><img src="images/callouts/5.png" alt="5" border="0"></a> </td> <td valign="top" align="left"><p>Free memory used by the XML parser</p></td> </tr> </table> </div> </p> </div> </div> <div class="appendix"> <h2 class="title" style="clear: both"> <a name="thecode"></a>A.
