public interface TransformerHandler

extends ContentHandler, LexicalHandler, DTDHandler

A TransformerHandler listens for SAX ContentHandler parse events and transforms them to a Result.

Method Summary

java.lang.String	getSystemId() Get the base ID (URI or system ID) from where relative URLs will be resolved.
Transformer	getTransformer() Get the Transformer associated with this handler, which is needed in order to set parameters and output properties.
void	setResult(Result result) Enables the user of the TransformerHandler to set the to set the Result for the transformation.
void	setSystemId(java.lang.String systemID) Set the base ID (URI or system ID) from where relative URLs will be resolved.
