XML Transformation with XSLT
This type of transformation specifies the transformation parameters and location of
an
XSLT stylesheet that is applied to the edited XML document. This scenario is useful
when you
develop an XML document and the XSLT document is in its final form.
To create an XML transformation with XSLT scenario, use one of the following methods:
- Use the
Configure Transformation Scenario(s) (Ctrl + Shift
+ C (Command + Shift + C on OS X)) action from the
toolbar or the menu. Then click the New button and select
XML transformation with XSLT.
- Use the
Apply Transformation Scenario(s) (Ctrl + Shift
+ T (Command + Shift + T on OS X)) action from the
toolbar or the menu. Then click the New button and select
XML transformation with XSLT.
Note
If a scenario is already associated with the edited document, selectingApply Transformation
Scenario(s) runs the associated scenario automatically. You can check to see
if transformation scenarios are associated with the edited document by hovering your
cursor
over the Apply Transformation
Scenario button.
- Go to and select Transformation Scenarios to display this view.
Click the New button and select XML transformation with
XSLT.
All three methods open the New Scenario dialog box.
The upper part of the dialog box allows you to specify the Name of the transformation scenario and the following Storage options:
- Project Options - The scenario is stored in the project file and can be shared with other users. For example, if your project is saved on a source versioning/sharing system (CVS, SVN, Source Safe, etc.) or a shared folder, your team can use the scenarios that you store in the project file.
- Global Options - The scenario is saved in the global options that are stored in the user home directory and is not accessible to other users.
The lower part of the dialog box contains several tabs that allow you to configure the options that control the transformation.
