          net.sf.saxon.Controller

    public class Controller

extends Transformer

The Controller is Saxon's implementation of the JAXP Transformer class, and represents an executing instance of a transformation or query. Multiple concurrent executions of the same transformation or query will use different Controller instances. This class is therefore not thread-safe.

The Controller is serially reusable, as required by JAXP: when one transformation or query is finished, it can be used to run another. However, there is no advantage in doing this rather than allocating a new Controller each time.

The Controller can also be used when running Java applications that use neither XSLT nor XQuery. A dummy Controller is created when running free-standing XPath expressions.

The Controller holds those parts of the dynamic context that do not vary during the course of a transformation or query, or that do not change once their value has been computed. This also includes those parts of the static context that are required at run-time.

Wherever possible XSLT applications should use the JAXP Transformer class directly, rather than relying on Saxon-specific methods in the Controller. However, some features are currently available only through this class. This applies especially to new features specific to XSLT 2.0, since the JAXP interface still supports only XSLT 1.0. Such methods may be superseded in the future by JAXP methods.

Many methods on the Controller are designed for internal use and should not be considered stable. From release 8.4 onwards, those methods that are considered sufficiently stable to constitute path of the Saxon public API are labelled with the JavaDoc tag "since": the value indicates the release at which the method was added to the public API.

Since:
  8.4

Constructor Detail

### Controller

    public Controller(Configuration config)

  Create a Controller and initialise variables. Note: XSLT applications should create the Controller by using the JAXP newTransformer() method, or in S9API by using XsltExecutable.load()

  Parameters:
    `config` - The Configuration used by this Controller

### Controller

    public Controller(Configuration config,
                      Executable executable)

  Create a Controller and initialise variables.

  Parameters:
    `config` - The Configuration used by this Controller
    `executable` - The executable used by this Controller

Method Detail

### reset

    public void reset()

  Reset this `Transformer` to its original configuration.

  `Transformer` is reset to the same state as when it was created with `TransformerFactory.newTransformer()`, `TransformerFactory.newTransformer(javax.xml.transform.Source source)` or `Templates.newTransformer()`. `reset()` is designed to allow the reuse of existing `Transformer`s thus saving resources associated with the creation of new `Transformer`s.

  The above is from the JAXP specification. With Saxon, it's unlikely that reusing a Transformer will give any performance benefits over creating a new one. The one case where it might be beneficial is to reuse the document pool (the set of documents that have been loaded using the doc() or document() functions). Therefore, this method does not clear the document pool. If you want to clear the document pool, call the method `clearDocumentPool()` as well.

  The reset `Transformer` is not guaranteed to have the same `URIResolver` or `ErrorListener` `Object`s, e.g. `Object.equals(Object obj)`. It is guaranteed to have a functionally equal `URIResolver` and `ErrorListener`.

  Overrides:
    `reset` in class `Transformer`
  Since:
    1.5

### getConfiguration

    public Configuration getConfiguration()

  Get the Configuration associated with this Controller. The Configuration holds settings that potentially apply globally to many different queries and transformations.

  Returns:
    the Configuration object
  Since:
    8.4

### setInitialMode

    public void setInitialMode(String expandedModeName)

  Set the initial mode for the transformation.

  XSLT 2.0 allows a transformation to be started in a mode other than the default mode. The transformation then starts by looking for the template rule in this mode that best matches the initial context node.

  This method may eventually be superseded by a standard JAXP method.

  Parameters:
    `expandedModeName` - the name of the initial mode. The mode is supplied as an expanded QName, that is "localname" if there is no namespace, or "{uri}localname" otherwise. If the value is null or zero-length, the initial mode is reset to the unnamed default mode.
  Since:
    8.4

### getInitialMode

    public String getInitialMode()

  Get the initial mode for the transformation

  Returns:
    the initial mode, as a name in Clark format

### setOutputProperties

    public void setOutputProperties(Properties properties)

  Set the output properties for the transformation. These properties will override properties set in the templates with xsl:output.

  As well as the properties defined in the JAXP OutputKeys class, Saxon defines an additional set of properties in `SaxonOutputKeys`. These fall into two categories: Constants representing serialization properties defined in XSLT 2.0 (which are not yet supported by JAXP), and constants supporting Saxon extensions to the set of serialization properties.

  Specified by:
    `setOutputProperties` in class `Transformer`
  Parameters:
    `properties` - the output properties to be used for the transformation. If the value is null, the properties are reset to be the properties of the Templates object (that is, for XSLT 2.0, the properties set in the unnamed xsl:output object).
  Throws:
    `IllegalArgumentException` - if any of the properties are invalid (other than properties in a user-defined namespace)
  Since:
    8.4
  See Also:
    `SaxonOutputKeys`

### getOutputProperties

    public Properties getOutputProperties()

  Get the output properties for the transformation.

  As well as the properties defined in the JAXP OutputKeys class, Saxon defines an additional set of properties in `SaxonOutputKeys`. These fall into two categories: Constants representing serialization properties defined in XSLT 2.0 (which are not yet supported by JAXP), and constants supporting Saxon extensions to the set of serialization properties.

  Specified by:
    `getOutputProperties` in class `Transformer`
  Returns:
    the output properties being used for the transformation, including properties defined in the stylesheet for the unnamed output format
  Since:
    8.4
  See Also:
    `SaxonOutputKeys`

### setOutputProperty

    public void setOutputProperty(String name,
                                  String value)

  Set an output property for the transformation.

  As well as the properties defined in the JAXP OutputKeys class, Saxon defines an additional set of properties in `SaxonOutputKeys`. These fall into two categories: Constants representing serialization properties defined in XSLT 2.0 (which are not yet supported by JAXP), and constants supporting Saxon extensions to the set of serialization properties.

  As an extension to the JAXP specification, supplying the value "" (a zero-length string) for any parameter has the effect of cancelling any value defined in the stylesheet or query; for example setting doctype-system or doctype-public to "" causes the serializer to be run with these properties taken as absent. This rule does not apply to parameters where "" is a meaningful value, for example cdata-section-elements.

  Specified by:
    `setOutputProperty` in class `Transformer`
  Parameters:
    `name` - the name of the property
    `value` - the value of the property
  Throws:
    `IllegalArgumentException` - if the property is invalid (except for properties in a user-defined namespace)
  Since:
    8.4
  See Also:
    `SaxonOutputKeys`

### getOutputProperty

    public String getOutputProperty(String name)

  Get the value of an output property.

  As well as the properties defined in the JAXP OutputKeys class, Saxon defines an additional set of properties in `SaxonOutputKeys`. These fall into two categories: Constants representing serialization properties defined in XSLT 2.0 (which are not yet supported by JAXP), and constants supporting Saxon extensions to the set of serialization properties.

  Specified by:
    `getOutputProperty` in class `Transformer`
  Parameters:
    `name` - the name of the requested property
  Returns:
    the value of the requested property
  Since:
    8.4
  See Also:
    `SaxonOutputKeys`

### setBaseOutputURI

    public void setBaseOutputURI(String uri)

  Set the base output URI.

  This defaults to the system ID of the Result object for the principal output of the transformation if this is known; if it is not known, it defaults to the current directory.

  The base output URI is used for resolving relative URIs in the `href` attribute of the `xsl:result-document` instruction.

  Parameters:
    `uri` - the base output URI
  Since:
    8.4

### getBaseOutputURI

    public String getBaseOutputURI()

  Get the base output URI.

  This returns the value set using the `setBaseOutputURI(java.lang.String)` method. If no value has been set explicitly, then the method returns null if called before the transformation, or the computed default base output URI if called after the transformation.

  The base output URI is used for resolving relative URIs in the `href` attribute of the `xsl:result-document` instruction.

  Returns:
    the base output URI
  Since:
    8.4

### getCookedBaseOutputURI

    public String getCookedBaseOutputURI()

  Get the base output URI after processing. The processing consists of (a) defaulting to the current user directory if no base URI is available and if the stylesheet is trusted, and (b) applying IRI-to-URI escaping

  Returns:
    the base output URI after processing.

### getPrincipalResult

    public Result getPrincipalResult()

  Get the principal result destination.

  This method is intended for internal use only. It is typically called by Saxon during the course of a transformation, to discover the result that was supplied in the transform() call.

  Returns:
    the Result object supplied as the principal result destination.

### checkUniqueOutputDestination

    public boolean checkUniqueOutputDestination(DocumentURI uri)

  Check that an output destination has not been used before, optionally adding this URI to the set of URIs that have been used.

  Parameters:
    `uri` - the URI to be used as the output destination
  Returns:
    true if the URI is available for use; false if it has already been used.

    This method is intended for internal use only.

### addUnavailableOutputDestination

    public void addUnavailableOutputDestination(DocumentURI uri)

  Add a URI to the set of output destinations that cannot be written to, either because they have already been written to, or because they have been read

  Parameters:
    `uri` - A URI that is not available as an output destination

### removeUnavailableOutputDestination

    public void removeUnavailableOutputDestination(DocumentURI uri)

  Remove a URI from the set of output destinations that cannot be written to or read from. Used to support saxon:discard-document()

  Parameters:
    `uri` - A URI that is being made available as an output destination

### isUnusedOutputDestination

    public boolean isUnusedOutputDestination(DocumentURI uri)

  Determine whether an output URI is available for use. This method is intended for use by applications, via an extension function.

  Parameters:
    `uri` - A uri that the application is proposing to use in the href attribute of xsl:result-document: if this function returns false, then the xsl:result-document call will fail saying the URI has already been used.
  Returns:
    true if the URI is available for use. Note that this function is not "stable": it may return different results for the same URI at different points in the transformation.

### checkImplicitResultTree

    public void checkImplicitResultTree()
                                 throws XPathException

  Check whether an XSLT implicit result tree can be written. This is allowed only if no xsl:result-document has been written for the principal output URI

  Throws:
    `XPathException`

### setThereHasBeenAnExplicitResultDocument

    public void setThereHasBeenAnExplicitResultDocument()

  Set that an explicit result tree has been written using xsl:result-document

### hasThereBeenAnExplicitResultDocument

    public boolean hasThereBeenAnExplicitResultDocument()

  Test whether an explicit result tree has been written using xsl:result-document

  Returns:
    true if the transformation has evaluated an xsl:result-document instruction

### allocateSequenceOutputter

    public SequenceOutputter allocateSequenceOutputter(int size)

  Allocate a SequenceOutputter for a new output destination. Reuse the existing one if it is available for reuse (this is designed to ensure that the TinyTree structure is also reused, creating a forest of trees all sharing the same data structure)

  Parameters:
    `size` - the estimated size of the output sequence
  Returns:
    SequenceOutputter the allocated SequenceOutputter

### reuseSequenceOutputter

    public void reuseSequenceOutputter(SequenceOutputter out)

  Accept a SequenceOutputter that is now available for reuse

  Parameters:
    `out` - the SequenceOutputter that is available for reuse

### setInitialTemplate

    public void setInitialTemplate(String expandedName)
                            throws XPathException

  Set the initial named template to be used as the entry point.

  XSLT 2.0 allows a transformation to start by executing a named template, rather than by matching an initial context node in a source document. This method may eventually be superseded by a standard JAXP method once JAXP supports XSLT 2.0.

  Note that any parameters supplied using `setParameter(java.lang.String, java.lang.Object)` are used as the values of global stylesheet parameters. There is no way to supply values for local parameters of the initial template.

  Parameters:
    `expandedName` - The expanded name of the template in {uri}local format, or null or a zero-length string to indicate that there should be no initial template.
  Throws:
    `XPathException` - if there is no named template with this name
  Since:
    8.4

### getInitialTemplate

    public String getInitialTemplate()

  Get the initial template

  Returns:
    the name of the initial template, as an expanded name in Clark format if set, or null otherwise
  Since:
    8.7

### makePipelineConfiguration

    public PipelineConfiguration makePipelineConfiguration()

  Make a PipelineConfiguration based on the properties of this Controller.

  This interface is intended primarily for internal use, although it may be necessary for applications to call it directly if they construct pull or push pipelines

  Returns:
    a newly constructed PipelineConfiguration holding a reference to this Controller as well as other configuration information.

### setMessageEmitter

    public void setMessageEmitter(Receiver receiver)

  Set the Receiver to be used for xsl:message output.

  Recent versions of the JAXP interface specify that by default the output of xsl:message is sent to the registered ErrorListener. Saxon does not implement this convention. Instead, the output is sent to a default message emitter, which is a slightly customised implementation of the standard Saxon Emitter interface.

  This interface can be used to change the way in which Saxon outputs xsl:message output.

  It is not necessary to use this interface in order to change the destination to which messages are written: that can be achieved by obtaining the standard message emitter and calling its `Emitter.setWriter(java.io.Writer)` method.

  Although any `Receiver` can be supplied as the destination for messages, applications may find it convenient to implement a subclass of `SequenceWriter`, in which only the abstract `write()` method is implemented. This will have the effect that the `write()` method is called to output each message as it is generated, with the `Item` that is passed to the `write()` method being the document node at the root of an XML document containing the contents of the message.

  This method is intended for use by advanced applications. The Receiver interface itself is subject to change in new Saxon releases.

  The supplied Receiver will have its open() method called once at the start of the transformation, and its close() method will be called once at the end of the transformation. Each individual call of an xsl:message instruction is wrapped by calls of startDocument() and endDocument(). If terminate="yes" is specified on the xsl:message call, the properties argument of the startDocument() call will be set to the value `ReceiverOptions.TERMINATE`.

  Parameters:
    `receiver` - The receiver to receive xsl:message output.
  Since:
    8.4; changed in 8.9 to supply a Receiver rather than an Emitter

### getMessageEmitter

    public Receiver getMessageEmitter()

  Get the Receiver used for xsl:message output. This returns the emitter previously supplied to the `setMessageEmitter(net.sf.saxon.event.Receiver)` method, or the default message emitter otherwise.

  Returns:
    the Receiver being used for xsl:message output
  Since:
    8.4; changed in 8.9 to return a Receiver rather than an Emitter

### setRecoveryPolicy

    public void setRecoveryPolicy(int policy)

  Set the policy for handling recoverable XSLT errors.

  Since 9.3 this call has no effect unless the error listener in use is a `StandardErrorListener` or a subclass thereof. Calling this method then results in a call to the StandardErrorListener to set the recovery policy, and the action that is taken on calls of the various methods error(), fatalError(), and warning() is then the responsibility of the ErrorListener itself.

  Since 9.2 the policy for handling the most common recoverable error, namely the ambiguous template match that arises when a node matches more than one match pattern, is a compile-time rather than run-time setting, and can be controlled using `CompilerInfo.setRecoveryPolicy(int)`

  Parameters:
    `policy` - the recovery policy to be used. The options are `Configuration.RECOVER_SILENTLY`, `Configuration.RECOVER_WITH_WARNINGS`, or `Configuration.DO_NOT_RECOVER`.
  Since:
    8.7.1

### getRecoveryPolicy

    public int getRecoveryPolicy()

  Get the policy for handling recoverable errors

  Returns:
    the current policy. If none has been set with this Controller, the value registered with the Configuration is returned.
  Since:
    8.7.1

### setErrorListener

    public void setErrorListener(ErrorListener listener)

  Set the error listener.

  Specified by:
    `setErrorListener` in class `Transformer`
  Parameters:
    `listener` - the ErrorListener to be used

### getErrorListener

    public ErrorListener getErrorListener()

  Get the error listener.

  Specified by:
    `getErrorListener` in class `Transformer`
  Returns:
    the ErrorListener in use

### recoverableError

    public void recoverableError(XPathException err)
                          throws XPathException

  Report a recoverable error. This is an XSLT concept: by default, such an error results in a warning message, and processing continues. In XQuery, however, there are no recoverable errors so a fatal error is reported.

  This method is intended for internal use only.

  Parameters:
    `err` - An exception holding information about the error
  Throws:
    `XPathException` - if the error listener decides not to recover from the error

### reportFatalError

    public void reportFatalError(XPathException err)

  Report a fatal error

  Parameters:
    `err` - the error to be reported

### getExecutable

    public Executable getExecutable()

  Get the Executable object.

  This method is intended for internal use only.

  Returns:
    the Executable (which represents the compiled stylesheet)

### getDocumentPool

    public DocumentPool getDocumentPool()

  Get the document pool. This is used only for source documents, not for stylesheet modules.

  This method is intended for internal use only.

  Returns:
    the source document pool

### clearDocumentPool

    public void clearDocumentPool()

  Clear the document pool. This is sometimes useful when re-using the same Transformer for a sequence of transformations, but it isn't done automatically, because when the transformations use common look-up documents, the caching is beneficial.

### setInitialContextItem

    public void setInitialContextItem(Item item)

  Set the initial context item, when running XQuery.

  When a transformation is invoked using the `transform(javax.xml.transform.Source, javax.xml.transform.Result)` method, the initial context node is set automatically. This method is useful in XQuery, to define an initial context node for evaluating global variables, and also in XSLT 2.0, when the transformation is started by invoking a named template.

  When an initial context item is set, it also becomes the context item used for evaluating global variables. The two context items can only be different when the `transform(javax.xml.transform.Source, javax.xml.transform.Result)` method is used to transform a document starting at a node other than the root.

  In XQuery, the two context items are always the same; in XSLT, the context node for evaluating global variables is the root of the tree containing the initial context item.

  Parameters:
    `item` - The initial context item.
  Since:
    8.7

### getBindery

    public Bindery getBindery()

  Get the current bindery.

  This method is intended for internal use only.

  Returns:
    the initial context item. Note that in XSLT this must be a node, but in XQuery it may also be an atomic value.
  Since:
    8.7

### getContextForGlobalVariables

    public Item getContextForGlobalVariables()

  Get the item used as the context for evaluating global variables. In XQuery this is the same as the initial context item; in XSLT it is the root of the tree containing the initial context node.

  Returns:
    the context item for evaluating global variables, or null if there is none
  Since:
    8.7

  Since:
    8.4

### setTreeModel

    public void setTreeModel(int model)

  Deprecated. since 9.2: use `setModel(net.sf.saxon.om.TreeModel)`

  Set the tree data model to use. This affects all source documents subsequently constructed using a Builder obtained from this Controller. This includes a document built from a StreamSource or SAXSource supplied as a parameter to the `transform(javax.xml.transform.Source, javax.xml.transform.Result)` method.

  Since:
    8.4 (Condensed tinytree added in 9.2)
  See Also:
    `Builder`

### getTreeModel

    public int getTreeModel()

  Deprecated. since 9.2: use `getModel()`

  Get the tree data model to use. This affects all source documents subsequently constructed using a Builder obtained from this Controller.

  Returns:
    model the tree model: `Builder.LINKED_TREE`, `Builder.TINY_TREE`, or `Builder.TINY_TREE_CONDENSED`
  Since:
    9.1 (Condensed tinytree added in 9.2)
  See Also:
    `Builder`

### setModel

    public void setModel(TreeModel model)

  Set the tree model to use. Default is the tiny tree

  Parameters:
    `model` - typically one of the constants `TreeModel.TINY_TREE`, `TreeModel.TINY_TREE_CONDENSED`, or `TreeModel.LINKED_TREE`. It is also possible to use a user-defined tree model.
  Since:
    9.2

### getModel

    public TreeModel getModel()

  Get the tree model that will be used.

  Returns:
    typically one of the constants `TreeModel.TINY_TREE`, `TreeModel.TINY_TREE_CONDENSED`, or `TreeModel.LINKED_TREE`. It is also possible to use a user-defined tree model.

  Returns:
    an instance of the Builder for the chosen tree model
  Since:
    8.4

### setStripSourceTrees

    public void setStripSourceTrees(boolean strip)

  Say whether the transformation should perform whitespace stripping as defined by the xsl:strip-space and xsl:preserve-space declarations in the stylesheet in the case where a source tree is supplied to the transformation as a tree (typically a DOMSource, or a Saxon NodeInfo). The default is true. It is legitimate to suppress whitespace stripping if the client knows that all unnecessary whitespace has already been removed from the tree before it is processed. Note that this option applies to all source documents for which whitespace-stripping is normally applied, that is, both the principal source documents, and documents read using the doc(), document(), and collection() functions. It does not apply to source documents that are supplied in the form of a SAXSource or StreamSource, for which whitespace is stripped during the process of tree construction.

  Generally, stripping whitespace speeds up the transformation if it is done while building the source tree, but slows it down if it is applied to a tree that has already been built. So if the same source tree is used as input to a number of transformations, it is better to strip the whitespace once at the time of tree construction, rather than doing it on-the-fly during each transformation.

  Parameters:
    `strip` - true if whitespace is to be stripped from supplied source trees as defined by xsl:strip-space; false to suppress whitespace stripping
  Since:
    9.3

### isStripSourceTree

    public boolean isStripSourceTree()

  Ask whether the transformation will perform whitespace stripping for supplied source trees as defined by the xsl:strip-space and xsl:preserve-space declarations in the stylesheet.

  Returns:
    true unless whitespace stripping has been suppressed using `setStripSourceTrees(boolean)`.
  Since:
    9.3

### makeStripper

    public Stripper makeStripper(Receiver b)

  Make a Stripper configured to implement the whitespace stripping rules. In the case of XSLT the whitespace stripping rules are normally defined by `xsl:strip-space` and `xsl:preserve-space` `Configuration.setStripsAllWhiteSpace(boolean)`.

  Parameters:
    `b` - the Receiver to which the events filtered by this stripper are to be sent (often a Builder). May be null if the stripper is not being used for filtering into a Builder or other Receiver.
  Returns:
    the required Stripper. A Stripper may be used in two ways. It acts as a filter applied to an event stream, that can be used to remove the events representing whitespace text nodes before they reach a Builder. Alternatively, it can be used to define a view of an existing tree in which the whitespace text nodes are dynamically skipped while navigating the XPath axes.
  Since:
    8.4 - Generalized in 8.5 to accept any Receiver as an argument

### registerDocument

    public void registerDocument(DocumentInfo doc,
                                 DocumentURI uri)
                          throws XPathException

  Add a document to the document pool, and check that it is suitable for use in this query or transformation. This check rejects the document if document has been validated (and thus carries type annotations) but the query or transformation is not schema-aware.

  This method is intended for internal use only.

  Parameters:
    `doc` - the root node of the document to be added. Must not be null.
    `uri` - the document-URI property of this document. If non-null, the document is registered in the document pool with this as its document URI.
  Throws:
    `XPathException`

### setRuleManager

  This method has no effect unless the stylesheet or query was compiled with tracing enabled.

  Parameters:
    `listener` - the TraceListener to be set
  Since:
    9.2

### getTraceListener

    public TraceListener getTraceListener()

  Get the TraceListener. By default, there is no TraceListener, and this method returns null. A TraceListener may be added using the method `addTraceListener(net.sf.saxon.lib.TraceListener)`. If more than one TraceListener has been added, this method will return a composite TraceListener. Because this form this takes is implementation-dependent, this method is not part of the stable Saxon public API.

  Returns:
    the TraceListener used for XSLT or XQuery instruction tracing

### isTracing

    public final boolean isTracing()

  Test whether instruction execution is being traced. This will be true if (a) at least one TraceListener has been registered using the `addTraceListener(net.sf.saxon.lib.TraceListener)` method, and (b) tracing has not been temporarily paused using the `pauseTracing(boolean)` method.

  Returns:
    true if tracing is active, false otherwise
  Since:
    8.4

### pauseTracing

    public final void pauseTracing(boolean pause)

  Pause or resume tracing. While tracing is paused, trace events are not sent to any of the registered TraceListeners.

  Parameters:
    `pause` - true if tracing is to pause; false if it is to resume
  Since:
    8.4

### addTraceListener

    public void addTraceListener(TraceListener trace)

  Adds the specified trace listener to receive trace events from this instance. Note that although TraceListeners can be added or removed dynamically, this has no effect unless the stylesheet or query has been compiled with tracing enabled. This is achieved by calling `Configuration.setTraceListener(net.sf.saxon.lib.TraceListener)` or by setting the attribute `FeatureKeys.TRACE_LISTENER` on the TransformerFactory. Conversely, if this property has been set in the Configuration or TransformerFactory, the TraceListener will automatically be added to every Controller that uses that Configuration.

  Parameters:
    `trace` - the trace listener. If null is supplied, the call has no effect.
  Since:
    8.4

### removeTraceListener

    public void removeTraceListener(TraceListener trace)

  Removes the specified trace listener so that the listener will no longer receive trace events.

  Parameters:
    `trace` - the trace listener.
  Since:
    8.4

### setTraceFunctionDestination

    public void setTraceFunctionDestination(PrintStream stream)

  Set the destination for output from the fn:trace() function. By default, the destination is System.err. If a TraceListener is in use, this is ignored, and the trace() output is sent to the TraceListener.

  Parameters:
    `stream` - the PrintStream to which trace output will be sent. If set to null, trace output is suppressed entirely. It is the caller's responsibility to close the stream after use.
  Since:
    9.1

### getTraceFunctionDestination

    public PrintStream getTraceFunctionDestination()

  Get the destination for output from the fn:trace() function.

  Returns:
    the PrintStream to which trace output will be sent. If no explicitly destination has been set, returns System.err. If the destination has been set to null to suppress trace output, returns null.
  Since:
    9.1

### setPreparedStylesheet

    public void setPreparedStylesheet(PreparedStylesheet sheet)

  Associate this Controller with a compiled stylesheet.

  This method is intended for internal use only.

  Parameters:
    `sheet` - the compiled stylesheet

### setExecutable

    public void setExecutable(Executable exec)

  Associate this Controller with an Executable. This method is used by the XQuery processor. The Executable object is overkill in this case - the only thing it currently holds are copies of the collation table.

  This method is intended for internal use only

  Parameters:
    `exec` - the Executable

### defineGlobalParameters

    public void defineGlobalParameters()
                                throws XPathException

  Register the global parameters of the transformation or query. This should be called after a sequence of calls on `setParameter(java.lang.String, java.lang.Object)`. It checks that all required parameters have been supplied, and places the values of the parameters in the Bindery to make them available for use during the query or transformation.

  This method is intended for internal use only

  Throws:
    `XPathException`

### allocateGlobalVariables

    public void allocateGlobalVariables(int numberOfVariables)

### getUserData

    public Object getUserData(Object key,
                              String name)

  Get user data associated with a key. To retrieve user data, two objects are required: an arbitrary object that may be regarded as the container of the data (originally, and typically still, a node in a tree), and a name. The name serves to distingush data objects associated with the same node by different client applications.

  This method is intended primarily for internal use, though it may also be used by advanced applications.

  Parameters:
    `key` - an object acting as a key for this user data value. This must be equal (in the sense of the equals() method) to the key supplied when the data value was registered using `setUserData(java.lang.Object, java.lang.String, java.lang.Object)`.
    `name` - the name of the required property
  Returns:
    the value of the required property

### setUserData

    public void setUserData(Object key,
                            String name,
                            Object data)

  Set user data associated with a key. To store user data, two objects are required: an arbitrary object that may be regarded as the container of the data (originally, and typically still, a node in a tree), and a name. The name serves to distingush data objects associated with the same node by different client applications.

  This method is intended primarily for internal use, though it may also be used by advanced applications.

  Parameters:
    `key` - an object acting as a key for this user data value. This can be any object, for example a node or a string. If data for the given object and name already exists, it is overwritten.
    `name` - the name of the required property
    `data` - the value of the required property. If null is supplied, any existing entry for the key is removed.

### transform

    public void transform(Source source,
                          Result result)
                   throws TransformerException

  Perform a transformation from a Source document to a Result document.

  Specified by:
    `transform` in class `Transformer`
  Parameters:
    `source` - The input for the source tree. May be null if and only if an initial template has been supplied.
    `result` - The destination for the result tree.
  Throws:
    `XPathException` - if the transformation fails. As a special case, the method throws a TerminationException (a subclass of XPathException) if the transformation was terminated using xsl:message terminate="yes".
    `TransformerException`

### prepareInputTree

    public NodeInfo prepareInputTree(Source source)

  Prepare an input tree for processing. This is used when either the initial input, or a Source returned by the document() function, is a NodeInfo or a DOMSource. The preparation consists of wrapping a DOM document inside a wrapper that implements the NodeInfo interface, and/or adding a space-stripping wrapper if the stylesheet strips whitespace nodes, and/or adding a type-stripping wrapper if the stylesheet strips input type annotations.

  This method is intended for internal use.

  Parameters:
    `source` - the input tree. Must be either a DOMSource or a NodeInfo
  Returns:
    the NodeInfo representing the input node, suitably wrapped.

### transformDocument

    public void transformDocument(NodeInfo startNode,
                                  Result result)
                           throws TransformerException

  Transform a source XML document supplied as a tree.

  This method is intended for internal use. External applications should use the `transform(javax.xml.transform.Source, javax.xml.transform.Result)` method, which is part of the JAXP interface. Note that `NodeInfo` implements the JAXP `Source` interface, so it may be supplied directly to the transform() method.

  Parameters:
    `startNode` - A Node that identifies the source document to be transformed and the node where the transformation should start. May be null if the transformation is to start using an initial template.
    `result` - The output destination
  Throws:
    `XPathException` - if any dynamic error occurs
    `TransformerException`

### transformStream

    public void transformStream(Source source,

                                Result result)
                         throws TransformerException

  Transform a source XML document supplied as a stream, in streaming mode.

  This method is intended for internal use. External applications should use the `transform(javax.xml.transform.Source, javax.xml.transform.Result)` method, which is part of the JAXP interface. Note that `NodeInfo` implements the JAXP `Source` interface, so it may be supplied directly to the transform() method.

  Parameters:
    `source` - the principal input document, supplied as a SAXSource or StreamSource
    `mode` - the initial mode, which must be a streaming mode
    `result` - The output destination
  Throws:
    `XPathException` - if any dynamic error occurs

                                 throws TransformerException

  Prepare another stylesheet to handle the output of this one.

  This method is intended for internal use, to support the `saxon:next-in-chain` extension.

  Parameters:
    `href` - URI of the next stylesheet to be applied
    `baseURI` - base URI for resolving href if it's a relative URI
    `result` - the output destination of the current stylesheet
  Returns:
    a replacement destination for the current stylesheet
  Throws:
    `XPathException` - if any dynamic error occurs
    `TransformerException`

### setParameter

    public void setParameter(String expandedName,
                             Object value)

  Set a parameter for the transformation.

  The following table shows some of the classes that are supported by this method. (Others may also be supported, but continued support is not guaranteed.) Each entry in the table shows first the Java class of the supplied object, and then the type of the resulting XPath value.

  Java Class | XPath 2.0 type

    public void setClassLoader(ClassLoader loader)

  Set a ClassLoader to be used when loading external classes. Examples of classes that are loaded include SAX parsers, localization modules for formatting numbers and dates, extension functions, external object models. In an environment such as Eclipse that uses its own ClassLoader, this ClassLoader should be nominated to ensure that any class loaded by Saxon is identical to a class of the same name loaded by the external environment.

  This method is for application use, but is experimental and subject to change.

  Parameters:
    `loader` - the ClassLoader to be used.
