    public class TransformerFactoryImpl

extends SAXTransformerFactory

A TransformerFactoryImpl instance can be used to create Transformer and Template objects.

The system property that determines which Factory implementation to create is named "javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory". This property names a concrete subclass of the TransformerFactory abstract class. If the property is not defined, a platform default is be used.

This implementation class implements the abstract methods on both the javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory and javax.xml.transform.sax.SAXTransformerFactory classes.

### setFeature

    public void setFeature(String name,
                           boolean value)
                    throws TransformerConfigurationException

  Set a feature for this `TransformerFactory` and `Transformer`s or `Template`s created by this factory.

  Feature names are fully qualified `URI`s. Implementations may define their own features. An `TransformerConfigurationException` is thrown if this `TransformerFactory` or the `Transformer`s or `Template`s it creates cannot support the feature. It is possible for an `TransformerFactory` to expose a feature value but be unable to change its state.

  All implementations are required to support the FEATURE_SECURE_PROCESSING feature. When the feature is:

  - `true`: the implementation will limit XML processing to conform to implementation limits and behave in a secure fashion as defined by the implementation. Examples include resolving user defined style sheets and functions. If XML processing is limited for security reasons, it will be reported via a call to the registered `ErrorListener.fatalError(javax.xml.transform.TransformerException exception)`. See `setErrorListener(javax.xml.transform.ErrorListener listener)`. In the Saxon implementation, this option causes calls on extension functions and extensions instructions to be disabled, and also disables the use of xsl:result-document to write to secondary output destinations.
  - `false`: the implementation will processing XML according to the XML specifications without regard to possible implementation limits.

  Specified by:
    `setFeature` in class `TransformerFactory`
  Parameters:
    `name` - Feature name.
    `value` - Is feature state `true` or `false`.
  Throws:
    `TransformerConfigurationException` - if this `TransformerFactory` or the `Transformer`s or `Template`s it creates cannot support this feature.
    `NullPointerException` - If the `name` parameter is null.
