                           throws java.lang.IllegalArgumentException

  This method is used to set or override the value of the effective xsl:output attribute values specified in the stylesheet.

  The recognized standard output properties are:

  - cdata-section-elements
  - doctype-system
  - doctype-public
  - indent
  - media-type
  - method
  - omit-xml-declaration
  - standalone
  - version

  For example:

         tran.setOutputProperty("standalone", "yes");

  In the case of the cdata-section-elements property, the value should be a whitespace separated list of element names. The element name is the local name of the element, if it is in no namespace, or, the URI in braces followed immediately by the local name if the element is in that namespace. For example:

       tran.setOutputProperty(
         "cdata-section-elements",
         "elem1 {http://example.uri}elem2 elem3");

  The recognized Xalan extension elements are:

  - content-handler
  - entities
  - indent-amount
  - line-separator
  - omit-meta-tag
  - use-url-escaping

  These must be in the extension namespace of "http://xml.apache.org/xalan". This is accomplished by putting the namespace URI in braces before the property name, for example:

         tran.setOutputProperty(
           "{http://xml.apache.org/xalan}line-separator" ,
           "\n");

  Parameters:
    `name` - The property name.
    `value` - The requested value for the property.
  Throws:
    java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the property name is not legal.
  Overrides:
    setOutputProperty in class Transformer

### setOutputProperties

    public void setOutputProperties(java.util.Properties oformat)
                             throws java.lang.IllegalArgumentException

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

  If argument to this function is null, any properties previously set will be removed.

  Parameters:
    `oformat` - A set of output properties that will be used to override any of the same properties in effect for the transformation.
  Throws:
    java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if any of the argument keys are not recognized and are not namespace qualified.
  Overrides:
    setOutputProperties in class Transformer
  See Also:
    `OutputKeys`, `Properties`

### getOutputProperties

    public java.util.Properties getOutputProperties()

  Get a copy of the output properties for the transformation. These properties will override properties set in the templates with xsl:output.

  Note that mutation of the Properties object returned will not effect the properties that the transformation contains.

  Returns:
    A copy of the set of output properties in effect for the next transformation. NEEDSDOC ($objectName$) @return
  Overrides:
    getOutputProperties in class Transformer

                              SAXNotSupportedException

  Look up the value of a feature.

  The feature name is any fully-qualified URI. It is possible for an TransformerFactory to recognize a feature name but to be unable to return its value; this is especially true in the case of an adapter for a SAX1 Parser, which has no way of knowing whether the underlying parser is validating, for example.

  ### Open issues:

  #### Should getFeature be changed to hasFeature?

    Keith Visco writes: Should getFeature be changed to hasFeature? It returns a boolean which indicated whether the "state" of feature is "true or false". I assume this means whether or not a feature is supported? I know SAX is using "getFeature", but to me "hasFeature" is cleaner.
  Parameters:
    `name` - The feature name, which is a fully-qualified URI.
  Returns:
    The current state of the feature (true or false).
  Throws:
    SAXNotRecognizedException - When the TransformerFactory does not recognize the feature name.
    SAXNotSupportedException - When the TransformerFactory recognizes the feature name but cannot determine its value at this time.

    SAXNotSupportedException -
