The Apache Xalan team is pleased to announce the release of Xalan-C version 1.11. -- November 2, 2012
Xalan-C is a library for XML document transformation using XSLT stylesheets. It is written using the C++ programming language. The release also includes a command-line program for document transformation, and several test programs of sample code. Online documentation is available on the project website: http://xalan.apache.org/xalan-c The significant new feature is the support of more top-level parameter types for stylesheet processors. The library now supports top-level parameters of type string, nodeset, and number. Nodeset parameters can reference any parsed XML document or fragment. This allows multiple XML documents to be merged under the control of a single transformation process without having to reparse the source for each reference. Number parameters can handle values of type double. String parameters can handle unicode text strings. This was available in the previous releases. Xalan-C 1.11 is has been built and tested on the following platforms. Microsoft Windows VS 2003 Microsoft Windows VS 2005 Microsoft Windows VS 2008 Microsoft Windows VS 2010 Linux with GCC 4.4.5 FreeBSD-8 with GCC 4.2 OpenBSD with GCC Solaris-10 with SunStudio-12.2 AIX Dependencies: Apache Xerces-C 3.1.1 for XML parsing GNU Make (except for Windows) GNU Tar (for Solaris) Documentation packages are available and packaged as a stand-alone website directory. Binary packages are available for the Microsoft Windows platforms. The library also contains a Xalan.exe program for command-line XSLT stylesheet transformations.
