Ok, after reading this, and your previous response, I 
can now articulate my problem better. 

It seems the XSP allows you to create reusable sections
of code (logicsheets) and to embed Java, the result
is auto-generated code which is an instance of Generator.

I was hoping that XSP could also be used to define a code-generated
instance of Transformer.  The way things are now, it seems that
only Generators can be coded up using XSP -- not Transformers.
In other words, I must write my Transformer entirely in Java.

Thanks for your help,

        -Chris
