</ul>
<anchor name="factoryfeature"/>
<s2 title="Standard TransformerFactory features">
<p><resource-ref idref="jaxp13-longname-withacronym"/> defines objects and methods for processing input and producing
output in a variety of formats, including character streams, SAX event streams, and DOM Documents.</p>
<p>&jaxp13-short; defines the following features:</p>

transformation as input for another transformation. The SAXTransformerFactory newXMLFilter(Source) and newXMLFilter(Templates) methods
are supported.</p>

import javax.xml.sax.SAXTransformerFactory;
..
TransformerFactory tFact = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
if (tFact.getFeature(SAXTransformerFactory.FEATURE_XMLFILTER))){

..
}</source>
<p>For an example that uses this feature to chain together a series of transformations, see
<link idref="samples" anchor="usexmlfilters">UseXMLFilters</link>.</p>
</s3>
<anchor name="secureprocessing"/>
<s3 title="Secure processing feature">
<p><em>URI: </em>"http://javax.xml.XMLConstants/feature/secure-processing"</p>
<p>&xslt4j; supports the secure processing feature in both the interpretive and &xslt4jc-short;
processors. When this feature is set to true, the implementation will apply a set of limits on the
XSLT/XML processing behavior to make the XSLT processor behave in a secure fashion. The limits are
implementation dependent. &xslt4j; applies the following limits when the secure processing feature
is set to true:<br/><br/>
<li>extension functions and extension elements are disabled.</li>
<li>parsers created by the XSLT processors will also have the secure processing feature set to true.</li>
</p>
</s3>
</s2><anchor name="factoryattribute"/>
<s2 title="&xslt4j; TransformerFactory attributes">
<p>A given implementation may provide TransformerFactory attributes for which you can set and get values. &xslt4j; uses the
<link idref="dtm"> DTM (Document Table Model)</link> to support three attributes which can be set to true or false:</p>
<ul>
<li><link anchor="optimize">optimize attribute</link></li>
<li><link anchor="incremental">incremental attribute</link></li>
<li><link anchor="source_location">source_location attribute</link></li>
</ul>
<p>To get an attribute setting, use the TransformerFactory.getAttribute(String) method, which returns an Object. For these three &xslt4j;
attributes, you can cast the return value to a boolean. To set an attribute, use the TransformerFactory.setAttribute(String, Object) method.
For the String argument, provide the static String variable or literal URI String as detailed below. For the Object argument, use
Boolean.TRUE or Boolean.FALSE (or the Strings "true" or "false").</p><anchor name="optimize"/>
<s3 title="optimize attribute">
<p><em>URI:</em> "http://xml.apache.org/xalan/features/optimize"</p>
<p>Optimize stylesheet processing. By default, this attribute is set to true. You may need to set it to false for tooling applications.
For more information, see <link idref="dtm" anchor="optimize">DTM optimize</link>.</p>
<p>To turn optimization off, you can use the TransformerFactoryImpl.FEATURE_OPTIMIZE static variable (equivalent to the URI String above)
as follows:</p>
<source>import javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory;
import org.apache.xalan.processor.TransformerFactoryImpl;
..
TransformerFactory tFact = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
if (tFact instanceof TransformerFactoryImpl) {
tFact.setAttribute(TransformerFactoryImpl.FEATURE_OPTIMIZE,
Boolean.FALSE);
}</source>
</s3><anchor name="incremental"/>
<s3 title="incremental attribute">
<p><em>URI:</em> "http://xml.apache.org/xalan/features/incremental"</p>
<p>Produce output incrementally, rather than waiting to finish parsing the input before generating any output. By default this attribute is set
to false. You can turn this attribute on to transform large documents where the stylesheet structure is optimized to execute individual templates
without having to parse the entire document. For more information, see <link idref="dtm" anchor="incremental">DTM incremental</link>.</p>
<p>To turn incremental transformations on, you can use the TransformerFactoryImpl.FEATURE_INCREMENTAL static variable (equivalent to the URI String above) as follows:</p>
<source>import javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory;
import org.apache.xalan.processor.TransformerFactoryImpl;
..
TransformerFactory tFact = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
if (tFact instanceof TransformerFactoryImpl) {
tFact.setAttribute(TransformerFactoryImpl.FEATURE_INCREMENTAL,
Boolean.FALSE);
}</source>
<note>The incremental feature is not currently supported by XSLTC.</note>
</s3>
<anchor name="source_location"/>
<s3 title="source_location attribute">
<p><em>URI:</em> "http://xml.apache.org/xalan/properties/source-location"</p>
<p>Provide a <jump href="apidocs/javax/xml/transform/SourceLocator.html">SourceLocator</jump> that can be used during a transformation
to obtain the location of individual nodes in a source document (system ID, line number, and column number).</p>
<p>By default, this attribute is set to false. Setting this attribute to true involves a substantial increase in storage cost per source
document node. If you want to use the <link idref="extensionslib" anchor="nodeinfo">NodeInfo</link> extension functions (or some other mechanism)
to provide this information during a transform, you must set the attribute to true before generating the Transformer and processing the
stylesheet.</p>
<p>The <link idref="commandline">command-line utility</link> -L flag sets this attribute to true. To set the source_location attribute
programmatically, you can use the TransformerFactoryImpl.FEATURE_SOURCE_LOCATION static variable (equivalent to the URI String above)
as follows:</p>
<source>import javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory;
import org.apache.xalan.transformer.TransformerImpl;
import org.apache.xalan.transformer.XalanProperties;
..
TransformerFactory tFact = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
if (tFact instanceof TransformerFactoryImpl) {
tFact.setAttribute(TransformerFactoryImpl.FEATURE_SOURCE_LOCATION,
Boolean.TRUE);
}</source>
