Deprecated XSLT package

[Mandar Gandhe]

Hi..
I was using wblogic.apache.xalan.xslt package for the XLS transformation stuff. But the current documentation says that the classes are deprecated now. Can anyone please tell me where to find the new classes / packages ?
Thanks in advance

The most dependable one for me is
javadoc: http://xml.apache.org/xalan-j/apidocs/
Download the xalan-j_2_4_1-bin.zip from http://xml.apache.org/xalan-j/.
Since you'd better code against JAXP interfaces, but you still want to get the inside of xalan. Use xalan javadoc will let you have both.

Hi Roseanne
Thanks for your reply. I have started using Xalan 2.4.1 (for Java) and it is working fine for me. Just a small question, I was using setStyleSheetParam(String key, String expression) method from weblogic.apache.xalan.xslt.XSLTProcessor class which I need to replace with something from javax.xml.transform.Transformer class from the latest xalan.jar. Can you please tell me which of the following methods is suitable ? (Actually documentation for these methods is a bit confusing for me)
1. setOutputProperty(String name, String value);
2. setParameter(String name, Object value);
Thanks in advance
Mandar

1) for <xsl:output> tag
2) for <xsl:param> tag
However, I don't know anything about your weblogic specific libraries, and have no plan to know them either.

"for" should be changed to "It is equivalent to use" to be more accurate.
