Compile a document representing an XSLT stylesheet into an internal representation

The internal representation is an abstract syntax tree for the XSLT rules. XSLT imports and includes are evaluated and the rules are normalized and prepared for easy application.

A convinient function for combining reading a stylesheet and compilation.

Reading an XSLT stylesheet is always done without validation but with namespace propagation. Comments are removed from the stylesheet.

apply a compiled XSLT stylesheet to a whole document tree

The compiled stylesheet must have been created with xsltCompileStylesheet or xsltCompileStylesheetFromURI

apply an XSLT stylesheet given by an URI to a whole document tree

The string parameter is the URI of the XSLT stylesheet. In case of an error during stylesheet compilation or stylesheet application all children of the root node are removed and the error status is set in the attribute list of the root node of the input document.
