Struts JSTL Migration

[Kevin Gutch <kg...@protechemail.com>]

Hi,

I have an existing application that I am completely migrating to JSF. 
Everything seems fine but I am trying to figure out what to do with an 
area of the app where I use
<x:transform xml="${xml}" xslt="${xslt}" />. This does not want to seem 
to work with JSF. Should it? If not what are my alternatives?

Thanks

Kevin

I have solved the same problem moths ago.

I supose you have dom and xslt/dom in the xml and xslt vars.

I developed a managedbean based on dom4j.

Move the code you youe to ooad xml and xslt to that bean and make a
getTransformedData() method like this

public String getTransformedData() {
  // load the transformer using JAXP
        TransformerFactory factory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
        Transformer transformer = factory.newTransformer(
            new StreamSource( stylesheet )
        );

        // now lets style the given document
        DocumentSource source = new DocumentSource( document );
        DocumentResult result = new DocumentResult();
        transformer.transform( source, result );

        // return the transformed document
        Document transformedDoc = result.getDocument();
        return transformedDoc.asXML();
}


where document and stylesheet are your old xml and xslt.


then replace your tag with a simple

<h:outputText value="#{transformerBean.tansformedData}" ecape="false" />
