Permanence for Compiled XSL

[Endre Nagy <na...@netspace.net.au>]

Greetings

I notice it is possible to both
1. Process an XML against an XSL file specification, as well as
2. Compile the XSL file specification to an StylesheetRoot object and use this
against the XML.

My question is, can the StylesheetRoot object be given permanence, for example
as a .class file(ie in the form of bytecode), that can be reused, obviating the need to
recompile the .XSL

Yes - Sun released an early version of this recently. Checkout the Java
site.
