| : It is a language for describing XML transformations, | : much like SQL, is a language for describing database queries. | : As such, there is no problem for people escaping into XSLT | : from inside Java. However, it is just bad engineering to | : do it the other way around. | | This is actually an interesting point. Is it a viable option, then, to | define the Java bindings as escapes into XSLT Isn't this what the JAXP 1.1 "TRAX" effort did? The DOM group is looking at an XPath API as well. | : Just about every database company would cry foul play if a | : proprietary language (like Java) were allowed to be embedded | : in SQL.... In the same way, xsl:script, which allows embedding | : Java (and other languages) in XSLT is a very bad idea. | | I guess you didn't buy into Oracle's "Java in the database" propaganda? In Oracle, before you can use Java in SQL, you actually create a SQL-flavored interface for your static Java implementation class methods so to the rest of the database your Java code looks indistinguishable from a normal PL/SQL stored function or stored procedure. ______________________________________________________________ Steve Muench, Lead XML Evangelist & Consulting Product Manager BC4J & XSQL Servlet Development Teams, Oracle Rep to XSL WG Author "Building Oracle XML Applications", O'Reilly http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/orxmlapp/ XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
