Subject: [xsl] In the field of programming, where does xsl:apply-templates reside? From: "Costello, Roger L." <costello@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Sat, 8 May 2010 07:48:25 -0400 |
Hi Folks, Introductory textbooks on programming identify constructs common among programming languages: - looping constructs - branching constructs - sequencing constructs And others. Where does xsl:apply-templates reside within the field of programming? For example, if you were to map an XSLT program to, say, a Java program, what Java construct would you map xsl:apply-templates to? Perhaps asking how an XSLT construct maps to a Java construct is wrong, since XSLT is a rule-based language and Java is not. Do you agree? Perhaps a better question is, how does xsl:apply-templates map to constructs in other rule-based languages? (I confess ignorance of other rule-based languages). "xsl:apply-templates falls within the general category of _____________ constructs for rule-based languages." Would you fill in the blank please? /Roger
