RE: [xsl] writing a plugin to access xsl files

["Michael Kay" <mike@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The usual approach is to set the output destination using the JAXP API, by
defining a StreamResult associated with a specific file. In XSLT 2.0 you can
also define an output destination using the href attribute of
xsl:result-document.
