[xsl] Re: nxslt (.NET XSLT Command Line Utility) version 1.3

["Dimitre Novatchev" <dnovatchev@xxxxxxxxx>]

This is a very useful tool I'm using all the time with XSelerator.

One of the notable features of the nxslt.exe command-line utility is that it
makes available at no cost the EXSLT implementation for .Net xslTransform.

What is very useful is the new capability of nxslt.exe to dynamically
integrate the latest available version of the implementation of EXSLT. In
contrast, users of other XSLT processors (excluding MSXML4) have to wait for
the next release of an XSLT processor in order to get its latest
implementation of EXSLT.

Speaking about the .Net implementation of EXSLT it is worth noting that just
a few days ago the first official release of EXSLT for .Net was produced.
Among other improvements such as the implementation of exsl:document and
accessing EXSLT functions in an XPath-only mode, some performance
improvements of the Sets module functions were carried out. For large inputs
these functions now perform from 30 to more than 100 times faster. The
source code of the project, therefore, could be useful to the developers of
other implementations of EXSLT.
