How are XSLT files processed? -
i wondering, how xslt files processed. how interpreted , executed?
are xslt files read line-by-line , "executed" scripting language? or entire file read first , statements executed if entire xslt code well-formed? or.... ????
(please note, i'm c++ programmer first day xslt conntact. thing i've figured out, xslt not compiled machine code. :-) )
it vary 1 xslt processor another. can assume whole stylesheet read, validated, , converted internal representation, may optimized using rewrite rules, , internal representation executed kind of interpreter. more advanced processors, such saxon-ee, generate instructions - not machine instructions, kind of intermediate language such java bytecode, or perhaps custom instruction set interpreter execute.
