XSLTemplate Object

Used for caching compiled XSLT templates.

Remarks

Before the Microsoft 2.6 XML Parser (MSXML), every call to transformNode or transformNodeToObject had to recompile the style sheet because the style sheet was simply passed as an XMLDOMNode. You can increase performance by caching the compiled style sheet and reusing it with the XSLTemplate object.

To cache a compiled XSLT style sheet, load an XSLT style sheet into an XSLTemplate object. This object is free-threaded and stateless, so it can be stored in shared .ASP application state. Then to transform a given document using this template, create an XSLProcessor object using the createProcessor method. The XSLProcessor object stores the state for one transform call and has a rental-threading model.

This object is an extension of the W3C DOM.
