Re: XSLT internal tree representation in memory

2003-09-24 08:06:49

Does
the XSLT transformer need to load in the whole source document in memory in
order to read and parse it to create the internal representation of the tree
in memory?

It is not specified that way but in practice most (all?) implementations
do that. The way Xpath gives random access to the whole input makes it
hard to do otherwise.
