You can't. There's a recent thread on the Saxon forum about this:

Okay, this gave me enought to *finally* figure it out.


The answer is, instead of generating your transformation as an XMLFilter,
use a SAXTransformerHandler. You can still pipeline transformations, and in
many ways the code is easier.

Though I'm still not sure how to do this in pure SAX, I can do it using
the javax.transform class. I think it would be worth posting my code
somewhere. While it might seem really easy to set up chains for those
fluent in java, it proved extremelly frustrating until I finally came
across the few lines of codes that did the trick.

When I first came across XSLT, I thought it was the most intuitive,
easy-to-understand language (and still do). In contrast, using javax is
the most unintuitive. I've come across so many different ways to form a
chain, and many of the examples were so close to what I needed that they
were tantalizing.

Thanks for your tip.
