Hi people,
A short while ago there was a discussion going on about how well XSLT is
accepted and whether it will stay in the niche forever or if it will
come out. During that discussion I was wondering if anybody knows some
definite list of companies that have implemented XSLT as part of their
products.
For instance, a data transformation product may have add an optional
XSLT 1.0 filter when XML data is to be transformed. Or an EAI product
may by default use XSLT 1.0 to transform non-SOAP messages to the SOAP
format of that EAI product. Or some web server or CMS server may use
internally XSLT and gives you the option to modify it.
What I am interested in is both a list of systems that employ XSLT and
patterns about the way they employ it. Is there a common vocabulary that
is used with the XSLT filters? Is it easy to extend it (i.e., through
imports or an interface) or do you need to change the default templates?
Is XSLT a mandatory part, or is it likely that users work around it
(perhaps in MS products, where .NET technologies can be used as an
alternative)? Do some well known products use XSLT internally and could
you change it to change its behavior (i.e., suppose XSLT were used for a
default rendering of XHTML content in Konqeror, one could change its
default render behavior by changing this XSLT).
It is probably useless to try to get a full list, but I am very
interested in any sources or input you may have.
Cheers,
