Normally the user applys an XSLT style sheet onto a source XML file or variable
and the result XML will be stored into ANOTHER file or variable.
Thats the "traditional" way of processing XSLT.
But what, if I want to replace the original file or variable completely?
Ok, I could do this after the actual XSLT processing in another step by
copying the result file/variable back to the source and delete the temporary
help file/variable.
But I could imagine that XSLT (1 or 2) offers a smarter, shorter way which let
me DIRECTLY
replace the original "in-place".
Maybe a parameter must be set on the top of the style-Sheet like
<xsl:replaceoriginal="yes"/>
or something similar. In this case the XSLT process could keep the result
(only) internally
and do the replace as last step.
Is this possible?
