// The XSL source:
StreamSource xsl = new StreamSource(...);

// Create the transformer:
TransformerFactory factory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
Templates template = factory.newTemplates(xsl); // can throw TransformerConfigurationException (parent exception is: TransformerException)
Transformer transformer = template.newTransformer(); // can throw TransformerConfigurationException

// The data XML source
StreamSource data = new StreamSource(...);

// The transformed output:
StreamResult out = new StreamResult(...);

// Transform using the Transformer instance:
transformer.transform(data, out); // can throw TransformerException

Have a look at the StreamSource API and StreamResult API to understand the various ways by which it can be instantiated.

Version 1.2.1 of XOM, the XML parsing Java library written by Elliotte Rusty Harold is released.

To convert an XML based on a XSL, use this command:

$ xsltproc /path/to/xsl.xsl /path/to/xml.xml

The converted document will be written to STDOUT. To write to a particular file, you may use the -o parameter:

$ xsltproc /path/to/xsl.xsl /path/to/xml.xml -o out.html

Check the info/man pages for additional information.
