- - ### Constructor Detail

    - #### XsltViewResolver

          public XsltViewResolver()

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### setSourceKey

          public void setSourceKey(String sourceKey)

      Set the name of the model attribute that represents the XSLT Source. If not specified, the model map will be searched for a matching value type.

      The following source types are supported out of the box: `Source`, `Document`, `Node`, `Reader`, `InputStream` and `Resource`.

    - #### setUriResolver

          public void setUriResolver(URIResolver uriResolver)

      Set the URIResolver used in the transform.

      The URIResolver handles calls to the XSLT `document()` function.

    - #### setErrorListener

          public void setErrorListener(ErrorListener errorListener)

      Set an implementation of the `ErrorListener` interface for custom handling of transformation errors and warnings.

      If not set, a default `SimpleTransformErrorListener` is used that simply logs warnings using the logger instance of the view class, and rethrows errors to discontinue the XML transformation.

      See Also:
        `SimpleTransformErrorListener`

    - #### setIndent

          public void setIndent(boolean indent)

      Set whether the XSLT transformer may add additional whitespace when outputting the result tree.

      Default is `true` (on); set this to `false` (off) to not specify an "indent" key, leaving the choice up to the stylesheet.

      See Also:
        `OutputKeys.INDENT`

    - #### setOutputProperties

          public void setOutputProperties(Properties outputProperties)

      Set arbitrary transformer output properties to be applied to the stylesheet.

      Any values specified here will override defaults that this view sets programmatically.

      See Also:
        `Transformer.setOutputProperty(java.lang.String, java.lang.String)`

    - #### setCacheTemplates

          public void setCacheTemplates(boolean cacheTemplates)

      Turn on/off the caching of the XSLT templates.

      The default value is "true". Only set this to "false" in development, where caching does not seriously impact performance.

    - #### requiredViewClass

          protected Class requiredViewClass()

      Description copied from class: `UrlBasedViewResolver`
      Return the required type of view for this resolver. This implementation returns AbstractUrlBasedView.
      Overrides:
        `requiredViewClass` in class `UrlBasedViewResolver`
      See Also:
        `AbstractUrlBasedView`

    - #### buildView

          protected AbstractUrlBasedView buildView(String viewName)
                                            throws Exception

      Description copied from class: `UrlBasedViewResolver`
      Creates a new View instance of the specified view class and configures it. Does not perform any lookup for pre-defined View instances.

      Spring lifecycle methods as defined by the bean container do not have to be called here; those will be applied by the `loadView` method after this method returns.

      Subclasses will typically call `super.buildView(viewName)` first, before setting further properties themselves. `loadView` will then apply Spring lifecycle methods at the end of this process.

      Overrides:
        `buildView` in class `UrlBasedViewResolver`
      Parameters:
        `viewName` - the name of the view to build
      Returns:
        the View instance
      Throws:
        `Exception` - if the view couldn't be resolved

        `UrlBasedViewResolver.loadView(String, java.util.Locale)`
