This example transforms the XML markup for countries and their capital cities into an HTML table. The transformation saves the result in a matlab.io.xml.transform.ResultFile object.

The example uses these files:

  • capitals.xml

<Countries>
    <Country><Name>Canada</Name><Capital>Ottawa</Capital></Country>
    <Country><Name>France</Name><Capital>Paris</Capital></Country>
    <Country><Name>Peru</Name><Capital>Lima</Capital></Country>
</Countries>
  • capitals.xsl

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">

<xsl:template match="/">
  <html>
  <body>
      <table>
      <tr>
        <th>Country</th>
        <th>Capital</th>
      </tr>
      <xsl:for-each select="Countries/Country">
        <tr>
          <td><xsl:value-of select="Name"/></td>
          <td><xsl:value-of select="Capital"/></td>
        </tr>
      </xsl:for-each>
    </table>
  </body>
  </html>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

Create a ResultFile object.

import matlab.io.xml.transform.*
resultObj = ResultFile("capitals.html");

Perform the transformation and save the results in the ResultFile object.

transform(Transformer,"capitals.xml","capitals.xsl",resultObj);

View the resulting HTML markup in the file.

type("capitals.html")
<html>
<body>
<table>
<tr>
<th>Country</th><th>Capital</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Canada</td><td>Ottawa</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>France</td><td>Paris</td>
