Transmorpher 1.0
Fluxmedia and INRIA are pleased to announce the availability of
Transmorpher 1.0.
Transmorpher is a software tool for defining and processing complex
transformations of XML documents. It can accept external
transformations (e.g., XSLT stylesheets) and provide a simple
transformation language offering unit transformations (suppression,
renaming, regular expression substitutions and query facilities). In
addition to generating, transforming and serializing XML documents,
it features constructors like merging, dispatching, querying,
iterating, and composing transformations. These transformations can
have several input and output streams. New implementation of these
constructors can be plugged in Transmorpher. Transmorpher can be used
as a compiler, an interpreter, a Ant task, a Servlet generator or
embeded in another program.
Transmorpher 1.0 is written in Java 1.3. It is the first full
implementation of Transmorpher as presented in [1]. This version does
not put emphasis on performances that we will consider in ulterior
version but on functions. Transmorpher takes advantage of external
resources (XML parsers, XSLT servers, Regular expression substituers
and many other optionnal components). A graphic user interface,
FlowComposer(http://www.fluxmedia.fr/flowcomposer/), is under
development at Fluxmedia.
Transmorpher is available to everyone (sources included) from
http://transmorpher.inrialpes.fr under the GPL license (other
licenses possible). Transmorpher is a joint development of the Exmo
team(http://www.inrialpes.fr/exmo) of INRIA Rhône-Alpes and
Fluxmedia. Its development is being supported by a ODL grant from
INRIA.
