xalan extension functions
XalanC provides the possibility for an application to add specialised functionality
through socalled "Extension Functions". This section describes a number of these which Timian
provides.
summary
Timians XalanC extensions function are written in C++, are made available through XPath expressions,
and can be called whereever XPath expressions are accepted in XSLT.
scope
other extension functions?
For the moment, Timian does not install any of the other extension functions that
comes with Xalan. There is no particular reason for not doing so, except to reduce
complexity.
If you're writing your own XSLT for an output format and find that you're missing e.g.
some of the EXSLT functions, let me know. I would be perfectly
happy to include those in the build
