Hi Fabrice,
sorry for not being too specific on this one, our TODO list is kind of lengthy as usual. As XSLT is asked for every now then we are aware that some of our users would like to see an implementation. I guess I'll pass this question on to the list, so others can join the discussion.
Your approach via basex:xslt() sounds quite reasonable - we will discuss this but please don't expect any miracles soon ;-)
For now it would be the best to stick with our API and live with the overhead you get with XSLT-transforming intermediate results. I hope this is not too much of a show-stopper.

Thank your dear Michael, for your reply. Sorry, I missed a context for my request : When do you plan to include XSLT support in XQUERY ? For me, a basex function like 'basex:xslt($xslt_path as xs:string, $in as xs:node()) as xs:node() would be perfect stuff.

Hi Fabrice,
currently there is no XSLT support, but to quote Christian [1]:

Dear Sebastian,
currently, BaseX offers no extra XSLT implementation, but we know that some users have applied the Java 1.5 XSLT implementation to transform XML nodes from our database. As an indication, all Item instances offer a java() method which converts nodes to Java data types (e.g. DOM instances).
Hope this helps, Christian ___________________________
So the Item.java() methods might be worth a look to transform database nodes. Feel free to ask more.
Kind regards Michael

Dear all at DBIS, BaseX is a fantastic tool. When do you plan to include XSLT support ?
