XSLT debugger

The XSLT debugger enables you to detect and diagnose errors in XSL transformations.

The debugger contains views and functionality specific to debugging XSLT. With these views, you can monitor the context of the stack frame and the results of an XSL transformation. Functionality that is geared specifically to debugging XSL transformations includes:

Note: Before you can debug XSL transformations, you must enable the XML Development capability. To enable this capability, select Window > Preferences from the workbench menu bar to open the Preferences dialog box. In this dialog box, choose General > Capabilities and, in the resulting Capabilities page, ensure that the XML Development capability is selected.

For an overview of XSL transformation debug functionality, see the Debug an XSL transformation Watch and Learn tutorial. This tutorial is in movie format and it provides an excellent starting point for XSL transformation debugging basics.
