This package implements StAX-specific transformation APIs. It provides classes which allow input from a StAX reader, that is, {@link javax.xml.stream.XMLStreamReader} or {@link javax.xml.stream.XMLEventReader}, and output to a StAX writer, that is, {@link javax.xml.stream.XMLStreamWriter} or {@link javax.xml.stream.XMLEventWriter}.

The {@link javax.xml.transform.stax.StAXSource} class encapsulates a {@link javax.xml.stream.XMLStreamReader} or {@link javax.xml.stream.XMLEventReader} and can be used as an input where a {@link javax.xml.transform.Source} object is accepted.

The {@link javax.xml.transform.stax.StAXResult} class encapsulates a {@link javax.xml.stream.XMLStreamWriter} or {@link javax.xml.stream.XMLEventWriter} and can be used as an output where a {@link javax.xml.transform.Result} object is accepted.
