reset Method (IXSLProcessor)

Resets the state of the processor to the state it was in prior to calling the transform method.

JScript Syntax

objXSLProcessor.reset();  

Example

var xslt = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XSLTemplate.6.0");
var xslDoc = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.FreeThreadedDOMDocument.6.0");
var xslProc;
xslDoc.async = false;
xslDoc.load("sample.xsl");
if (xslDoc.parseError.errorCode != 0) {
   var myErr = xslDoc.parseError;
   WScript.Echo("You have error " + myErr.reason);
} else {
   xslt.stylesheet = xslDoc;
   var xmlDoc = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.DOMDocument.6.0");
   xmlDoc.async = false;
   xmlDoc.load("books.xml");
   if (xmlDoc.parseError.errorCode != 0) {
      var myErr = xmlDoc.parseError;
      WScript.Echo("You have error " + myErr.reason);
   } else {
      xslProc = xslt.createProcessor();
      xslProc.input = xmlDoc;
      xslProc.addParameter("param1", "Hello");
      xslProc.transform();
      WScript.Echo(xslProc.output);
      xslProc.reset();
      WScript.Echo(xslProc.output);
   }
}

Resource File

The JScript example uses the following file.

Sample.xsl

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0">
    <xsl:output method="html"/>
    <xsl:param name="param1"/>
    <xsl:template match="/">
        The parameter value was: <xsl:value-of select="$param1"/>
   </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

Output

The parameter value was: Hello

C/C++ Syntax

HRESULT reset();  

Remarks

It does not reset any other properties, such as stylesheet or startMode.

The reset method will cause any internally buffered output to be thrown away (that is, it aborts the asynchronous transformation). Calling reset results in the readyState value going from READYSTATE_INTERACTIVE back to READYSTATE_LOADED.

A re-entrant call to reset from inside the scope of a call to transform results in that transform call finishing as soon as it can, returning E_FAIL with the error message "User aborted transform."

Versioning

Implemented in: MSXML 3.0 and MSXML 6.0
