  • Field Details

    • method_name

      public static final String method_name
      A method with this name must be provided by all post processing classes. The process(ResultingStructure) method of a certain postProc-class is called for all elements which are declared *
          with ... postproc  <pathToPostProcClass>, ...
      Post processing is a functional transformation: ResultingStructure is passed as an argument, and the same or a newly created different, (or the same, but modified) is returned as result. The calling code then integrates this result in the overall result structure. If null is returned, then the pre-processed element is totally dropped from the output.
