javax.xml attributes of TransformerFactory.setAttribute

Question

Where can I find a list of attributes that are legal inputs for javax.xml.TranformerFactory.setAttribute(String,String)? Inputting an illegal string yields a nasty runtime exception.

Answer 1

The attributes you can use are specific to a particular XSLT implementation. The attributes you can use for Saxon, for example, are listed here:

while those for XSLTC are here:
