Question

I had XslTransform in an old program, and after converting the code the the .NET F 3.5, the compiler said that XslTransform is deprecated and replaced by XslCompiledTransform.

This is the old code :

XslTransform xslt = new XslTransform();
xslt.Load(xslTemplate);
xslt.Transform(xPathNav, null, fileStream, null);

I’ve changed the code to look like this :

XslCompiledTransform xslt = new XslCompiledTransform();
xslt.Load(xslTemplate); 
xslt.Transform(xPathNav, fileStream);

And now I get :

cannot convert from
‘System.IO.FileStream’ to
‘System.Xml.XmlWriter’

I tried to correct that by adding doing this :

XPathDocument doc = new XPathDocument(fileStream);
XmlWriter writer = XmlWriter.Create(Console.Out, xslt.OutputSettings);
xslt.Transform(doc, writer);

I don’t get errors anymore, but I the code is not doing XML transformation.

Any ideas ?

Thanks.

I think

XslTransform xslt = new XslTransform();
xslt.Load(xslTemplate);
xslt.Transform(xPathNav, null, fileStream, null);

can be written as follows with XslCompiledTransform

XslTransform xslt = new XslCompiledTransform();
xslt.Load(xslTemplate);
xslt.Transform(xPathNav, null, fileStream);
