This xslt renders an XML file of a java Collection instance, containing java.lang.Properties instances as csv, one row per Properties instance.
Create the xml file like so:
...
Collection canoes = new HashSet();
canoes.add(canoeProps1);
canoes.add(canoeProps2);
...
FileOutputStream fstream = new FileOutputStream("collectedproperties.xml");
try {
XMLEncoder ostream = new XMLEncoder(fstream);
try {
ostream.writeObject(canoes);
ostream.flush();
} finally {
ostream.close();
}
} finally {
fstream.close();
}
...
Copy the xslt below to a file (suggest you copy paste as formatting may hide one of the long lines in wordpress standard view). Throw it and your collectedproperties.xml at your xsl processor to get a rudimentary csv file.
