in thread XSLT processing huge XMLs

Is there any alternative to extent Sablotron ?... Needs to overcome the .Net solution that translates the xml in few secs... That means to work exclusively in win32. For small xmls Sablotron is excellent but considering huge xmls.. Dont know, maybe something to parse the xml in chunks translate those sequentialy (with xsl)and adding them in the final xml version of the xslt. Is there any hinds for that approach? Thanks for your concer ajt.

    XML::LibXSLT will install okay on Win32, you can build all the bits yourself, use the Cygwin version of Perl or install a pre-compiled binary, see below for more details:

      Unfortunatelly couldnt install them on the win platform (no ppm available and the cpan refuce to complete the task). I suppose that these are the alternatives that i was looking for? Any ideas on how to improve Sablotron on those tasks? Thinking that the XML::Parser::Expat memory leak is common to other perlish approaches... so a general alternative might be usefull. Doesnt it? am i missing something?

        Sounds like you are missing a C compiler. Get a copy of the latest free MS C compiler (involves installing tons of crap) or get your company to buy one. Either way the amount of money you save by being able to build open source on your MS box will quickly recoup the cost of the compiler.

        Er, the above is assuming that binary interoperability with MS is important, if it isnt then use cygwin perl and cygwin gcc. OTOH, a native compiler will probably result in a faster executables overall. (With some exceptions, AS'es Perl isnt optimal with respect to certain memory operations, especially realloc.)
