Method

OutputStreamapplyTransformation(InputStream xsltStream, Map xsltParameters, InputStream inputXmlStream, OutputStream outputStream)
Apply the XSLT transformation (xsltStream) to the xml given (inputXmlStream) and write the output to outputStream 
return applyTransformation(new StreamSource(xsltStream), xsltParameters, inputXmlStream, outputStream);
Stringformat(final String xml)
Parse string as XML document and return string with reformatted document. 
return toString(getXMLDocument(xml));
Stringformat(Node node)
format 
try {
    Transformer transformer = TransformerFactory.newInstance().newTransformer();
    transformer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.OMIT_XML_DECLARATION, "yes");
    transformer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.INDENT, "yes");
    transformer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.METHOD, "xml");
    transformer.setOutputProperty("{http://xml.apache.org/xslt}indent-amount", "4");
    StringWriter sw = new StringWriter();
    transformer.transform(new DOMSource(node), new StreamResult(sw));
...
Stringformat(Node node, String indent)
Format generated xml doc by indentation 
StringBuilder formatted = new StringBuilder();
if (node.getNodeType() == Node.ELEMENT_NODE) {
    StringBuilder attributes = new StringBuilder();
    for (int k = 0; k < node.getAttributes().getLength(); k++) {
        attributes.append(" ");
        attributes.append(node.getAttributes().item(k).getNodeName());
        attributes.append("=\"");
        attributes.append(node.getAttributes().item(k).getNodeValue());
...
Stringformat(String unformattedXml)
format 
try {
    ByteArrayOutputStream out = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
    Transformer transformer;
    transformer = factory.newTransformer();
    transformer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.INDENT, "yes");
    StreamResult result = new StreamResult(out);
    StreamSource source = new StreamSource(new ByteArrayInputStream(unformattedXml.getBytes()));
    transformer.transform(source, result);
...
StringformatAttributes(Node node)
Returns formatted attributes of the node. 
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
NamedNodeMap attrs = node.getAttributes();
for (int i = 0; i < attrs.getLength(); i++) {
    Node attr = attrs.item(i);
    sb.append(' ').append(attr.getNodeName()).append("= '").append(attr.getNodeValue()).append("'");
return sb.toString();
voidformattedPrint(Node xml, OutputStream out)
formatted Print

return xmlOutput.getWriter().toString();
...
StringformatXML(String unformatted)
format XML 
if (unformatted == null)
    return null;
String unformattedNoWhiteSpaces = unformatted.toString().replaceAll(">[\\s]+<", "><");
Source xmlInput = new StreamSource(new StringReader(unformattedNoWhiteSpaces));
