xslt-2.0

What would be the best way to populate (or generate) an XML template-file from a mapping of XPath expressions? The requirements are that we will need to start with a template (since this might contain information not otherwise captured in the XPath expressions).

The Services API will look for a classname in the file META-INF/services/javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory in jars available to the runtime. I found this file in WEB-INF/lib/saxon9.jar but when I istantiate a TransformerFactory, the
