C/C++ Syntax

HRESULT readyState (long* pReadyState);

Parameters

pReadyState[out, retval]
The state of the current transformation.

Remarks

The readyState property returns the current state of the processor as follows.

State Description
READYSTATE_UNINITIALIZED (0) This is the initial state until all the required properties (in particular, the input property) are set. Calling the transform method at this point returns an error.
READYSTATE_LOADING (1) Not used by IXSLProcessor.
READYSTATE_LOADED (2) This is the state in which all required properties are set. You can now call the transform method.
READYSTATE_INTERACTIVE (3) Thetransform method has been called, but is not finished yet. Not used by IXSLProcessor.
READYSTATE_COMPLETE (4) The transformation is finished, but there may still be some output to read if you are reading the output as a string.

When you call the reset method or set any property, it reverts to READYSTATE_LOADED. If a required property is cleared, it reverts to READYSTATE_UNINITIALIZED.
