- Record transformations are invoked when the optional attributes
- <literal>backendsyntax</literal> and <literal>backendname</literal>
- as well as the <literal><convert></literal> element are specified.
- Record conversions come in two flavors:
- <literal><marc></literal> binary conversions between different
- binary MARC formats and MarcXML formats, and
- <literal><xslt></literal> stylesheet transformations performed
- on any kind of XML records. These conversions can be stacked in any
- order, and are performed linearly in file order.
- </para>
- <para>
- The binary MARC record transformations
- <literal><marc></literal> are defined using the following
- attributes: <literal>inputformat</literal>, <literal>outputformat</literal>,
- <literal>inputcharset</literal> and <literal>outputcharset</literal>.
- </para>
- <para>
- XML <literal><xslt></literal> transformation instructions
- accept only one mandatory <literal>stylesheet</literal> attribute,
- which is either an absolute path, or a relative path from the
- working directory of <literal>metaproxy</literal> to the location
- of the requested XSLT stylesheet.
