A TransformerFactory instance can be used to create * {@link javax.xml.transform.Transformer} and * {@link javax.xml.transform.Templates} objects.
* *The system property that determines which Factory implementation
 * to create is named "javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory".
 * This property names a concrete subclass of the
 * TransformerFactory abstract class. If the property is not
 * defined, a platform default is be used.
Obtain a new instance of a TransformerFactory.
     * This static method creates a new factory instance
     * This method uses the following ordered lookup procedure to determine
     * the TransformerFactory implementation class to
     * load:
javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory system
     * property.
     * java.util.Properties
     *  format and contains the fully qualified name of the
     * implementation class with the key being the system property defined
     * above.
     *
     * The jaxp.properties file is read only once by the JAXP implementation
     * and it's values are then cached for future use.  If the file does not exist
     * when the first attempt is made to read from it, no further attempts are
     * made to check for its existence.  It is not possible to change the value
     * of any property in jaxp.properties after it has been read for the first time.

     * Once an application has obtained a reference to a 
     * TransformerFactory it can use the factory to configure
     * and obtain transformer instances.
Obtain a new instance of a TransformerFactory from factory class name.
     * This function is useful when there are multiple providers in the classpath.
     * It gives more control to the application as it can specify which provider
     * should be loaded.
Once an application has obtained a reference to a 
     * TransformerFactory it can use the factory to configure
     * and obtain transformer instances.
Setting the jaxp.debug system property will cause
     * this method to print a lot of debug messages
     * to System.err about what it is doing and where it is looking at.
