# Writing a URI Resolver for Output Files

Saxon also allows you to write an `OutputURIResolver`, which performs an analogous role for URIs specified in the `href` attribute of `xsl:result-document`. This is therefore applicable to XSLT only. The `OutputURIResolver` is called when writing of the output document starts, at which point it must return a JAXP `Result` object to act as the output destination. It is called again when writing of an output document is complete.

You can nominate an `OutputURIResolver` by calling `((Controller)transformer).setOutputURIResolver(new UserOutputResolver())`, or by calling `factory.setAttribute("http://saxon.sf.net/feature/outputURIResolver", new UserOutputResolver())`.
