Is there a way to modify the style sheet so that it transforms an XML document with empty tags as tag / ?

Question

I have extracted some code from codeproject to
reindent an XML document. Does anyone know how I can modify the stylesheet to make it so that the transform of an XML file will result in empty tags showing up as <tag /> instead of <tag></tag>?
// http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/43309/How-to-create-a-simple-XML-file-using-MSXML-in-C
MSXML2::IXMLDOMDocumentPtr FormatDOMDocument(MSXML2::IXMLDOMDocumentPtr pDoc)
LPCSTR const static szStyleSheet =
R"!(<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>)!"
R"!(<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0">)!"
R"!( <xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/>)!"
R"!( <xsl:template match="@* | node()">)!"
R"!( <xsl:copy>)!"
R"!( <xsl:apply-templates select="@* | node()"/>)!"
R"!( </xsl:copy>)!"
R"!( </xsl:template>)!"
R"!(</xsl:stylesheet>)!";
MSXML2::IXMLDOMDocumentPtr pXmlStyleSheet;
pXmlStyleSheet.CreateInstance(__uuidof(MSXML2::DOMDocument60));
pXmlStyleSheet->loadXML(szStyleSheet);
MSXML2::IXMLDOMDocumentPtr pXmlFormattedDoc;
pXmlFormattedDoc.CreateInstance(__uuidof(MSXML2::DOMDocument60));
CComPtr<IDispatch> pDispatch;
HRESULT hr = pXmlFormattedDoc->QueryInterface(IID_IDispatch, (void**)&pDispatch);
if (SUCCEEDED(hr))
_variant_t vtOutObject;
vtOutObject.vt = VT_DISPATCH;
vtOutObject.pdispVal = pDispatch;
vtOutObject.pdispVal->AddRef();
hr = pDoc->transformNodeToObject(pXmlStyleSheet, vtOutObject);
//By default it is writing the encoding = UTF-16. Let us change the encoding to UTF-8
// <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
MSXML2::IXMLDOMNodePtr pXMLFirstChild = pXmlFormattedDoc->GetfirstChild();
// A map of the a attributes (vesrsion, encoding) values (1.0, UTF-8) pair
MSXML2::IXMLDOMNamedNodeMapPtr pXMLAttributeMap = pXMLFirstChild->Getattributes();
MSXML2::IXMLDOMNodePtr pXMLEncodNode = pXMLAttributeMap->getNamedItem(_T("encoding"));
pXMLEncodNode->PutnodeValue(_T("UTF-8")); //encoding = UTF-8
return pXmlFormattedDoc;
Or, if there is some other method for reindenting a MSXML2::IXMLDOMDocumentPtr object where I can specify how I want empty tags to be stored, that would be great too.  However, I don't want it to lose its status of an MSXML2::IXMLDOMDocumentPtr object.
 I.e. I would like to still perform operations on the result as if it was still an MSXML2::IXMLDOMDocumentPtr object.
Thanks,
