Re: [xsl] A challenge.. Group Periods of Data (1..5, 2..8, 4..9) (10..12; 10..14)

[Karl Stubsjoen <kstubs@xxxxxxxxx>]

A solution... (sorry, I lean heavily on xxx:node-set)

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
version="1.0"
	xmlns:ms="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xslt">


<xsl:output method="xml"/>

<xsl:variable name="MIN_RANGE_VALUE">0</xsl:variable>
<xsl:variable name="MAX_RANGE_VALUE">99999</xsl:variable>
<xsl:variable name="CURRENT" select="/"/>
<xsl:template match="A">

			<xsl:variable name="for_period_match">
				<xsl:apply-templates select="B"  mode="for_period_match" />
			</xsl:variable>

			<xsl:variable name="periods">
				<xsl:element name="result">
					<xsl:apply-templates select="ms:node-set($for_period_match)//B"
mode="periods"/>
				</xsl:element>
			</xsl:variable>

			<xsl:variable name="periods_transformed">
				<xsl:apply-templates select="ms:node-set($periods)//result"
mode="transform_periods"/>
			</xsl:variable>

			<xsl:element name="result">
				<xsl:copy-of select="ms:node-set($periods_transformed)"/>
			</xsl:element>

</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="result" mode="transform_periods">
	<xsl:apply-templates select="periods" mode="transform_periods"/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="periods" mode="transform_periods">
	<xsl:element name="periods">
		<xsl:attribute name="begin"><xsl:value-of
select="B[1]/@period_begin"/></xsl:attribute>
		<xsl:attribute name="end"><xsl:value-of
select="B[last()]/@period_end"/></xsl:attribute>
		<xsl:apply-templates select="B" mode="transform_periods"/>
	</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="B" mode="transform_periods">
	<xsl:copy-of select="." />
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="B[preceding-sibling::B/@period_begin &lt;=
@period_begin and preceding-sibling::B/@period_end &gt;=
@period_begin]" mode="for_period_match">
		<xsl:apply-templates select="* | @*" mode="for_period_match"/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="* | @*" mode="for_period_match">
	<xsl:copy>
		<xsl:apply-templates select="* | @*" mode="for_period_match"/>
	</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="B" mode="periods">
	<xsl:variable name="min_range_value" select="@period_begin"/>
	<xsl:variable name="max_range_value">
	<xsl:choose>
		<xsl:when test="following-sibling::B/@period_begin">
			<xsl:value-of select="following-sibling::B/@period_begin"/>
		</xsl:when>
		<xsl:otherwise>
			<xsl:value-of select="$MAX_RANGE_VALUE"/>
		</xsl:otherwise>
	</xsl:choose>
	</xsl:variable>

	<xsl:element name="periods">
		<xsl:apply-templates select="$CURRENT//B[@period_begin &gt;=
$min_range_value and @period_end &lt; $max_range_value]" />
	</xsl:element>

</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="* | @*">
	<xsl:copy>
		<xsl:apply-templates select="* | @*" />
	</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
