Subject: RE: [xsl] Sorting values that contain spaces From: JBryant@xxxxxxxxx Date: Thu, 21 Jul 2005 13:50:06 -0500 |
Hi, Mike, I'm using Saxon 8.4, but I tested it with Xalan-J 2.4.1 and got the same result (I guess you and the Xalan folks chose the same implementation scheme). Lazy bum that I am, I was hoping for a method that wouldn't require a Java extension, but I guess I'll go tinker with Java and see what I can do. I've already extended Saxon with my own Java class (to get a list of filenames from a directory), so it's not a total mystery. The source code for Saxon must include at least one collation class already, so I'll start with that and the Java API reference. Any advice or samples of collation classes that you might be able to point to would be much appreciated, of course. Thanks.

XSLT 2.0 and Saxon 8 give you control over the choice of collating sequence (though you need to understand the underlying Java mechanisms pretty well to exploit this).
