Subject: [xsl] sanely ordering template imports? From: "James A. Robinson" <jim.robinson@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 6 Dec 2011 11:04:27 -0800 |
Folks, I've got a set of stylesheets that I originally set up with a primary stylesheet 'content.xsl' that imported four other stylesheets: content.xsl imports common.xsl imports clean-entry.xsl imports clean-xhtml.xsl imports clean-source.xsl Originally content.xsl had the bulk of the logic for processing the input content common.xsl had a few xsl:variable definitions set (the values of which are independent of the input) clean-*.xsl contained simple xsl:template match rules that elided or lightly modified the content. Basically content.xsl would pull the content from various sources and then kick of processing a mode that would be picked up by one of the three clean-*.xsl stylesheets. After this original setup had been in place for a little while I found myself needing to add new functionality to the clean-*.xsl stylesheets that could benefit from importing common.xsl not because of the stylesheet but because the editor I'm using (Oxygen) would complain about missing definitions. Basically both clean-*.xsl and content.xsl would be referring to variables defined in common.xsl. I can't be the first person who has encountered this, so I'm wondering what you all do in situations like that. Do you simply take the hit of redundant import statements, or do you restructure your stylesheets? If you do the latter, do you tend to follow a specific set of rules on how to lay out the imports?
