[xsl] Re: How to make a xsl:function that returns the function()

[Toshihiko Makita <tmakita@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This problem has been resolved by changing the code as follows:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="3.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";
xmlns:ahf="http://www.yahoo.co.jp/tmakita";>

<xsl:template match="root">
<xsl:variable name="selectFunc" as="function(*)"
select="ahf:funcGetChildElementByName('d')"/>
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:sequence select="$selectFunc(.)"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:function name="ahf:funcGetChildElementByName"
as="function(element()) as element()*">
<xsl:param name="prmElemName" as="xs:string"/>
<xsl:sequence select="let $en := $prmElemName,
$f := function($a as element(),$elemName as xs:string) as element()*
{$a/child::*[starts-with(name(),$elemName)]}
return $f(?,$en)"/>
</xsl:function>

<xsl:variable name="ahf:funcGetChildElementByName"
as="function(element(),xs:string) as element()*">
<xsl:sequence select="function($elem as element(),$elementName) as
element()* {$elem/child::*[starts-with(name(),$elementName)]}"/>
</xsl:variable>

</xsl:stylesheet>

Sorry for bother you.
