Dimitre,

I think his purpose was to unit-test the f:add-entry-to-map(). If you never call it, it is not being tested.

Also, In his original version f:print-map() returns xs:string. I think that is what he wants: a "printing" function that returns a string.

Faithfully,
Sean B. Durkin

In addition, instead of creating N intermediate maps as in the provided code:

<xsl:variable name="m" select="map{'Linda' := 'Rosie'}" />

<xsl:variable name="m1" select="f:add-entry-to-map('Sally', 'Betsy', $m)" />
<xsl:variable name="m2" select="f:add-entry-to-map('Barb', 'Sue', $m1)" />
<xsl:variable name="m3" select="f:add-entry-to-map('Nadia', 'Valerie', $m2)" />
<xsl:variable name="m4" select="f:add-entry-to-map('Faye', 'Carol', $m3)" />



Just do:


<xsl:variable name="m" select="map{'Linda' := 'Rosie'}" />
<xsl:variable name="m1" select="map:entry('Sally', 'Betsy')" />
<xsl:variable name="m2" select="map:entry('Barb', 'Sue')" />
<xsl:variable name="m3" select="map:entry('Nadia', 'Valerie')" />
<xsl:variable name="m4" select="map:entry('Faye', 'Carol')" />


         <xsl:sequence select="f:print-map(map:new(($m, $m1, $m2, $m3,
$m4)))" />

Also, it is possible to get rid of the concat() function in the
definition of f:print-map().

Instead of:

<xsl:sequence select="map:keys($m) ! concat(., '-', map:get($m, .))"/>

Just do:

<xsl:sequence select="map:keys($m) ! (., '-', map:get($m, .))"/>

So, the complete code now is:

<xsl:stylesheet version="3.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"; xmlns:f="function"
xmlns:map="http://www.w3.org/2005/xpath-functions/map";>
<xsl:output method="text"/>


<!-- Test the two map functions -->
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:variable name="m" select="map{'Linda' := 'Rosie'}" />
<xsl:variable name="m1" select="map:entry('Sally', 'Betsy')" />
<xsl:variable name="m2" select="map:entry('Barb', 'Sue')" />
<xsl:variable name="m3" select="map:entry('Nadia', 'Valerie')" />
<xsl:variable name="m4" select="map:entry('Faye', 'Carol')" />


         <xsl:sequence select="f:print-map(map:new(($m, $m1, $m2, $m3,
$m4)))" />
     </xsl:template>

     <xsl:function name="f:add-entry-to-map" as="map(xs:anyAtomicType,
item()*)">
         <xsl:param name="key" as="xs:string" />
         <xsl:param name="value" as="item()" />
         <xsl:param name="m" as="map(xs:anyAtomicType, item()*)" />

<xsl:sequence select="map:new(($m, map:entry($key, $value)))" />
</xsl:function>


     <xsl:function name="f:print-map" as="item()*">
         <xsl:param name="m" as="map(xs:anyAtomicType, item()*)" />

<xsl:sequence select="map:keys($m) ! (., '-', map:get($m, .))"/>
</xsl:function>
</xsl:stylesheet>
