Subject: Re: [xsl] Merging multiple documents and combining their nodes From: "Mark Peters" <flickrmeister@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 13 Jun 2007 13:38:09 -0400 |
Is the following what you had in mind? The first template retrieves the components/component node-sets from the files listed in the filenames_file.xml document. The template defines this node-set as the temp variable.
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:exslt="http://exslt.org/common"> <xsl:output indent="yes"/> <xsl:template match="/"> <xsl:variable name="temp"> <components> <xsl:copy-of select="document(document('filenames_file.xml')/files/file)/components/component"/> </components> </xsl:variable> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="/"> <components> <xsl:for-each select="exslt:node-set($temp)/components/component"> <xsl:sort select="@name"/> <name> <xsl:value-of select="@name"/> </name> .. </xsl:for-each> </components> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet>
When I apply the stylesheet, Xalan displays an error: "Could not find variable with the name of temp." I presume the error is arising because the second template cannot find the temp variable defined in the first template. Would you agree? If so, how could the issue be resolved?
Thanks, Mark
in that case I'd do it in two passes, first pull in all the elements into one tree:
<xsl:variable name="temp"> <components> <xsl:copy-of select="document(document('filenames_file.xml')/files/file)/components/component"/> </components> </xsl:variable>
then use exslt:node-set so you can apply templates to that to do the grouping (eg muenchian grouping using keys as described in the faq or jeni's site. this is much easier now that all the nodes to be grouped are siblings of each other.
<components> <xsl:for-each select="exslt:node-set($temp)/components/component[..... .... </xsl:for-each> </components>
