[xsl] Re: dynamic xpath from variable evaluate function is failing

[M Balaji <msbalaji82@xxxxxxxxx>]

I need to construct the dynamic XPATH predicate from the input XML. I tried
with evaluate function, but  its not converting the String to XPATH
predicate. Can any one let me know how can I achieve this?

 Input: test.xml

<a>

<b test="(x=Windows)">content</b>

<b test="(z=Unix)">content</b>

<b test="(y=Unix) and (y=Solaris)">content</b>

<b test="(z=Unix) and (y=Windows7)">content</b>

</a>

Configuration/condition evaluation file (config.xml)

<root>

<condition name="x" value="Windows8"/>

<condition name="z" value="Unix"/>

<condition name="y" value="Solaris"/>

<condition name="y" value="Windows7"/>

</root>

XSLT: test.xsl

<xsl:variable name="conlist"><s><xsl:for-each
select="document('config.xml')// condition"><xsl:element
name="{@name}">test</xsl:element><xsl:element
name="{@value}">test</xsl:element></xsl:for-each></s></xsl:variable>

<xsl:template match="*[@test]">

<xsl:param name="t" select="concat('$', conlist,'//s','[',@test,']')"/>



<xsl:if test='saxon:evaluate("$p1",$t)'>

<xsl:copy-of select="."/>

</xsl:if>



</xsl:template>


Result:

I'm getting true for all above <b> elements

Expected result:

1st and 3rd <b> should not printed in the output (condition is failing)


Thanks in Advance,

Balaji. M
