Subject: [xsl] Compare logical expressions with XPath/XSLT From: "Michael Müller-Hillebrand mmh@xxxxxxxxx" <xsl-list-service@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 7 Mar 2019 15:53:42 -0000 |
Hi, I have a problem at hand that (I think) I understood on the whiteboard, but have no initial idea how to best tackle this using our beloved tools (currently limited to XSLT/XPath 2). We have larger objects (documents) and many child objects (chapters), and both can have a property, let's call it "Project Name". The task is to find conflicts between the document's and the chapter's project setting. Behind each project name there is a configurable boolean expression using AND, OR and NOT, which defines whether two projects may match or not. The definition of project names looks like this (with required="false" describing the NOT logic): <defs> <def name="project-1"> <set> <AND> <OR> <item required="false">A</item> <item required="false">B</item> </OR> <item required="false">C</item> </AND> </set> </def> <def name="project-2"> <set> <OR> <item required="true">A</item> <item required="true">C</item> </OR> </set> </def> <def name="project-3"> <set> <item required="false">C</item> </set> </def> </defs> If the document uses "project-1", a chapter with "project-2" would be in conflict with project-1, because { A OR C } is not a subset of { (!A OR !B) AND !C }. A chapter with "project-3" would be okay, because { !C } is a subset of { (!A OR !B) AND !C }. I simply hope for some pointers to similar problems. Thanks a lot for your time, - Michael MC<ller-Hillebrand
