Re: [xsl] Running xsltproc does not produce any output

["ohaya ohaya@xxxxxxxxx" <xsl-list-service@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

 Hi,
I think I spoke too soon.
I've been trying to modify the original example below, which uses the $input
variable that gets set from the stringparam on the xsltproc command line, to
populate the before-tab and after-tab vars, to work with the incoming XML,
auditrecord.xml, but I don't quite know how to populate the vars from just the
incoming request?B 

I think that structurally, I need something like:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>


<xsl:variable name="before-tab" select=" substring-before(
substring-after($input, '='), '[Tab]' ) " />B B  <<<< I'm not sure how to set
these vars, since there is no $input....
<xsl:variable name="after-tab" select=" substring-before(
substring-after($input, '[Tab]'), ';') " />


<!-- Identity transform to copy everything except <ExtraDetails> -->
<xsl:template match="@*|node()">
B B B  <xsl:copy>
B B B B B  <xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()" />
B B B  </xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>


<xsl:template match="/syslog/audit_record/ExtraDetails">

<ExtraDetails>

<xsl:choose>B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B 

B B B  <xsl:when test="string-length($before-tab) =
string-length($after-tab)">
B B B B B B B  <xsl:copy>B B B B B 
B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B  <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< This is not
correct... will need to modify the original <ExtraDetails> line
B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B  <xsl:value-of select="." />
B B B B B B B  </xsl:copy>
B B B  </xsl:when>


B B B 
<xsl:otherwise>B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B 
<<<<<<<<<<<<< I think that this part is all right, i.e., if the string lengths
don't match, just pass the original <ExtraDetails>
B B B B B B B  <xsl:copy>
B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B  <xsl:value-of select="." />
B B B B B B B  </xsl:copy>
B B B  </xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>


</ExtraDetails>

</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

Can someone help with the above?B 

Thanks,Jim

  Liam,
I was able to get your suggested code working with xsltproc.. actually I kind
of "enhanced" it a bit...
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>

<xsl:param name="input"/>

<xsl:variable name="before-tab" select=" substring-before(
substring-after($input, '='), '[Tab]' ) " />

<xsl:variable name="after-tab" select=" substring-before(
substring-after($input, '[Tab]'), ';') " />


<xsl:template match="/syslog">

<xsl:choose>
B B B  <xsl:when test="string-length($before-tab) =
string-length($after-tab)">
B B B B B B B  <xsl:message>The string-lengths of the string in front of, and
after, the [Tab] are THE SAME</xsl:message>
B B B B B B B  <xsl:message>
B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B  before: <xsl:value-of select="$before-tab" />,
B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B  after: <xsl:value-of select="$after-tab" />.
B B B B B B B  </xsl:message>
B B B  </xsl:when>
B B B  <xsl:otherwise>
B B B B B B B  <xsl:message>The string-lengths of the string in front of, and

B B B B B B B  <xsl:message>
B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B  before: <xsl:value-of select="$before-tab" />,
B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B  after: <xsl:value-of select="$after-tab" />.
B B B B B B B  </xsl:message>
B B B  </xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>

</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

and I test with xsltproc:

xsltproc -o foo --stringparam input 'Command=Password$[Tab]Password$;'
initialparsetest.xsl auditrecord.xml
and:
xsltproc -o foo --stringparam input 'Command=Password$[TabXXXXX]Password$;'
initialparsetest.xsl auditrecord.xml

I am going to make a new post/thread about how I want to go forward after
this.
Thanks!
