Package: sablotron
Version: 1.0.2-4
Severity: normal
Using sabcmd, sablotron emits namespace specifications even
when it's the same as the parent element, instead of collapsing
things optimally. I may be using the wrong nomenclature, but this is
easier demonstrated than explained:
With this template:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
xmlns="tag:example.com,1999"
>
<xsl:template match="*">
<xsl:element name="{local-name()}" namespace="tag:example.com,1999">
<xsl:apply-templates select="node()"/>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
And this data:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<a>
<b x="y">
<c z="w"/>
</b>
</a>
We get this "correct" but super redundant output:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ns_1:a xmlns="tag:example.com,1999" xmlns:ns_1="tag:example.com,1999">
<ns_2:b xmlns:ns_2="tag:example.com,1999">
<ns_3:c xmlns:ns_3="tag:example.com,1999"/>
</ns_2:b>
</ns_1:a>
Both xalan and xsltproc give this output, which is much better:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<a xmlns="tag:example.com,1999">
<b>
<c/>
</b>
</a>
The fix for this should be very simple--just don't specify the namespace
for an element (prefix and xmlns="...") if it's namespace is the same as
it's parent. I haven't looked at the sablotron code, but this seems like
it should be an easy fix.
Attached is a tarball that has the template, the data, a run script that
runs it with sabcmd, xalan, and xsltproc, and a log of what the output
looks like. This should make this really easy to reproduce. =)
