Hi all, I've been developing XSLT 3.0's for-each-group element's implementation, on xalan-java repo's branch xalan-j_xslt3.0.
With the current xsl:for-each-group's implementation that's available on the above mentioned XalanJ repos's branch, I've a doubt with following XSLT transformation example (which is mentioned within XSLT 3.0 spec, within section "14.4 Examples of Grouping"), XML input document, <titles> <title>A Beginner's Guide to <ix>Java</ix></title> <title>Learning <ix>XML</ix></title> <title>Using <ix>XML</ix> with <ix>Java</ix></title> </titles> Desired XSLT transformation output, <h2>Java</h2> <p>A Beginner's Guide to Java</p> <p>Using XML with Java</p> <h2>XML</h2> <p>Learning XML</p> <p>Using XML with Java</p> The XSLT 3.0 spec says that, following is a solution to this XSLT transformation problem, <xsl:template match="titles"> <xsl:for-each-group select="title" group-by="ix"> <h2><xsl:value-of select="current-grouping-key()"/></h2> <xsl:for-each select="current-group()"> <p><xsl:value-of select="."/></p> </xsl:for-each> </xsl:for-each-group> </xsl:template> With the above mentioned XSLT stylesheet, the XalanJ's implementation produces following XML transformation result, <h2>Java</h2> <p>A Beginner's Guide to Java</p> <h2>XML</h2> <p>Learning XML</p> <p>Using XML with Java</p> As we can see, XalanJ's XSLT transformation result, doesn't have two XML elements within the first group (whose grouping key is "Java"), but only one. According to XSLT 3.0 spec, one of the items of original XML elements list is assigned to two groups, whereas, XalanJ assigns this XML element to only one of the group. Is for this, XSLT 3.0 spec's example's desired XSLT transformation output correct, or XalanJ's (repos xalan-java and its branch xalan-j_xslt3.0) XSLT transformation output correct? Any thoughts, shall be nice to know. -- Regards, Mukul Gandhi --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@xalan.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@xalan.apache.org
