Hi all,
I'm curious, whether anyone is interested to have a Xalan XSLT 3.0
beta release, at this moment?
Or, any other thoughts about work that Xalan team has done so far,
with respect to XSLT 3.0 specification implementation.
One other essential thing missing is in my view is support for
xsl:next-match, it its, for example, kind of the working horse of the
Schxslt XSLT 2 or XSLT 3 Schematron implementations.
Thus if you want your XSLT 3 Xalan processor to be usable/compatible
with existing XSLT 2 or 3 stylesheets (like Schxslt 1 or 2) it needs
support for xsl:next-match.
In general, next to running samples from the test suite, I think it
might be worth by now to check how far your XSLT 3.0 branch works when
run against existing real life XSLT 2 or XSLT 3 code, Schxslt 1 and
Schxslt 2 being just one (but certainly important) example.
All meant as constructive input; congrats on the wide range of XPath 2
and 3.1 functions and XSLT 3.0 declarations and instructions you have
implemented so far.
