Hi guys,
Just wanted to point out a small mistake in the pipeline concept. It seems
like a pipeline should not always (have to admit most of the times it does)
start with a generator. I accidentally ran into this .
An XSLT can load data by itself using document() and collection function. I
know that cocoon style of working is to usually use a generator instead of
calling the document function inside an XSLT. But not so for a collection
though.
Let me show you. To get this working in Cocoon I had to use a dummy generator
just to get this working. No big deal... just mentioning it.
<map:match pattern="mergefeatures">
<map:generate src="page/index.html"/> <!-- dummy generator -->
<map:transform src="xslt/merge/mergeFeaturesAndBenefits.xslt"
type="saxon"/>
<map:serialize type="xml"/>
</map:match>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:variable name="fb_topics"
select="collection('file:///C:/tmp/value-proposition/67/features-benefits/?select=*.dita')"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<result><xsl:value-of select="count($fb_topics)"/></result>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
