I'm using Xalan 1.9
When compiling an xsl containing the following:
<xsl:template match="Items/value//@name">
<!--some stuff here -->
</xsl:template>
I get the following error:
"A node test was expected.pattern = 'Items/value//@name' Remaining tokens
are: ('@' 'name')
This works with the .NET xpath processor however. Isn't this valid xpath?
FYI we found the following workaround match="Items/value//*/@name" which
while not a general substitude, works for our particular case.
Yes, this is a bug. However, you can use the attribute axis as a
workaround:
Items/value//attribute::name
I've created a Jira issue and I'll be attaching a patch in a bit:
