http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=6072 XSLTC treats 'select' attribute incorrect if used in <xsl:variable> element Summary: XSLTC treats 'select' attribute incorrect if used in <xsl:variable> element Product: XalanJ2 Version: 2.2.0 Platform: Other OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: Critical Priority: Other Component: org.apache.xalan.xsltc AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] A small example to show the bug: XML input file: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <root> <A x="1"></A> <B x="2"></B> </root> XSL file : <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:template match="/root/B"> <xsl:variable name="foo" select="preceding-sibling::*[position() =1]/@x"></xsl:variable> <xsl:value-of select="$foo"></xsl:value-of> = <xsl:variable name="bar"> <xsl:value-of select="preceding-sibling::*[position() =1]/@x"/> </xsl:variable> <xsl:value-of select="$bar"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> Both variations of the usage of the select attribute should cause the same result. But they don't. The ouput of this using a normal Xalan transformation is: '1=1', while the compiled translet gives '=1' aus result.
