http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=6693 XSLTC xsl:sort does not work with nodeset variables Summary: XSLTC xsl:sort does not work with nodeset variables Product: XalanJ2 Version: 2.3Dx Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Minor Priority: Other Component: org.apache.xalan.xsltc AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] When saving a nodeset in a variable to reuse throughout a stylesheet any use of an xsl:sort within a xsl:for-each block results in zero nodes. This xsl:for- each block works fine without the xsl:sort statement. This works fine with Saxon 6.5. The example below shows the problem. Only <Name2> elements are produced in the output. There is a workaround - If you replace the nodeset variable with its actual select statement it works fine. Would using the same select statement multiple time cause a performance problem when using complex XPath expressions? -- Simple Test Stylesheet ----------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"; version="1.0" > <xsl:variable name='nodes' select="/MyNodes/Node[ID='1']"/> <xsl:template match="/"> <!-- This does not produce any output --> <xsl:for-each select="$nodes"> <xsl:sort select="Name"/> <Name1><xsl:value-of select="Name"/></Name1> </xsl:for-each> <!-- This works --> <xsl:for-each select="$nodes"> <Name2><xsl:value-of select="Name"/></Name2> </xsl:for-each> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> -- Simple Test XML File-- ----------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- <MyNodes> <Node> <ID>1</ID> <Name>Tim</Name> </Node> <Node> <ID>1</ID> <Name>Leanne</Name> </Node> <Node> <ID>2</ID> <Name>John</Name> </Node> </MyNodes>
