Variables within variables are not evaluated correctly ------------------------------------------------------
Key: XALANJ-2373 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XALANJ-2373 Project: XalanJ2 Issue Type: Bug Components: XSLTC Affects Versions: 2.7 Environment: JDK 1.5, Xalan 2.7.0 Reporter: Michael Hedenus Priority: Blocker Under some conditions variables within variables are not resolved. Here is a usecase. Run the following stylesheet with XSLTC and use the stylesheet itself as input. <?xml version="1.0"?> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:xalan="http://xml.apache.org/xalan" xmlns:java="http://xml.apache.org/xalan/java" exclude-result-prefixes="xalan java"> <xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/> <xsl:variable name="vars"> <var>var1</var> <var>var2</var> <var>var3</var> <var>var4</var> </xsl:variable> <xsl:variable name="test"> <xsl:for-each select="xalan:nodeset($vars)/var"> <xsl:variable name="s1" select="substring-after(., 'var')"/> <out org="{.}"><xsl:value-of select="$s1"/></out> </xsl:for-each> </xsl:variable> <xsl:template match="/"> <test-result> <xsl:copy-of select="$test"/> </test-result> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> The output should be (as it is correctly produced by Xalan interpretive) <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <test-result> <out org="var1">1</out> <out org="var2">2</out> <out org="var3">3</out> <out org="var4">4</out> </test-result> But XSTLC produces: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <test-result> <out org="var1"/> <out org="var2"/> <out org="var3"/> <out org="var4"/> </test-result> Somehow the content of $s1 is gone empty! Under unrepeatable circumstances this bug even leads to a NullPointerException. I consider this bug to be very evil. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
