Doe Xalan make any promises about how many times it calls extensions
functions written in Java? For instance, if I call Math.random() ten
times in a stylesheet, will Xalan *promise* to return ten different
values? Or might it optimize the ten calls down to a single one?
Similarly does Xalan make any promises about the order in which it will
invoke different extensions functions?
I suspect the answer is No to both questions. However, in my
experiments, its behavior does seem a little more predictable. I wonder
if this is deliberate?
