I am using the .
Net XslCompiledTranform to run some simple XSLT (see below for a simplified example).
The example XSLT is meant to do simply show the value of the parameter that is passed in to the template. The output is what I expect it to be (i.e.
<result xmlns:p1="http://www.doesnotexist.com">
<valueOfParamA>valueA</valueOfParamA>
</result>
when I
use Saxon 9.0, but when I
use XslCompiledTransform (XslTransform) in .
net I get
<result xmlns:p1="http://www.doesnotexist.com">
<valueOfParamA></valueOfParamA>
</result>
The problem is that that the parameter value of paramA is not being passed into the template when I
use the .
Net classes. I completely stumped as to why. when I step through in Visual Studio, the debugger says that the template will be called with paramA='valueA' but when execution switches to the template the value of paramA is blank.
Can anyone explain why this is happening? Is this a bug in the MS implementation or (more likely) am I doing something that is forbidden in XSLT?
Any help greatly appreciated.
This is the XSLT that I am using
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:extfn="http://exslt.org/common" exclude-result-prefixes="extfn" xmlns:p1="http://www.doesnotexist.com">
<!--
Replace msxml with
xmlns:extfn="http://exslt.org/common"
xmlns:extfn="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xslt"
-->
<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:variable name="resultTreeFragment">
<p1:foo>
</p1:foo>
</xsl:variable>
<xsl:variable name="nodeset" select="extfn:node-set($resultTreeFragment)"/>
<result>
<xsl:apply-templates select="$nodeset" mode="AParticularMode">
<xsl:with-param name="paramA" select="'valueA'"/>
</xsl:apply-templates>
</result>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="@* | node()" mode="AParticularMode">
<xsl:param name="paramA"/>
<valueOfParamA>
<xsl:value-of select="$paramA"/>
</valueOfParamA>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
