Subject: RE: Re: [xsl] how to split one xml to multiple xml files From: Qin Ding <qding@xxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 3 May 2004 12:46:42 -0400 |
Michael: My goal is to use the xsl to split a large xml into multple smaller xml files and save them on the disk. I intend to use Ant task to execute it. So, the file name and directory where the splitted file should be saved in will be determined at run-time. That's why I tried to define variables for both directory and file name in my xsl. How can I achieve this goal? I read about saxon extension saxon:output and xsl:result-document. Which one is good for me for my task? How can I instruct the xsl processor what the directory the output file should be saved at using href attributes? and without using -o . Thank you.

It means you haven't specified the -o option on the command line, or the equivalent in the API. This is needed for resolving a relative URI in the href attribute. I tried to create another variable to specify the > directory like this: > <xsl:variable name="dir" select="d:\results" /> > But I got the error stating "XPath syntax error in {D:/results}: > QName cannot end with colon: {D:} > Transformation failed: Failed to compile stylesheet. 1 error detected. > The value of the select attribute of xsl:variable is an XPath expression. You probably meant to write <xsl:variable name="dir" select="'d:\results'" /> but that wouldn't do you much good either, because the href value must be a URI, not a filename. Michael Kay
