Hi, I have recently been using xslt:transform-report to get xsl:message reports. I am using BaseX 10.7 with various versions of Saxon-he. I have run example 4 from[1] with
- saxon-he-10.9.jar - saxon-he-11.6.jar - saxon-he-12.4.jar Only saxon-he-10 captures the messages for me. (although when using BaseX 11 I seem to recall only Saxon 12 captured them) Is this correct and expected? I understand the Saxon API may be a moving target. Perhaps the documentation could indicate a recommended Saxon version for a given BaseX version, rather than "For the moment, messages can only be returned with recent versions of Saxon." I have made minor updates to [2] to this effect. Please edit or revert if my understanding is incorrect. /Andy .
