Hi, This issue is related to http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=341325 and a bit of http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=313711
I changed the processor to generate the "result-prefix" prefix in the refactored code paths (define XSLT_REFACTORED); but since I cannot foresee when we'll be able to enable this code, a patch for the current behaviour would be good, I think. The current code performs aliasing during transformation, every time it hits a literal result element; the refactored code computes the result prefix/namespace at compilation time. Note that Xalan and the old Saxon behaves the same way as Libxml2 currently does for XSLT 1.0. Only in the XSLT 2.0 spec, the resulting prefix needs to be the "result-prefix"; but the prefix still might be changed if there's a namespace clash (a rather unlikely scenario). (by the way: direct Libxslt related issues to [email protected]) Greetings from the unemployed front ;-) Kasimier -------- Original-Nachricht -------- Datum: Tue, 12 Sep 2006 17:07:50 +0200 > Age Jan Kuperus wrote: > > Hello, > > > > As far as I can see, the current namespace-alias implementation does > exactly what is necessary > > according to the standard.
