Dear libxslt maintainers, I discover that performing a transformation with a invalid xpath expression in a template match attribute doesn't prevent the transformation to perform and lead to compromise the transformation logic. Instead, I would expect to have a proper failure like `could not compile match expression`
The way I read it, this behavior doesn't violate the specification. Section 17 "Conformance" says:
"A conforming XSLT processor must signal any errors except for those that this document specifically allows an XSLT processor not to signal. A conforming XSLT processor may but need not recover from any errors that it signals."
libxslt does signal the error and tries to recover by ignoring the template. Nick _______________________________________________ xslt mailing list, project page http://xmlsoft.org/XSLT/ xslt@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/xslt
