http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=5166 --- Comment #4 from Michael Kay <mike@saxonica.com> 2009-04-14 10:13:44 --- See also bug #4921 Use case encountered today: an up-conversion from a text file - needed to use group-starting-with on the sequence of text lines obtained effectively from the unparsed-text-lines() function. Had to convert these strings to nodes because group-starting-with only works on a sequence of nodes! Possible solutions: (a) group-starting-when as suggested above (accepting an expression rather than a pattern) (b) patterns that match atomic values - this would also allow generalizing apply-templates to work on atomic values. For example, allow the pattern ".[predicate]" to match an atomic value for which the predicate is true. That's a bit inelegant for the case of ".[. instance of xs:string]" - perhaps allow "~xs:string" or type(xs:string) for that case. -- Configure bugmail: http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug.Received on Tuesday, 14 April 2009 10:13:54 GMT
