Re: AW: Aw: AW: AW: Sort directory-list

OK. That makes sense. I've just realized a colleague uploaded some files with a different naming pattern (just numbers). I'll test again tomorrow with the original files. I don't think a more robust solution would be needed. We'll either do so normalization in a preprocessing step, or we will use your solution. There's no need to cover both situations.

Thanks a lot,
Denis

Now I’m getting another error which directly relates to the code:

I think this means you have file names of various structures e.g. some with no numbers in the file name, others with numbers, my code below kind of assumes their is a pattern like [a-z]+[0-9]+ so that the last argument to the fn:sort function always computes a sequence of sort keys of the same length and the same type of each of the positional keys.

Not sure I can come up with something more clever tonight, perhaps someone else can chime in or I will try to ponder this tomorrow.

Thanks, Martin. I've tried it, but I'm getting this error message:

Error in compiling XPath expression '//*:file => sort((), function($file) { analyze-string($file!@name, '[0-9]+')!descendant::*[not(*)]!(if (. instance of element(fn:match)) then number(.) else string(.)) })': Cannot resolve prefix for 'fn:match'.

I've just updated to Morgana 1.4.5.
