Cannot use variable substitution inside the decimal-format parameters

           Summary: Cannot use variable substitution inside the decimal-
                    format parameters
           Product: XalanJ2
           Version: 2.2.x
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Xalan
        AssignedTo: xalan-dev@xml.apache.org
        ReportedBy: vicentesalvador@netscape.net


This sintaxis:

<xsl:variable name="decimal_separator" select="doc/locale/decimal_separator"/>
<xsl:variable name="grouping_separator" select="doc/locale/grouping_separator"/>
<xsl:decimal-format decimal-separator="{$decimal-separator}"
grouping-separator="{$grouping-separator}" />

Gives the error:

javax.xml.transform.TransformerConfigurationException:
javax.xml.transform.TransformerException:
javax.xml.transform.TransformerException: An XSLT attribute of type T_CHAR must
be only 1 character!

org.apache.xalan.processor.TransformerFactoryImpl.newTemplates(TransformerFactoryImpl.java:946)

	at jas.core.servlet.srv_applyxsl.a(srv_applyxsl.java:532)

	at jas.core.servlet.srv_applyxsl.transform(srv_applyxsl.java:355)

...skipped...

This is because the length of the parameter is evaluated before the variable
substitution.
