[jira] Resolved: (XALANC-528) evaluation of xpath expression containing number-functions failes
[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XALANC-528?page=all ]
David Bertoni resolved XALANC-528:
----------------------------------
Resolution: Invalid
The XPath 1.0 grammar limits what can appear as a step in an location path:
http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath#section-Location-Steps
In general, a function cannot appear as a step. Unfortunately, you are also tripping another Xalan-C 1.9 bug related to the substitution of tokens in error messages. This error message should read:
XPathParserException: 'position' is an unknown node type.
That bug is already fixed in the repository.

> Key: XALANC-528
> URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XALANC-528
> Project: XalanC
> Type: Bug
> Components: XalanC
> Versions: CurrentCVS
> Environment: SuSE Linux 9.3
> Reporter: Axel Weiss
> Attachments: test.xml, test1.xsl, test2.xsl, test3.xsl
>
> The evaluation of an xpath expression like
> <xsl:variable name="index" select="/test/b/a[@x=$name]/position()"/>
> fails. Error message: XPathParserException: '{0}' is an unknown node type.
> expression = '/test/b/a[@x=$name]/position()' Remaining tokens are: ( 'position' '(' ')')
> While very similar expressions like
> <xsl:variable name="index" select="/test/b/a[@x=$name]/@y"/>
> or
> <xsl:variable name="index" select="position()"/>
> give correct results.
> I'll attach some simple test cases.
