Cannot run datetime extensions

[L Duperval <du...@videotron.com>]

Hi,

I am trying to use some date and time functions in my XSL but when I do, I get
this error:

For extension function, could not find method
org.apache.xalan.lib.ExsltDatetime.dateTime([ExpressionContext,] #NODESET).

My XSL declaration looks like this:

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
  xmlns:redirect="http://xml.apache.org/xalan/redirect"
  xmlns:datetime="http://exslt.org/dates-and-times"
  extension-element-prefixes="redirect datetime" version="1.0">

and my usage like this:

<xsl:template match="DATAFILE">
  <xsl:variable name="nextUpdate">
    <xsl:value-of select="datetime:date-time(@GENTIME)" />
  </xsl:variable>
  <NextUpdate>
    <xsl:value-of select="nextUpdate" />
  </NextUpdate>
</xsl:template>

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,

L

You are correct. I was misinterpreting the documentation.

What I want is to take a time that appears in my XML file, add an hour to it,
then round it to the next hour. So for example:

2010-06-06T03:45:00 and 2010-06-06T03:22:43 would both give 2010-06-06T05:00:00
as results.

So I think I have to do a combination of parse-date and date:add to make it
work. I'll be trying it out later today. If there is a better appeoach, I'm all
eyes. :)

Thanks,

L

It seems, there's not a function datetime:date-time(arg) in EXSLT. I'm
just curious, what do you want this function to do with the argument?

ref, http://exslt.org/date/functions/date-time/index.html

but there's a function:
datetime:date-time() which returns the current date & time
