bug(?) when reusing a xsl:key across multiple templates

I suspect that I have found a bug pertaining to multiple key() function calls that share a common xsl:key but occur in different templates.  Both key() calls are operating on results-tree-fragments that I've turned into nodesets with the xalan:nodeset() extension.

When the calls are in different templates the second occurance of key() doesn't return any results.  If I combine template1 and template2 into a single template then I get correct results for both key() calls.  I have worked around the issue by cloning the xsl:key (key2) and no longer reusing them.

I'm using Xalan 2.7.1.

Results
====== Template 1 ======
count(tree1)=2
N1=1
N2=2
N3=3
====== Template 2 ======
count(tree2)=3


Test Code:
===============================================================
<?xml version="1.0"  encoding = "ISO-8859-1"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:xalan="http://xml.apache.org/xalan" exclude-result-prefixes="xalan">

  <xsl:key name="key1" match="*" use="text()"/>
  <xsl:key name="key2" match="*" use="text()"/>

  <xsl:template match="/">
      <xsl:call-template name="template1"/>
      <xsl:call-template name="template2"/>
      <xsl:call-template name="template3"/>
  </xsl:template>

  <xsl:template name="template1">
      <xsl:message>====== Template 1 ======</xsl:message>
      <xsl:variable name="rtf1"><N1>1</N1><N2>2</N2></xsl:variable>
      <xsl:variable name="tree1" select="xalan:nodeset( $rtf1)"/>
      <xsl:message>count(tree1)=<xsl:value-of select="count( $tree1/*)"/></xsl:message>
      <xsl:variable name="uniqNodes" select="$tree1/*[generate-id() = generate-id( key( 'key1', text()))]"/>
      <xsl:for-each select="$uniqNodes">
        <xsl:message><xsl:value-of select="local-name()"/>=<xsl:value-of select="text()"/></xsl:message>
      </xsl:for-each>
  </xsl:template>

  <xsl:template name="template2">
      <xsl:message>====== Template 2 ======</xsl:message>
      <xsl:variable name="rtf2"><N4>4</N4><N5>5</N5><N6>6</N6></xsl:variable>
      <xsl:variable name="tree2" select="xalan:nodeset( $rtf2)"/>
      <xsl:message>count(tree2)=<xsl:value-of select="count( $tree2/*)"/></xsl:message>
      <!-- ************  CHANGE FOLLOWING FROM key1 to key2 ************* -->
      <xsl:variable name="uniqNodes" select="$tree2/*[generate-id() = generate-id( key( 'key1', text()))]"/>
      <!-- ************************************************************** -->
      <xsl:for-each select="$uniqNodes">
          <xsl:message><xsl:value-of select="local-name()"/>=<xsl:value-of select="text()"/></xsl:message>
      </xsl:for-each>
  </xsl:template>

Re: bug(?) when reusing a xsl:key across multiple templates

Posted by Mukul Gandhi <ga...@gmail.com>.
I feel this is not a bug. My reading of XSLT 1.0 spec says, that a xsl:key
declaration (or a set of them) within a stylesheet are applicable only to
one document.

Two different nodesets (constructed from a RTF) are conceptually two
different documents, therefore as per above notion they cannot share
xsl:key declarations.
