RE: xslt2 grouping

2003-04-15 07:13:58

I can understand dp's point, when reading section 14
http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt20/#grouping of the spec it does give the
impression that @group-by removes duplicates (instead of 
accessing them
through current-group()).

If I was Mike (which I'm not;-) I wouldn't know which bit to change
given this comment.

Sorry, hardly constructive I know.  It was just in the first paragraph it 
states:

" Since grouping identifies items with duplicate values, the same facilities 
also allow selection of the distinct values in a sequence of items, that is, 
the elimination of duplicates."

...which on closer reading is fine, but could initially lead the reader into 
believing that grouping was in itself selecting duplicates and removing them.  
Possibly.  I think maybe I should do some closer reading first time round :)

cheers
