Mikael,
With this XML:
<dataType>
<sequence>
<moRef name="ManagedObject"/>
<length>5</length>
</sequence>
</dataType>
And this XSL (on xalan):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso8859-1"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="text"/>
<xsl:template match="sequence">
<!-- Check if <sequence>-element has no <length> attribute.-->
foo
<xsl:if test="not(length)">
<xsl:message terminate="yes">
<!-- class name and attribute error message -->
Attribute:<xsl:value-of select="../@name"/>
Class: <xsl:value-of select="../../@name"/>
Error: sequence missing child element, length.
</xsl:message>
</xsl:if>
bar
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
I get:
foo
bar
which is what was expected. Same with empty-element <length/>. When I
remove the <length> element I get a termination message, again as expected.
Regards,
--A

Hi,
We are transforming and xml into java code using xsl/xslt in java.
Ny xsl look like this;
......
<!-- Start: Sequence -->
<xsl:when test="sequence">
<!-- Check if <sequence>-element has no <length> attribute.-->
<xsl:if test="not(length)">
<xsl:message terminate="yes">
<!-- class name and attribute error message -->
Attribute:<xsl:value-of select="../@name"/>
Class: <xsl:value-of select="../../@name"/>
Error: sequence missing child element, length.
</xsl:message>
</xsl:if>
........
When I execute my transformation it fails ( see error below).
The following xml is ok:
<dataType>
<sequence>
<long>
<range>
<min>-500</min> <max>500</max>
</range>
</long>
<length>12</length>
</sequence>
</dataType>
But when this xml is tranformed ( below) it fails:
<dataType>
<sequence>
<moRef name="ManagedObject"/>
<length>5</length>
</sequence>
</dataType>
I interpret it as when I have a single <element/> I get the error but when
I have <element></element> it is a ok.
Do I have to make any settings to the xml transformation?
