RE: Schema aware transformations

2005-06-23 00:38:52


-Does the SA processor require a source schema for every
transform (when
using schema-element() etc)?

No, a schema-aware processor can handle both typed and 
untyped input documents.


Is it the case that a schema-aware processor processing an untyped input
document behaves the same as a non-SA processor on that document?  

For example, I could use Saxon 8.4SA with my current stylesheets and
(currently) untyped source and I would get the same output as using
Saxon 8.4B?

(I'm trying to rule out any reasons for choosing 8.4B over 8.4SA)


-Is it possible to store the validated source (the PSVI?) 
and supply 
that for subsequent transforms?

Watch this space....


I think that's the clincher at the moment.

 
Other than the 2.0 spec, are there any good resources out 
there for SA 
processing?

There's a chapter in my book, but it was written before I had 
any real practical experience to share. So the answer is, 
very little. I've been meaning for a while to write some 
articles on the subject. I have given a few talks (the next 
one is in Prague on Saturday, but I think they're
full...)

(I'm in Prague this weekend too, but on a friends stag do - small world
isn't it?)

I have your books but as you say the chapter on SA processing doesn't
have many real world examples.  Those articles or lecture notes would be
useful...
