I have a string of the form “abc.def.ghi” (java namespace ) where “abc.def“ is
the package name and “ghi” is the class name.
I need to extract these two from the complete string : “abc.def.ghi” -------→
“abc.def” + “ghi”
In java this would take about 1-2 lines of code, but in XSLT I cannot figure
out a way to do it without writing tons of code.
Why is the support for string manipulation and regular expressions non-existent
in XSLT, when XML is all about text ( more than java etc.. )??
I’m constantly frustrated by trying to write little templates to do these
simple things like splitting a string etc.
TIA
