Re: [xsl] loop timing and result-document flush

2007-05-02 07:31:12


Assuming my guess is correct, is there a way in XSL to assure that  
the document is finished writing before continuing to the next  
iteration in the loop? 

You can't even ensure that they are processed in any particular order,
so there is no "next" the items in a for-each may be processed in any
order (and in particular, in parallel).

Rather than checking the _result_ of a different item has already
occured (using doc-available() which would assume a particular
processing model, you shoudl test the input source for a repeated
instance of whatever it is that triggers the wresult document creation.

perhaps you just need to change

     <xsl:for-each select="ram|//repro|//page|//figure">


to

     <xsl:for-each-group select="ram|//repro|//page|//figure" group-by="@image">


then you will never hit two items with the same @image.

Incidentally 
       <xsl:variable name="zoomhtml">
         <xsl:text>build/zoom/</xsl:text>
         <xsl:value-of select="@image"/>
         <xsl:text>.img.html</xsl:text>
       </xsl:variable>

generates a document node with a child text node, which is quote
expensive better to do

       <xsl:variable name="zoomhtml" as="xs:string">
         <xsl:text>build/zoom/</xsl:text>
         <xsl:value-of select="@image"/>
         <xsl:text>.img.html</xsl:text>
       </xsl:variable>

or more simply

       <xsl:variable name="zoomhtml" 
select="concat('build/zoom/',@image,'.img.html')"/>
