Add the option
-m net.sf.saxon.event.TEXTEmitter
to the command line. This causes xsl:message output to be serialized using
the text output method instead of the XML output method.

Subject: [xsl] [XSL] How to display special characters in a
xsl:message
Hello XSL List members,
I would like to display characters in a message (eq. through
xsl:message) on the MS-DOS console such as : > (superior, ascii 0x3E)
I tried that :
XSL file :
===================================================
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:variable name="msg" select="'>'"/>
<xsl:message><xsl:value-of select="$msg"/></xsl:message>
<xsl:message><xsl:value-of disable-output-escaping="yes"
select="$msg"/></xsl:message>
<xsl:message><xsl:value-of disable-output-escaping="no"
select="$msg"/></xsl:message>
<xsl:message><xsl:text>></xsl:text></xsl:message>
<xsl:message><xsl:text
disable-output-escaping="yes">></xsl:text></xsl:message>
<xsl:message><xsl:text
disable-output-escaping="no">></xsl:text></xsl:message>
<xsl:message><![CDATA[>]]></xsl:message>
<xsl:variable name="msg2" select="'>'"/>
<xsl:message><xsl:value-of select="$msg2"/></xsl:message>
<xsl:message><xsl:value-of disable-output-escaping="yes"
select="$msg2"/></xsl:message>
<xsl:message><xsl:value-of disable-output-escaping="no"
select="$msg2"/></xsl:message>
<xsl:message><xsl:text>></xsl:text></xsl:message>
<xsl:message><xsl:text
disable-output-escaping="yes">></xsl:text></xsl:message>
<xsl:message><xsl:text
disable-output-escaping="no">></xsl:text></xsl:message>
<xsl:message><![CDATA[>]]></xsl:message>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
XML File
===================================================
Any valid XML file
Output :
Saxon 8.9J
===================================================

==================================================
Although chapter 4.7 of XSLT2.0 norm says that
disable-output-escaping is deprecated and not REQUIRED to be
compliant, I would like to be able to have the character '>'
in the strings output by xsl:message.
Xalan looks right to me, as xsl:message are used for debug
purpose, or to be nice to the user and tell him what's
happening when things can be a little time consuming. So
outputting a '>' through xsl:message has little chance of
disrupting anything.
Although I prefer Saxon method that displays only what is in
the xsl:message (and no other string I didn't ask as Xalan
does) I can't make it output a '>'
But I can't stick with Xalan because I need XSLT2.0 features
to generated my site.
The XSLT2.0 norm does also says that the feature
disable-output-escaping is deprecated has been replaced by
character-map. But character-map looks "global" to me (it
seams to apply at the xsl:output level), and I want this
"no-escaping" only on some xsl:message, and not on my regular
output which should be properly escaped when needed.
For the same reason, I cannot make my output method="text"
(which has better chances of not escaping!) because I need
XHTML or HTML as regular output.
Any idea of how to get '>' (or any character XSL will escape)
on the MS-DOS console as xsl:message result with Saxon8.9
(without un-escaping '>' everywhere on my regular output) ?
Regards.
