Hi all,
I am trying to use the 'except' operator (to calculate set
difference) in a XSLT 2.0 stylesheet (using Saxon 9-b). My attempt is
below:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="2.0">
<xsl:output method="text" />
<xsl:template match="">
<xsl:variable name="seq1" select="(1,2,3)" />
<xsl:variable name="seq2" select="(1,2)" />
<xsl:value-of select="$seq1 except $seq2" />
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
The sets (sequences) will contain atomic integer values (the values
are not nodes). The above stylesheet is giving error:
XPTY0004: Required item type of first operand of 'except' is node();
supplied value has item type xs:integer
Is it possible to cast atomic values like integers above to a suitable
node, so that except operator works on such data ?
