In XSLT 2.0 you can get the current date and time using current-dateTime(),
and you can then convert this to a number by subtracting a magic baseline
dateTime to give a duration, and then divide the duration by a fixed
duration such as PT1S to get a number; you can then cast the number to an
xs:long.

Subject: [xsl] Generate Dynamic long value
Is there any way to generate a dynamic long value or create a
long value that represents the current time in a stylesheet?
I need to do this inside the stylesheet independent of any
data being transformed (coming in).
i.e.
stylesheet:
<xsl:stylesheet
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="1.0"> <xsl:output media-type="text/xml" method="xml"
indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:element name="dynamiclongvalue"><xsl:value-of
select="some function of xsl"/></xsl:element> </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
output:
<dynamiclongvalue>1234567890837683</dynamiclongvalue>
Thanks,
Matthew
