No ... not all. You build the result tree under
<xsl:result-document> that is targeted for that
file. <xsl:result-document> just starts the building of a new result
tree and you build it just like you build the default result tree
when not using that instruction.
I hadn't found any complex examples in my searches, but was hoping
it would work like what you describe.
It does work like I describe, but I don't think you see how I'm describing it:
<xsl:template match="avee">
<xsl:result-document href="DMC-{modelic}-{sdc}-{chapnum}-....
<xsl:apply-templates select="..."/>
</xsl:result-document>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="whatever">
... some stuff that goes into that result document...
</xsl:template>
The <xsl:apply-templates/> above will end up building nodes under
<xsl:result-document/> even if that building is done from other
templates. You mustn't copy the <xsl:result-document> into the other
templates.
Once you finish building the tree and you process something after the
<xsl:result-document> instruction, the tree is done with and the file
is written (though likely it was being written along the way).
BTW, you can nest the instructions in order to create a separate file
on the side while you are in the middle of creating another
file. You just cannot re-open an <xsl:result-document/> file and add to it.
I hope this clarifies things for you.
