[xsl] Designing streamable XPath expressions

2014-01-05 04:24:31
Hi Folks,

Suppose you want to count the <head> elements within the <section> elements.

You might use this simple XPath expression:

        count(//section/head)

However, that has a subtle problem when used in a streaming program.

I created a few slides that describe the problem, as well as the solution:
