Subject: Re: [xsl] Saxon command-line: How to assign a sequence of
multiple strings to a global param
Indeed, I often use this approach, especially in cases where the
stylesheet is designed to be called from the command line. But if you want
to invoke a stylesheet that wasn't designed with that in mind, it's still
possible to set any parameter using the ?name=expression notation.
Sometimes it's appropriate to provide multiple "top-level" overlay
stylesheets offering different APIs.

Running Saxon from the command line (testing with Saxon-HE 9.2.1.2J—yes,
old as heck—on Bash 3.2.57(1)), is there a way to set the value of a global
parameter of an XSLT2 stylesheet to a sequence of strings?
<xsl:param name="MY_ARRAY" as="xs:string*"/>
When attempting to do it like this:
java -jar saxon9he.jar [options] 'MY_ARRAY="one" "two" "three"'
java -jar saxon9he.jar [options] MY_ARRAY='"one" "two" "three"'
Saxon seemingly interprets spaces as literal, and the value of the
parameter becomes one single string
<xsl:message select="count($MY_ARRAY)"/>
→ 1
instead of interpreting them as separators so that the value of the
parameter contains those three.
This could be done as follows, I think.
Pass a parameter to stylesheet as follows,
MY_ARRAY="one;two;three"
(there's only one string parameter. but we use a delimiter between words.
in this example ; is a delimiter)
In the stylesheet, we declare as follows
<xsl:param name="MY_ARRAY" as="xs:string"/>
Then we need to use fn:tokenize on MY_ARRAY.
You may choose a convenient delimiter for your environment.

The error message says it all: the function you
need is not available in the XSLT processor you are using.
Consider the below XSL-FO stylesheet that can make the check you need.
I hope this helps.

Subject: RE: [xsl] RenderX XEP current date error
Look inside the file you are running which is xep.bat.
You will find the classpath which likely includes Saxon 6 which is not an
XSL 2.0 processor.
You need to change this to use whatever XSLT 2.0 processor you are using.
