I have a long list of <mac-group-2lvl> structures as below. Most are
unique. However in some cases, they are identical except for the
"ref" attribute value on the <teref> element.
One approach:
So, you can easily identify the ones you need to process differently:
1/ if they are identical, then deep-equal will be true.
2/ make an identity template and a template that will set the ref
attribute to "marmaduke", use a mode (since XSLT 2 doesn't have
fn:transform), and then use deep-equal
3/ encapsulate this in an XSLT function, and now you can write an
xsl:choose with test="my:i-need-to-update-ref-attribute(., $other):"
4/ the xsl:choose would ignore the following siblings that are already
processed in the earlier case (or write a recursive template or
function that consumes one or more structures each time round).
