Re: [xsl] Grouping in match patterns

It seems the spec indeed allows this.
Furthermore, Saxon-JS 2 doesn't complain: 

Saxon 10.1 does:

Error at xsl:template on line 14 column 35 of out.xsl:
  XTSE0340  Cannot convert the expression
  {homCheck(child::element(Q{}a)/(child::element(Q{}b) | 
child::element(Q{}c)))} to a pattern
Errors were reported during stylesheet compilation

I haven’t tried to do any more investigation than that.

Here’s the stylesheet. The error above arises from attempting to process
itself:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
                xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";
                exclude-result-prefixes="xs"
                version="3.0">

<random xmlns="http://example.com";>
  <no-namespace xmlns="">
    <a><b/></a>
    <a><c/></a>
  </no-namespace>
</random>

<xsl:template match="a / (b | c)">
  <xsl:text>HERE</xsl:text>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="element()">
  <xsl:copy>
    <xsl:apply-templates select="@*,node()"/>
  </xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>



                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm
