Hello Martin,
thank you for your reply!
The group-wrap should be performed for sequences of <points> of @type =
'1'. <Points> of other types and completeley other nodes should not be
grouped.
The "group-adjacent" solution seemes obvious but I have to account for
various parent elements that all have different templates. Wouldn't
using the group-adj. solution mean that I have to edit each and every
template that can possibly contain <points>?
Thank you in advance!
Best regards
Christoph

the question of Charlie brought me to thinking about a problem and
solution that I came up with a few years ago.
A few words upfront:
- This is a _very_ stripped down example which doesn't reflect the
complete structure. I hope that I was able to retain all relevant
structural attributes that shape the solution.
- I included <parentA> and <parentB> in the example to account for the
fact that there are at least 20 different parents where the relevant
<points> can occur as childs. It's also possible that a parent holds
relevant <points>, completely different nodes and also another parent.
- I don't want to include <xsl:for-each-group > in every possible parent
for the sake of maintainability. Because of the loads of different child
nodes it seems to me atm that it's not sensible to write specialized
select-statements in apply-templates. Just select="@* | node()" and let
the child-nodes "somehow" take care of themselves.
Can you explain the criteria to "group"/wrap "point" elements without
having to infer that from the XSLT you posted?
Using
<xsl:template match="*[point]">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:for-each-group select="*" group-adjacent="...">
in my view seems preferable but I haven't quite understood which point
elements have to be wrapped.
