XSLT 2.0 ?

Post by dfhtextpipe »

W3C finally released the XSLT 2.0 standard in January 2007.

Does TextPipe support both XSLT 1.0 and XSLT 2.0 or only the former?

Or does this depend on the installed version of MSXML in the Windows OS ?

From Microsoft:
MSXML versions 4.0 and later fully implement and support XSL Transformations (XSLT) Version 1.0 (W3C Recommendation 16 November 1999). If your XML application requires a later version of XSLT, Microsoft strongly recommends moving to the newer System.Xml framework classes, because all future XML development efforts will be focused there.
See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library ... 85%29.aspx
See also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MSXML

Questions arising:
  • Will TextPipe be enhanced to support their System.Xml framework?
    Can TextPipe be made to support XSLT 2.0 as implemented in Saxon 9.5 ?
