  1. POProblem with XSL sorting
    text
    copied!<p>I am having a problem trying to sort with an XSL file using the XslCompiledTransform in CLR4.0. Here is my sample XML file (Note: there is a space after the second <code>&lt;foo&gt;</code> element):</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt; &lt;reflection&gt; &lt;apis&gt; &lt;api id="A"&gt; &lt;foos&gt; &lt;foo/&gt; &lt;/foos&gt; &lt;/api&gt; &lt;api id="B"&gt; &lt;foos&gt; &lt;foo/&gt; &lt;/foos&gt; &lt;/api&gt; &lt;/apis&gt; &lt;/reflection&gt; </code></pre> <p>When I apply the following XSL file:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0"?&gt; &lt;xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.1"&gt; &lt;xsl:template match="/"&gt; &lt;html&gt; &lt;body&gt; &lt;table&gt; &lt;xsl:apply-templates select="/reflection/apis/api"&gt; &lt;xsl:sort select="@id" /&gt; &lt;/xsl:apply-templates&gt; &lt;/table&gt; &lt;/body&gt; &lt;/html&gt; &lt;/xsl:template&gt; &lt;xsl:template match="api"&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt; &lt;xsl:value-of select="@id" /&gt; &lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;/xsl:template&gt; &lt;/xsl:stylesheet&gt; </code></pre> <p>I get the following result:</p> <pre><code>&lt;html&gt; &lt;body&gt; &lt;table&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt;B&lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt;A&lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;/table&gt; &lt;/body&gt; &lt;/html&gt; </code></pre> <p>However, if I remove the space after the second <code>&lt;foo&gt;</code> element, the resulting file is sorted correctly. This seems like it's probably a bug in the XslCompiledTransform, but I was hoping someone might have a workaround.</p> <p>Edit: If anyone is having trouble reproducing it, here is the code I am using:</p> <pre><code>XslCompiledTransform xslt = new XslCompiledTransform(); XsltSettings transformSettings = new XsltSettings(true, true); xslt.Load("CreateVSToc.xsl", transformSettings, new XmlUrlResolver()); XmlReaderSettings readerSettings = new XmlReaderSettings(); readerSettings.IgnoreWhitespace = true; Stream readStream = File.Open("reflection.xml", FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read, FileShare.ReadWrite | FileShare.Delete); using (XmlReader reader = XmlReader.Create(readStream, readerSettings)) { Stream outputStream = File.Open("toc.xml", FileMode.Create, FileAccess.Write, FileShare.Read | FileShare.Delete); using (XmlWriter writer = XmlWriter.Create(outputStream, xslt.OutputSettings)) { XsltArgumentList arguments = new XsltArgumentList(); xslt.Transform(reader, arguments, writer); } } </code></pre>
