Description

We are having this issue while compiling an XSL file. gml:id is an attribute in the XSL file. Here is the stacktrace:

java.lang.NullPointerException: Internal error: expression ("gml:id",...) has no retained static context

I don't know if it is the same issue as https://saxonica.plan.io/issues/2851 so I had to create a new issue. Sorry if they are the same. Is there any release date for the next version? I've tested the same file with 9.6.0.9 and it works, but I would prefer not to use an older version.

Reproduced with a simplified version of the stylesheet in /Users/mike/Desktop/temp/test1.xsl.

The problem appears to be with the use of xsl:with-param having a select attribute that refers to a global variable whose value is a constant atomic sequence.

Status changed from New to Resolved

The problem is in the code in VariableReference.typecheck() that replaces a VariableReference by a literal if the value of the variable is constant. This is not setting the static context information on the new literal. Normally this does no harm, because the information gets added later, but on this particular path we need the context information before it has been aded to the tree.

A patch is being committed in VariableReference.typeCheck() on the 9.7 and 9.8 branches.
