Description

I'm making use specifically of the file:list() function, defined in EXSLT. It compilesand runs properly in Java Saxon but when I attempt to run it in saxon-js, I get the following error:

Static error in XPath in xslt/mfcFunctions.xslt {file:list($testNodes,true())}: Unknown function Q{http://expath.org/ns/file}list()

I'm using the namespace:

xmlns:file="http://expath.org/ns/file"

Any suggestions?

The EXPath file module is not currently implemented in Saxon-JS. (The same is true of the binary module). We hope to have these available in a future release.

  • Tracker changed from Bug to Feature
  • Subject changed from I am attempting to use an exslt function with saxon-js but will neither run nor compile to Request support for EXPath file functions

Recategorising this as a feature request. Note also, it is EXPath not EXSLT.

This feature has been implemented and tested and is very likely to find its way into SaxonJS 3. For Node.js only, not in the browser.
