Description

Possibly related to: https://saxonica.plan.io/issues/6143

I'm seeing differences in how spaces in paths are handled between 12.3.0 and 12.4.1. Especially with stylesheet_file, input_file, and output_file args.

Here is a sample Python. The stylesheet ident.xsl is just a 3.0 identity transform (<xsl:mode on-no-match="shallow-copy"/>) and ident.xml is just <foo/>.

Python (3.11.6 on Windows 10)

import os
from pathlib import Path
from saxonche import *

with PySaxonProcessor(license=False) as proc:
    print(f"Processor version: {proc.version}")

    xsltproc = proc.new_xslt30_processor()

    executable = xsltproc.compile_stylesheet(stylesheet_file=r"C:\Users\Dan Haley\Desktop\try_saxon\ident.xsl")

    results = executable.transform_to_string(source_file=r"C:\Users\Dan Haley\Desktop\try_saxon\ident.xml")

    print(results)

Saxon 12.4

Doesn't work:

  • r"C:\Users\Dan Haley\Desktop\try_saxon\ident.xsl"
  • "file:///C:/Users/Dan%20Haley/Desktop/try_saxon/ident.xsl"
  • "C:/Users/Dan Haley/Desktop/try_saxon/ident.xsl"
  • "C:/Users/Dan%20Haley/Desktop/try_saxon/ident.xsl"
  • Path(r"C:\Users\Dan Haley\Desktop\try_saxon", "ident.xsl").absolute().as_uri()

Works:

  • "file:///C:/Users/Dan Haley/Desktop/try_saxon/ident.xsl"

Saxon 12.3

Doesn't work:

  • "file:///C:/Users/Dan Haley/Desktop/try_saxon/ident.xsl"

Works:

  • r"C:\Users\Dan Haley\Desktop\try_saxon\ident.xsl"
  • "file:///C:/Users/Dan%20Haley/Desktop/try_saxon/ident.xsl"
  • "C:/Users/Dan Haley/Desktop/try_saxon/ident.xsl"
  • "C:/Users/Dan%20Haley/Desktop/try_saxon/ident.xsl"
  • Path(r"C:\Users\Dan Haley\Desktop\try_saxon", "ident.xsl").absolute().as_uri()

I did notice that in the exception the space seems like it's getting double percent encoded; a single space is encoded as %2520 (like " " -> %20 -> %2520):

Let's wait for what O'Neil has to say, unfortunately the SaxonC 12.4 branch doesn't seem to be online yet at https://saxonica.plan.io/projects/saxonmirrorhe/repository/he?utf8=%E2%9C%93&rev=saxon12.

In an experiment of my own I managed all the following to run from Windows and Linux:

from saxonche import PySaxonProcessor, PySaxonApiError

from pathlib import Path

with PySaxonProcessor() as saxon_proc:
    print(saxon_proc.version)

    xslt_processor = saxon_proc.new_xslt30_processor()

    filenames = [r'sample1 sheet.xsl', r'dir space test\sample1 sheet.xsl', r'dir space test/sample1 sheet.xsl']
    filenames.extend([Path(filename).as_posix() for filename in filenames])

    for filename in filenames:
        try:
            print(f'Running {filename}:')
            xslt_executable = xslt_processor.compile_stylesheet(stylesheet_file=filename)
            print(xslt_executable.call_template_returning_string())
        except PySaxonApiError as e:
            print(e.message)
        print()

Windows output:

It looks like we're always escaping the file path/uri input, so becomes %20, but if a URI is supplied with escaping already performed, %20 becomes %2520. In 12.3 we weren't escaping the URI at all, which is why in 12.3 file:///C:/Users/Dan Haley/Desktop/try_saxon/ident.xsl doesn't work. The correct behaviour is for us to pass through fully-qualified URIs (so file://* and http://*), which we will presume are already correctly escaped, and escape everything else. This is a little trickier than it sounds, but totally doable. Thanks for reporting!
