Hi Group,


I am working on xslt to transform an XML file to create another XML
file using XSLT,


my in put is an xml file like this


myInput.xml


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<Doc>
                <DocId><Dfx>1.0</Dfx></DocId>
                <DocId><Dfx>1.2</Dfx></DocId>
                <DocId><Dfx>1.01</Dfx></DocId>
                <DocId><Dfx>1.1</Dfx></DocId>
                <DocId><Dfx>1.11</Dfx></DocId>


</Doc>


and output will be all sorted and arranged order like this


myOutput.xml


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<Doc>
<Dfx>1.0
         <Dfx>1.01</Dfx>
         <Dfx>1.1
                 <Dfx>1.11</Dfx>
         </Dfx>
         <Dfx>1.2</Dfx>
     </Dfx>


What it means is my output xml file like tree structure


but i am not getting properly,,


i have written XSLT for this and please check it and give me the exact
solution for this


my xslt is like this


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
        <xsl:template match="/">
                <xsl:element name="Doc">
                        <xsl:for-each select="/Doc/DocId">
                                <xsl:sort select="Dfx" />
                                <xsl:variable name="zeroVersion" select="Dfx" />
                                <xsl:choose>
                                <xsl:when test="contains($zeroVersion, '.0')">
                                        <xsl:element name="Dfx">
                                                <xsl:value-of select="$zeroVersion" />
                                                         <xsl:call-template name="SubDfx">
                                                                <xsl:with-param name="version"
select="concat(substring-before($zeroVersion,'.'),'.')" />
                                                        </xsl:call-template>
                                        </xsl:element>


                                </xsl:when>
                                <xsl:otherwise>
                                <!-- <xsl:if test="contains($zeroVersion, '.0')">
                                        <xsl:element name="Dfx">
                                                <xsl:value-of select="$zeroVersion" />
                                                         <xsl:call-template name="SubDfx">
                                                                <xsl:with-param name="version"
select="concat(substring-before($zeroVersion,'.'),'.')" />
                                                        </xsl:call-template>
                                        </xsl:element>
                                </xsl:if> -->
                                </xsl:otherwise>
                                </xsl:choose>
                        </xsl:for-each>
                </xsl:element>
        </xsl:template>


        <xsl:template name="SubDfx">
                <xsl:param name="version" />
                <xsl:for-each select="/Doc/DocId">
                        <xsl:sort select="Dfx" />
                        <xsl:variable name="subVersion" select="Dfx" />
                                <xsl:if test="number($subVersion) > number($version)" >
                                <xsl:if test="starts-with($subVersion,$version)">
                                        <xsl:element name="Dfx">
                                                <xsl:value-of select="$subVersion" />
                                                        <xsl:call-template name="SubDfx">
                                                                <xsl:with-param name="version" select="$subVersion" />
                                                        </xsl:call-template>
                                        </xsl:element>
                                 </xsl:if>
                        </xsl:if>
                </xsl:for-each>
        </xsl:template>




</xsl:stylesheet>

The approach to this problem is:

(a) in the root template, apply-templates to the highest-level DfX element

(b) in the template with match="Dfx", apply-templates to the "logical children" of this Dfx element.

In your case, the highest-level element is the one numbered 1.0, and the logical children of an element are the ones whose number (a) starts with the parent's number, and (b) is one digit longer than the parent's number, ignoring any trailing "0" in the parent's number.

In 2.0 that looks like

<xsl:template match="Dfx">
  <xsl:variable name="num" select="replace(., '0$', '')"
  <Dfx>
    <xsl:apply-templates select="../Dfx[
        string-length(.) = string-length($num + 1) and
        starts-with(., $num)"/>
  </Dfx>
</xsl:template>

In 1.0 you have to replace the "replace" function with something involving substring().
