Does StylusStudio have Tracing/logging support. This will help to log result when processing transformations for big xml files.

Thanks,

You can use <xsl:message/> see details at http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt#message.

The messages will go into the "output" window.

hope this helps

Hello Ivan,

Thank you for your response. Is there an in-built support for logging; asserting in stylus studio that writes to a log file and asserts the conditions as it moves along the transformations.

Thanks,
Pooja

Pooja,

What do you mean by "assert the conditions"?

In the xsl:message body you can evaluate any expression
for instance

<xsl:message>
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</xsl:message>

If you need to generate log file you could create a stylesheet for that purpose that outputs text.

What are you trying to achieve?

Ivan,

Thanks once again. I am thinking to write to log files as the transformations go on and when some errror happens or anomaly in the output xml file, then to look at the log file.

To write another transformation file to generate log, I'm not sure whether it will be concurrent and happening in parallel as process is processing.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,
pS

<<"..some error happens or anomaly..">>

If by error/anomaly you mean an incoming document with a structure different from what you are expecting, you could build a simple schema so you can validate them before running the XSLT processor.

If you are trying to catch runtime errors such as stack overflow, xsl:message can be used to print messages to the standard output that can can be pipe to a file when you are running the XSLT processor from the command line.
