Re: Xalan bug?

Sorry for sending so many posts on this subject..

I seem to have finally found the real bug..

Please consider this simple example..

XML file
--------
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<Parent>
  <node>a</node>
  <node>s</node>
  <node>d</node>
  <node>f</node>
  <node>g</node>
  <node>h</node>
  <node>j</node>
  <node>k</node>
  <node>l</node>				
</Parent>

XSL file
--------
<?xml version="1.0"?> 
<xsl:stylesheet
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="1.0">
 
<xsl:output method="text" /> 

<xsl:template match="/Parent">
   <xsl:for-each select="node[1] | child::node">      
  
     <xsl:if test="position() != last()">
       <xsl:text>,</xsl:text>  
     </xsl:if>  
   </xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

After applying the transformation, the outputs
received are :
1) With Xalan-J 2.6.0
,

2) With Saxon 8
,,,,,,,,

3) With MSXSL 4
, , , , , , , ,

It therefore seems to me, *that the test, position()
!= last() does'nt work correctly with Xalan-J 2.6,
when context is a union operator (|) *..

Regards,
Mukul
