Re: Conditional merge of 2 XML files

The solution that Joris gave me was working perfectly but
unfortunately, we have
changed a bit the structure of the xml and now there are some cases where it's
not working.

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>

<xsl:template match="merge">
<xsl:variable name="test" select="document(test)"/>
<xsl:variable name="reference" select="document(reference)"/>
	<xsl:apply-templates mode="merge" select="$reference/*">
		<xsl:with-param name="test" select="$test/*"/>
		<xsl:with-param name="reference" select="$reference/*"/>
	</xsl:apply-templates>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="*" mode="merge">
<xsl:param name="test"/>
<xsl:param name="reference"/>
<xsl:variable name="n"><xsl:number/></xsl:variable>
<xsl:choose>
	<xsl:when test="count(.|$reference)=count($reference)">
		<xsl:copy>
			<xsl:copy-of select="$test[name()=name(current())][.=current()]/@*"/>
			<xsl:choose>
				<xsl:when test="self::testFamily|self::testNum|self::case|self::xcrdApi|self::api">
					<xsl:apply-templates mode="merge" select="*|text()|$test/*">
						<xsl:with-param name="test"
						select="$test[name()=name(current())][*[1]=current()/*[1]]/*"/>
						<xsl:with-param name="reference" select="*"/>
					</xsl:apply-templates>
				</xsl:when>
				<xsl:otherwise>
					<xsl:apply-templates mode="merge" select="*|text()|$test/*">
						<xsl:with-param name="test"
						select="$test[name()=name(current())][number($n)]/*"/>
						<xsl:with-param name="reference" select="*"/>
					</xsl:apply-templates>
				</xsl:otherwise>
			</xsl:choose>
		</xsl:copy>
	</xsl:when>
	<xsl:when test="$reference and $test[count(.|current())=1]">
		<xsl:if test="current()[text()[normalize-space()!='']][not(text()=$reference/text())]
		or not($reference[name()=name(current())][number($n)])">
		<xsl:copy-of select="."/>
		</xsl:if>
	</xsl:when>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
