Re: XSLT Text Processing: Fun with Anagrams

It took me a while to figure out the CVS repository since I'm using it
the first time on SourceForge -- but anyways, I got everything and
tried the 3 XSL sheets you mentioned.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
java -jar c:\dev\saxonb8-9-0-3j\saxon8.jar dictEnglish.xml
testGenerateAnagramDict.xsl > output.xml

Everthing looks great in the output except for one small thing: I
noticed that words with apostrophes were also being considered.

For example:
<aChain key="'aainprsst"><w>aspirant's</w><w>partisan's</w></aChain>

I think the above should be (if I'm not wrong with my understanding of
English words):
<aChain key="'aainprsst"><w>aspirants</w><w>partisans</w></aChain>
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

--------------------------------------------------------------
java -jar c:\dev\saxonb8-9-0-3j\saxon8.jar dictAnagrams.xml
testGetDictAnagrams.xsl > output2.xml which worked out great.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
java -jar c:\dev\saxonb8-9-0-3j\saxon8.jar dummy.xml
testGetAnagrams.xsl > output.xml

I don't think there's an option to call an XSL stylesheet without an
input XML, so I created a dummy xml file with just one node, but got a
blank output.

Please let me know if testGetAnagrams.xsl expects an input XML, if so
what it should be.

Hi Rashmi,

You should get the FXSL distribution from CVS, not from the zip files,
which are almost one year old.

The files you'd be using for the anagrams solution are:

    testGetAnagrams.xsl  Gets anagrams with a specific key, without an
anagram dict.

    testGenerateAnagramDict.xsl Produces an Anagram dict from the
regular English dct

    testGetDictAnagrams.xsl Gets anagrams with a specific key, using
an anagram dict

Please, do let me know if you still have any problems accessing the sources.
