[xsl] Re: namespaces and xsl:template match

---

---

You are associating the prfix "UML" to two different namespaces
(respectively in the source.xml and in the stylesheet):

>  xmlns:UML = 'org.omg.xmi.namespace.UML'

and

> xmlns:UML="http://org.omg/UML/1.3"

So, in your stylesheet you are trying to match elements in the
"http://org.omg/UML/1.3" namespace, but there are no such elements in your
source.xml.

Remember: It is the namespace-uri that forms the expanded name of an
element -- the prefix does not matter at all and is used just for
convenience.

As a first step to correcting the problem, the "UML" namespace definition in
the stylesheet must be changed to be identical to the one used in the source
xml document.
