Re: [xsl] XSLT to convert to type substitution

---

---

Thank you so very much Florent for helping me out :-)
I am trying it out now.

In my case there is a pattern between the original element name and the type name, where elmenet name of xx:Foo
will always map to type name of xx:FooType. I will try my limited XSL skills to see if I can figure out how to adapt
you XSLT so I need not have a mapping file and instead use the pattern above.

Thanks again. This community rock!

Hi

I have an XML Schema that is being changed to use type
substitution instead of substitutionGroups (element
substitution).

I was wondering if any one can share an XSLT sample that
would convert according to examples of old and new
document below...

Provided you have a mapping document like the following:

    <mapping xmlns:xx="xx-uri">
       <xx:Element1 xx:Element1="type" xx:Object="elem"/>
       <xx:Element2 xx:Element2="type" xx:Object="elem"/>
    </mapping>

you can use the Modified Identity pattern as following.  Take
care to correctly handle the namespace bindings.
