Oxygen XML Forum

Hi folks,

I'm using the refactoring tool to process huge multi-level directory structure of XML. I'd like to use the result-document xslt process to create a number of sub-files from each existing file and dump the new files into the same directory as the file currently being processed. Is there a built-in parameter for url of the current file already existing within the refactoring tool that I could use to populate the href parameter of the result-document process? Barring that, do you have any recommendations for achieving this?

Thanks,
Jeff.

Hi Jeff,

There is no such special parameter being passed to the XSLT stylesheet but you can use the base-uri() XSLT function to access the location of the current converted XML document.
For example we have our own refactoring operations which extract from a DITA topic the inner topics as separate files, in this XSLT stylesheet:
OXYGEN_INSTALL_DIR/frameworks/dita/refactoring/convert-nested-topics-to-new-topic.xsl there is a call to this function:
and the generateOutputFileName function is defined in the stylesheet OXYGEN_INSTALL_DIR/frameworks/dita/refactoring/utils/xslt-convert-inner-elements-to-topics.xsl where it uses the XSLT resolve-uri() function to compute the location of the file to write.
