I'm trying to get what I've been working on into shape to distribute
more widely, and am wondering if my approach to modularizing the (xslt
2.0) code makes sense.
I have a main file that looks like: <!-- read the external citation style file --> <xsl:param name="citation-style" required="yes" as="xs:string" /> <xsl:variable name="styles" as="document-node()"
select="doc(concat('../styles/',$citation-style, '.csl'))" /><!-- set the citation class parameter (e.g. author-year) as specified in the style file --> <xsl:param name="citation-class" select="$styles/cs:citationstyle/@class"/> <xsl:include href="core.xsl" /> <xsl:include href="drivers.xsl" /> <xsl:include href="render-classes.xsl" /> Each of these included files in turn includes other files. So, for example, core.xsl looks like: <xsl:include href="core/css.xsl" /> <xsl:include href="core/functions.xsl" /> <!-- all function code --> <xsl:include href="core/render-mods.xsl" /> <!-- all general rendering code --> <xsl:include href="core/style.xsl" /> The "render-classes.xsl" file looks like this: <xsl:include href="render-classes/author-year/render.xsl"/> <!-- all rendering code specific to author-year class --> <xsl:include href="render-classes/note/render.xsl"/> <!-- all rendering code specific to footnote/endnote class --> I am using conditional statements on the class-specific templates to keep stuff separate in processing. Is it fine or me to be using include in this way, or is there a compelling reason for me to be importing instead? I recall Wendell's discussion about import precedence and such, but am not sure practically whether this matters in this case. Bruce
