I have the following simple regular expression: \b\w+\b Saxon reports the following error: syntax error at char 2 in regular expression: Escape character 'b' not allowed Does it mean I can't use word boundaries with Java Saxon parser? Is there an alternative free XML Java parser that has this functionality? The regular expression dialect used in XSD and XPath does not recognize \b (either as a word boundary or as a backspace). I think the reason for excluding it was probably a misplaced anxiety that word boundaries are language/culture dependent, though that's illogical since the dialect does

I have a production flow that combines XSLT and some shell scripts in about 4 steps before it reaches completion. I execute each step manually at the moment. I'm using Saxon 9 from the command line in Linux. Can I have the xsl's execute shell scripts.. instead of me? (I know I could achieve the desired result in another way with Ant or Make.. but prefer to stay in XSLT if it is not a huge effort to do so) Update : I've minimized my shell scripts and sped things up using Xproc. I'm not entirely satisfied with the result, but Xproc has improved life. Kai's suggestion below looks good.. but I

I want to transform XML files using XSLT2, in a huge directory with a lot of levels. There are more than 1 million files, each file is 4 to 10 kB. After a while I always receive java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space. My command is: java -Xmx3072M -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC -XX:+CMSClassUnloadingEna bled -XX:MaxPermSize=512M ... Add more memory to -Xmx is not a good solution. Here are my codes: for (File file : dir.listFiles()) { if (file.isDirectory()) { pushDocuments(file); } else { indexFiles.index(file); } } public void index(File file) { ByteArrayOutputStream outputStream = new

Currently I need to convert json to xml and xml to json vice versa using XSLT 3.0 & Saxon-HE. Below is my json abc.xml file <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> <root> <data>{ "cars" : [ {"doors" : "4","price" : "6L"}, {"doors" : "5","price" : "13L"} ] } </data> </root> Below is xsl file xyz.xsl <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:math="http://www.w3.org/2005/xpath-functions/math" exclude-result-prefixes="xs math" version="3.0"> <xsl:output indent="yes"/> <xsl:template match="data"> <xsl:copy-of select="json-to

I've this JRuby working code (stolen from Keith's Blog ), which wraps the SAXON xslt processor API. Now, I wonder whether I can and how can I wrap the same API in Ruby framework? Please tell me if this question is non-sense or if it can be improved in some way. This is the java doc reference for the wanted API . And this is the JRuby code I'm using: require 'java' module JXslt include_class "javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory" include_class "javax.xml.transform.Transformer" include_class "javax.xml.transform.stream.StreamSource" include_class "javax.xml.transform.stream.StreamResult"

I am using Saxon 9.4 home edition ( Saxon-HE 9.4 .NET ) to get support for XSLT 2.0 and XPath 2.0, and XQuery 1.0 in .NET. My code crashes when I load files without an URI. Is it possible to load xml/xsl documents without an URI related to the document loaded? If not, is there any way to define URI for elements embedded in dll-files? Any other solutions will also be appreciated, my only term is that the files must be loaded from within the dll-file. My code works perfectly as long as i load xml/xsl from file: const string sourcePath = @"C:\test\TestInvoiceWithError.xml"; const string xsltpath
