the xml is as follows.
<MyXml>
<Machine1>
<SupportedOS>
<OS1 MajorVersion=1 MinorVersion=2/>
<OS2 MajorVersion=2 MinorVersion=0/>
<OS3 MajorVersion=1 MinorVersion=1/>
<OS4 MajorVersion=2 MinorVersion=1/>
<OS5 MajorVersion=3 MinorVersion=0/>
</SupportedOS>
</Machine1>
</MyXml>
I get the OS version from some source (say MajorVersion=x1 and MinorVersion=x2) inside this XML and Add both the xml programitically.
The task is to compare the Both the Minor and Major Version of OS and olny if the both of them are same to the source only then copy the Machine node to the transformed xml.
Let me know the ways to do it. I will try to code myself.
EDIT
I want to copy the Machine Node when any one of the OS node has MajorVersion=x1 and MinorVersion=x2.
As simple as this:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output omit-xml-declaration="yes" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>
<xsl:param name="pMajor" select="1"/>
<xsl:param name="pMinor" select="2"/>
<xsl:template match="/*/*">
<xsl:copy-of select=
"self::*[*/*[#MajorVersion = $pMajor and #MinorVersion = $pMinor]]"/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
When this transformation is applied on the following XML document (the provided one is severely malformed and not useful!):
<MyXml>
<Machine1>
<SupportedOS>
<OS1 MajorVersion="1" MinorVersion="2"/>
<OS2 MajorVersion="2" MinorVersion="0"/>
<OS3 MajorVersion="1" MinorVersion="1"/>
<OS4 MajorVersion="2" MinorVersion="1"/>
<OS5 MajorVersion="3" MinorVersion="0"/>
</SupportedOS>
</Machine1>
<Machine2>
<SupportedOS>
<OS1 MajorVersion="1" MinorVersion="3"/>
<OS2 MajorVersion="2" MinorVersion="0"/>
<OS3 MajorVersion="1" MinorVersion="1"/>
<OS4 MajorVersion="2" MinorVersion="1"/>
<OS5 MajorVersion="3" MinorVersion="0"/>
</SupportedOS>
</Machine2>
</MyXml>
the wanted, correct result is produced:
<Machine1>
<SupportedOS>
<OS1 MajorVersion="1" MinorVersion="2"/>
<OS2 MajorVersion="2" MinorVersion="0"/>
<OS3 MajorVersion="1" MinorVersion="1"/>
<OS4 MajorVersion="2" MinorVersion="1"/>
<OS5 MajorVersion="3" MinorVersion="0"/>
</SupportedOS>
</Machine1>
Compare attributes if they aren't satisfying the condition .. if yes then drop them..
Or else copy them
in the below code, first template copies all nodes,
second template drops OS that is having MajorVersion not equal to 'x1' and MinorVersion not equal to 'x2'
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="#* | node()">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="#* | node()"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="/MyXml/Machine1/SupportedOS/OS1[#MajorVersion != 'x1' and #MajorVersion!='x2']"/>
</xsl:stylesheet>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="xml"/>
<xsl:template match="/MyXml">
<xsl:apply-templates select="//SupportedOS"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="SupportedOS">
<xsl:for-each select="child::*">
<xsl:if test="#MajorVersion='1' and #MinorVersion='2'">
<xsl:copy-of select="//Machine1"/>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

I am trying to remove Error Description element if it contains empty value using xslt. i tried lot of options but it does not work.
For example if inside Acknowledgement all the element get null then output get empty acknowledgement so I want remove acknowledgement element empty tag.
below is xml and xslt
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<updateDocumentStatusResponse xmlns="http://xmlns.be/CommgrService_Message/v001">
<Acknowledgement>
<Result>SUCCESS</Result>
<ErrorCode>ErrorCode1375</ErrorCode>
<ErrorDescription></ErrorDescription>
</Acknowledgement>
</updateDocumentStatusResponse>

how can i achieve this?
I think this can be done if you're not thinking something big:
<xsl:if test="normalize-space(/ns0:updateDocumentStatusResponse/ns0:Acknowledgement/ns0:ErrorDescription) != ''">
<ns1:ErrorDescription>
<xsl:value-of select="/ns0:updateDocumentStatusResponse/ns0:Acknowledgement/ns0:ErrorDescription"/>
</ns1:ErrorDescription>
</xsl:if>
Edit:
One way to achieve this using extension function like exsl:node-set or msxsl:node-set to be able to further process a result tree fragment created in another template:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:ns1="http://xmlns.be/CSM/v001" xmlns:mhdr="http://www.oracle.com/XSL/Transform/java/oracle.tip.mediator.service.common.functions.MediatorExtnFunction" xmlns:oraext="http://www.oracle.com/XSL/Transform/java/oracle.tip.pc.services.functions.ExtFunc" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xp20="http://www.oracle.com/XSL/Transform/java/oracle.tip.pc.services.functions.Xpath20" xmlns:xref="http://www.oracle.com/XSL/Transform/java/oracle.tip.xref.xpath.XRefXPathFunctions" xmlns:socket="http://www.oracle.com/XSL/Transform/java/oracle.tip.adapter.socket.ProtocolTranslator" xmlns:oracle-xsl-mapper="http://www.oracle.com/xsl/mapper/schemas" xmlns:dvm="http://www.oracle.com/XSL/Transform/java/oracle.tip.dvm.LookupValue" xmlns:oraxsl="http://www.oracle.com/XSL/Transform/java" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:ns0="http://xmlns.be/CommgrService_Message/v001" exclude-result-prefixes=" xsd oracle-xsl-mapper xsi xsl ns1 ns0 mhdr oraext xp20 xref socket dvm oraxsl"

If you take a top-down aproach with literal result elements you are always going to get that element in the output. Your only choice then is to chain two transformations or use a two pass transformation.
The XPath expression to know whether the current node is empty (true) or not (false) is:
"not(node())"
For example, this input document
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<updateDocumentStatusResponse xmlns="http://xmlns.be/CommgrService_Message/v001">
<Acknowledgement>
<Result>SUCCESS</Result>
<ErrorCode>ErrorCode1375</ErrorCode>
<ErrorDescription></ErrorDescription>
</Acknowledgement>
</updateDocumentStatusResponse>
With this transformation
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:strip-space elements ="*"/>
<xsl:output indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="#*|node()">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="#*|node()"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="*[not(node())]"/>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Output
<updateDocumentStatusResponse xmlns="http://xmlns.be/CommgrService_Message/v001">
<Acknowledgement>
<Result>SUCCESS</Result>
<ErrorCode>ErrorCode1375</ErrorCode>
</Acknowledgement>
</updateDocumentStatusResponse>
Edit
The previus stylesheet is general. If you want to target specific elements, you need to match those elements with the pattern in the template. Example:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:strip-space elements ="*"/>
<xsl:output indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="#*|node()">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="#*|node()"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="ErrorDescription[not(node())]"/>
</xsl:stylesheet>
I am trying to do something that is probably very simple, but my very rudimentary xslt is not up to it.
Given the following XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<MyLists>
<List1>
<Place01 ctr="PTG">Lisbon</Place01>
<Place02 ctr="SPA">Madrid</Place02>
<Place03 ctr="FRA">Paris</Place03>
<Place04 ctr="ENG">York</Place04>
</List1>
<List2>
<Item01 type="country">Italy</Item01>
<Item02 type="person">John</Item02>
<Item03 type="city">York</Item03>
<Item04 type="city" subtype="capital">Madrid</Item04>
</List2>
</MyLists>
I would like to compare the text nodes from <List1> and <List2>, and, whenever their values are the same, pass, for each element, the attributes from <List2> to the corresponding items in <List1>, in order to get:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<MyLists>
<List1>
<Place01 ctr="PTG">Lisbon</Place01>
<Place02 ctr="SPA" type="city" subtype="capital">Madrid</Place02>
<Place03 ctr="FRA">Paris</Place03>
<Place04 ctr="ENG" type="city">York</Place04>
</List1>
<List2>
<Item01 type="country">Italy</Item01>
<Item02 type="person">John</Item02>
<Item03 type="city">York</Item03>
<Item04 type="city" subtype="capital">Madrid</Item04>
</List2>
</MyLists>
Ideally, I'd like to be able to copy whichever attributes these element possess, without having to specify them.
Many thanks in advance!
If I understand this correctly, you could do something like:
XSLT 1.0
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>
<xsl:key name="match" match="Item" use="." />
<!-- identity transform -->
<xsl:template match="#*|node()">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="#*|node()"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="Place">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:copy-of select="key('match', .)/#*"/>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
I want to convert the following source xml structure to the target xml structure using xslt transformation. I am mot able to convert the following source xml to target xml using xslt. Please help us in coneverting this.
Source XML

Some hint :
<EmployeeCompetencyRequest>
template match /XxhrPiEmpcompOutIntCollection
for-each-group XxhrPiEmpcompOutInt group by employeeNumber

<Competency>
value-of name
value-of proficiencyLevel
</competency>
/for-each
</Competencies>
/for-each-group

Hope you can finish it.
You can group users with for-each-group:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
exclude-result-prefixes="xs"

<xsl:output indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<EmployeeCompetencyRequest>
<xsl:for-each-group select="//XxhrPiEmpcompOutInt" group-by="employeeNumber">
<Name><xsl:value-of select="current-grouping-key()"/></Name>
<Competencies>
<xsl:for-each select="current-group()">
<Competency>
<Name><xsl:value-of select="competencyName"/></Name>
<ProfiencyLevel><xsl:value-of select="profiencyLevel"/></ProfiencyLevel>
<EndDate><xsl:value-of select="compDateTo"/></EndDate>
</Competency>
</xsl:for-each>
</Competencies>
</xsl:for-each-group>
</EmployeeCompetencyRequest>
</xsl:template>
Salut,
For XSLT 1.0 you must group widht xsl:key:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:key name="groups" match="/XxhrPiEmpcompOutIntCollection/XxhrPiEmpcompOutInt" use="employeeNumber" />
<xsl:template match="/">
<EmployeeCompetencyRequest>
<xsl:apply-templates select="//XxhrPiEmpcompOutInt[generate-id() = generate-id(key('groups', employeeNumber)[1])]"/>
</EmployeeCompetencyRequest>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="XxhrPiEmpcompOutInt">
<Name><xsl:value-of select="employeeNumber"/></Name>
<Competencies>
<xsl:for-each select="key('groups', employeeNumber)">
<Competency>
<Name><xsl:value-of select="competencyName"/></Name>
<ProfiencyLevel><xsl:value-of select="proficiencyLevel"/></ProfiencyLevel>
<EndDate><xsl:value-of select="compDateTo"/></EndDate>
</Competency>
</xsl:for-each>
</Competencies>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
I can't test it with Oracle ...

Explanation: Overriding the identity rule.
It should be
<FullDate><xsl:value-of select="."/></FullDate>
since you're already selecting the DateOfBirth in the match=""
You also have missing / in the three closing tags before the document end, and your namespace names are invalid because they must be absolute URIs.
Good luck.
I have a source list of xml in this format:
<metadata>
<metadatum>
<description>OnEnter</description>
<value>Hello World</id>
</metadatum>
<metadatum>
<description>OnLeave</description>
<value>Goodbye World</id>
</metadatum>
</metadata>
and a target structure like this:
<friendlyText>
<onEnter>[Content Here]</onEnter>
<onLeave>[Content Here]</onLeave>
</friendlyText>
Is it possible to create an XSLT that will map the 'value' field in the metadata hierarchy to the proper target node depending on the source 'description'?
I'm trying to get this done with Altova MapForce; it feels like there should be an interface to allow this, I'm just not finding it.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" >
<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="metadata">
<friendlyText>
<xsl:apply-templates select="metadatum"/>
</friendlyText>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="metadatum">
<xsl:element name="{description}">
<xsl:value-of select="value"/>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Output:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<friendlyText>
<OnEnter>Hello World</OnEnter>
<OnLeave>Goodbye World</OnLeave>
</friendlyText>
This transformation is a general solution that can work with any "target structure" that is in a separate XML document:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:my="my:my" exclude-result-prefixes="my">
<xsl:output omit-xml-declaration="yes" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>
<xsl:variable name="vUpper" select=
"'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ'"/>
<xsl:variable name="vLower" select=
"'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'"/>
<my:target>
<friendlyText>
<onEnter>[Content Here]</onEnter>
<onLeave>[Content Here]</onLeave>
</friendlyText>
</my:target>
<xsl:variable name="vTarget" select="document('')/*/my:target/*"/>
<xsl:variable name="vMeta" select="/*/metadatum"/>
<xsl:template match="node()|#*">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="node()|#*"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:apply-templates select="$vTarget"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="friendlyText/*/text()">
<xsl:value-of select=
"$vMeta[translate(description, $vLower, $vUpper)
=
translate(name(current()/..), $vLower, $vUpper)
]/value"/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
when applied on the provided XML document (corrected to be made well-formed):
<metadata>
<metadatum>
<description>OnEnter</description>
<value>Hello World</value>
</metadatum>
<metadatum>
<description>OnLeave</description>
<value>Goodbye World</value>
</metadatum>
</metadata>
produces the wanted, correct result:
<friendlyText xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:my="my:my">
<onEnter>Hello World</onEnter>
<onLeave>Goodbye World</onLeave>
</friendlyText>
Do note: Only for convenience, the "target structure" is inline here. In a real world case it would be better to keep the "target structure" in a separate file and to load it using the document() function. Only the line:
<xsl:variable name="vTarget" select="document('')/*/my:target/*"/>
will need to be changed to:
<xsl:variable name="vTarget" select="document('someFileUrl')/*"/>
