[libxml-devel] Ruby libxslt not working with exslt() extensions

Thu Nov 13 02:21:00 EST 2008

Hi there,

I installed the Windows binaries for "libxslt-ruby-0.8.2-x86-mswin32-60" gem
and it is working fine (able to apply an XSLT to a XML doc).

However I tried to transform a xml docbook file using Docbook xslt. The
transformation fails because of a reference to a exslt() function:

>> result = stylesheet.apply(xml_doc)

xmlXPathCompOpEval: function node-set not found

Unregistered function

runtime error: file D:///docbook/xsl/xhtml/profile-docbook.xsl line 293
element variable

Failed to evaluate the expression of variable 'profiled-nodes'.

=> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?>

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.or

g/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

Seems to be that exslt() is not working in this Windows binaries version. 

Does someone know more about the issue? 

Thanks in advance

Fabrice
