xml-dev - Query on XT

[Mallikarjuna Sangappa <malliks@rocketmail.com>]

Hi,

I'm using XT to create a flat file from an XML
Document and XSLT stylesheet. Could anyone explain
the difference between the two implementations in a
XSLT stylesheet. Second implementation was writing to
flat file whereas the first was not. Both of them are
using internally a Java method which is not important
in the query.

First Implementation :

<!-- ASSIGNMENT_TYPE -->

<xsl:param-variable name='varASSIGNMENT_TYPE' expr =
'ASSIGNMENT_TYPE/@ASSIGNMENT_TYPE_VALUE'/>
<xsl:value-of select="varASSIGNMENT_TYPE"/>
    <xsl:choose> 
	   <xsl:when test="varASSIGNMENT_TYPE='Internal'">
		   <xsl:value-of
select="sample:padLeftjWithSpaces(' ', '1')"/>

	   </xsl:when>

	   <xsl:when test="varASSIGNMENT_TYPE='External'">
		   <xsl:value-of
select="sample:padLeftjWithSpaces('E', '1')"/>
           </xsl:when>
   </xsl:choose>


Second Implementation :

  <!-- ASSIGNMENT_TYPE -->
  <xsl:param-variable name='varASSIGNMENT_TYPE' expr
= 'ASSIGNMENT_TYPE/@ASSIGNMENT_TYPE_VALUE'/>
    <xsl:choose> 
	   <xsl:when test="$varASSIGNMENT_TYPE='Internal'">
		   <xsl:value-of
select="sample:padLeftjWithSpaces(' ', '1')"/>

	   </xsl:when>

	   <xsl:when test="$varASSIGNMENT_TYPE='External'">
		   <xsl:value-of
select="sample:padLeftjWithSpaces('E', '1')"/>
           </xsl:when>
   </xsl:choose>

Thanks in advance. 

CU,

Malliks
