Hello,

I'd like to run a transform on multiple documents using a cached transformer, accumulating any errors that occur.

 

This minimal example -

for $doc in (<a/>,<b/>, <c/>)
return
try{
xslt:transform(
  $doc,
  <xsl:transform xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version='2.0'>
    <xsl:template match='/'><xsl:sequence select='error()'/></xsl:template>
  </xsl:transform>,
  map{},
  map{'cache':'true'}
)
}
catch * {$err:description}

- results in:

Error in xsl:sequence/@select on line 1 column 135 of [...]:
  FOER0000: Error signalled by application call on error()Improper use? Potentia

The exception does not occur if 'cache' is set to 'false'.

Relatedly, if I amend the query to this:

for $doc in (<a/>,<b/>,<c/>)
return
try{
xslt:transform(
  $doc,
  <xsl:transform xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
  xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" version='2.0'>
    <xsl:template match='/'>

      <xsl:sequence select='if(a) then error(xs:QName("err"), "oops") else .'/>

    </xsl:template>
  </xsl:transform>,
  map{},
  map{'cache':'true'}
)
}
catch * {<err>{$err:description}</err>}

the error message is passed through for the first item in the sequence (<a/>), but is lost,  resulting in <err/> when adjusted to error on subsequent items (<b/> or <c/>).

Again, this works as expected if the transformer is not cached.

Thanks and regards,

Andrew
