Yves, Soroush, Felix, all
Are the rules working now? Was it an easy syntax fix attributable to a typo or export error, but no actual ambiguity as to where on the XLIFF tree the rules apply?
Please let us know, it seems to me that the cs01 fate hinges on the answers to the above questions..
Cheers

I get some null pointer now, but that may be a bug in our ITS engine implementation.
Somehow the selector return null. I’ll have to go debug that…

Dear Yves,
I believe it was supposed to be
//xlf:file//xlf:source…
//xlf:file[not(@appliesTo)]//xlf:target...
to select all sources and targets of a file respectively.

Did you really mean “//:” by “/”? (seems to get errors too)
Or “//::” by “/” (seems to be pass, syntactically).
Thanks

Hi Yves, all,
you are right, this is not the correct syntax, probably due to export from Oxygen editor? Anyway replacing //: by / should help.

Hi all,
Are we sure the ITS rules in its.sch (especially the locNoteRule ones) are correct?
I’m getting syntax errors like “A location step was expected following the '/' or '//' token.” When trying to process them.
I’m certainly no XPath expert, but the “//::” parts look odd.
For example a rule like:
//xlf:file//::xlf:source[ancestor::xlf:file[not(@appliesTo)]/xlf:notes/xlf:note[@priority=1]] | //xlf:file[not(@appliesTo)]//::xlf:target[ancestor::xlf:file[not(@appliesTo)]/xlf:notes/xlf:note[@priority=1]]
Does not pass any online XPath evaluators/validators I’ve tried.
Thoughts?
