I have the following XML file.
<Record
Name="My_Record"
<Fields
StartingBit="0"
Size="3"
Name="Field_1">
</Fields>
<Fields
StartingBit="1"
Size="5"
Name="Field_2">
</Fields>
<Fields
StartingBit="2"
Size="8"
Name="Field_3">
</Fields>
<Fields
StartingBit="3"
Size="4"
Name="Field_4"
</Fields>
</Record>
And I would like to use XSLT to properly update the @StartingBit attribute from the previous node's @StartingBit + @Size - this will be the current node's @StartingBit value. The resulting XML should be as follows:
<Record
Name="My_Record"
<Fields
StartingBit="0"
Size="3"
Name="Field_1">
</Fields>
<Fields
StartingBit="3"
Size="5"
Name="Field_2">
</Fields>
<Fields
StartingBit="8"
Size="8"
Name="Field_3">
</Fields>
<Fields
StartingBit="16"
Size="4"
Name="Field_4"
</Fields>
</Record>
So far, my latest attempts to my XSLT is as follows:
<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 ="Fields/@StartingBit">
<xsl:value-of select ="(preceding-sibling::Fields[1]/@StartingBit + preceding-sibling::Fields[1]/@Size)"/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
The above transform does not generate what I would like - basically @StartingBit does not change. I am not proficicent in node navigation to get the results I like - can someone assist in my transform? Thank you in advance.
