copy
The copy transfers a shallow copy (the node and any associated namespace node) of the current node to the
output document. It does not copy any children or attributes of the current node.
Syntax
<copy> ::= "copy" ( "use-attribute-sets" <quote> <attribbute name list> <quote> )?
"{"
<block elements>+
"}"
Options
|
use-attribute-sets
|
an optional string containing a whitelist separated list of other sets. |
Elements
One or more block statements.
Examples
For example.
match using "node() | @*" priority "-1" scope "inline-text" {
copy {
apply-templates using "@*"
apply-templates
}
}
compiles to
<template match="node() | @*" mode="inline-text" priority="-1">
<copy>
<apply-templates select="@*"/>
<apply-templates/>
</copy>
</template>
which will apply templates for the attributes and descendants of the current node (similar to copy-of).
Errors
Forgetting the open bracket.
stylesheet {
version "1.0"
match using "node() | @*" priority "-1" scope "inline-text" {
copy
apply-templates using "@*"
apply-templates
}
}
}
gives the error
**** (106) Unexpected symbol "apply-templates" in line 6
Check spelling, did you mean start of block bracket?
**** (136) Unmatched brackets in 1
Too many close brackets?
