<h1 align="center">The EXSLT C library for Gnome</h1>
<h1 style="text-align: center">libexslt</h1>
<p>Libexslt is the <a href="http://www.exslt.org">EXSLT</a> C library
developed for libxslt (a part of the Gnome project). Much of the
initial work on the library was done by Thomas Broyer. EXSLT itself
is a community initiative to provide extensions to XSLT.
<p>This library is free software and can be reused in commercial applications
(see the <a href="intro.html">intro</a>)</p>
<p></p>
<p>Logo designed by <a href="mailto:liyanage@access.ch">Marc Liyanage</a>.</p>
<h2><a name="Introducti">Introduction</a></h2>
<p>This document describes <a href="http://xmlsoft.org/XSLT/">libxslt</a>,
the <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt">XSLT</a> C library developed for the
<a href="http://www.gnome.org/">Gnome</a> project.</p>
<p>Here are some key points about libxslt:</p>
<ul>
<li>Libxslt is a C implementation</li>
<li>Libxslt is based on libxml for XML parsing, tree manipulation and XPath
support</li>
<li>It is written in plain C, making as few assumptions as possible, and
sticking closely to ANSI C/POSIX for easy embedding. Should works on
Linux/Unix/Windows.</li>
<li>This library is released under the <a
href="http://www.opensource.org/licenses/mit-license.html">MIT
Licence</a></li>
<li>Though not designed primarily with performances in mind, libxslt seems
to be a relatively fast processor.</li>
</ul>
<h2><a name="Documentat">Documentation</a></h2>
<p>There are some on-line resources about using libxslt:</p>
<ol>
<li>Check the <a href="html/libxslt-lib.html#LIBXSLT-LIB">API
documentation</a> automatically extracted from code comments (using
the program apibuild.py, developed for libxml, together with the
xsl script 'newapi.xsl' and the libxslt xsltproc program).</li>
<li>Look at the <a href="http://mail.gnome.org/archives/xslt/">mailing-list
archive</a>.</li>
<li>Of course since libxslt is based on libxml, it's a good idea to at
least read <a href="http://xmlsoft.org/">libxml description</a></li>
</ol>
<h2><a name="Reporting">Reporting bugs and getting help</a></h2>
<p>Well, bugs or missing features are always possible, and I will make a
point of fixing them in a timely fashion. The best way to report a bug is to
use the <a href="http://bugzilla.gnome.org/buglist.cgi?product=libxslt">Gnome
bug tracking database</a> (make sure to use the "libxslt" module name). I
look at reports there regularly and it's good to have a reminder when a bug
is still open. Be sure to specify that the bug is for the package libxslt.</p>
<p>For small problems you can try to get help on IRC, the #xml channel on
irc.gnome.org (port 6667) usually have a few person subscribed which may help
(but there is no guarantee and if a real issue is raised it should go on the
mailing-list for archival).</p>
<p>There is also a mailing-list <a
href="mailto:xslt@gnome.org">xslt@gnome.org</a> for libxslt, with an <a
href="http://mail.gnome.org/archives/xslt/">on-line archive</a>. To subscribe
to this list, please visit the <a
href="http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/xslt">associated Web</a> page
and follow the instructions.</p>
<p>Alternatively, you can just send the bug to the <a
href="mailto:xslt@gnome.org">xslt@gnome.org</a> list, if it's really libxslt
related I will approve it.. Please do not send me mail directly especially
for portability problem, it makes things really harder to track and in some
cases I'm not the best person to answer a given question, ask the list
instead. <strong>Do not send code, I won't debug it</strong> (but patches are
really appreciated!).</p>
<p>Check the following too <span style="color: #E50000">before
posting</span>:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="search.php">use the search engine</a> to get informations
related to your problem.</li>
<li>make sure you are <a href="ftp://xmlsoft.org/">using a recent
version</a>, and that the problem still shows up in those</li>
<li>check the <a href="http://mail.gnome.org/archives/xslt/">list
archives</a> to see if the problem was reported already, in this case
there is probably a fix available, similarly check the <a
href="http://bugzilla.gnome.org/buglist.cgi?product=libxslt">registered
open bugs</a></li>
<li>make sure you can reproduce the bug with xsltproc, a very useful thing
to do is run the transformation with -v argument and redirect the
standard error to a file, then search in this file for the transformation
logs just preceding the possible problem</li>
<li>Please send the command showing the error as well as the input and
stylesheet (as an attachment)</li>
</ul>
<p>Then send the bug with associated informations to reproduce it to the <a
href="mailto:xslt@gnome.org">xslt@gnome.org</a> list; if it's really libxslt
related I will approve it. Please do not send mail to me directly, it makes
things really hard to track and in some cases I am not the best person to
answer a given question, ask on the list.</p>
<p>To <span style="color: #E50000">be really clear about support</span>:</p>
<ul>
<li>Support or help <span style="color: #E50000">request MUST be sent to
the list or on bugzilla</span> in case of problems, so that the Question
and Answers can be shared publicly. Failing to do so carries the implicit
message "I want free support but I don't want to share the benefits with
others" and is not welcome. I will automatically Carbon-Copy the
xslt@gnome.org mailing list for any technical reply made about libxml2 or
libxslt.</li>
<li>There is <span style="color: #E50000">no garantee for support</span>,
if your question remains unanswered after a week, repost it, making sure
you gave all the detail needed and the informations requested.</li>
<li>Failing to provide informations as requested or double checking first
for prior feedback also carries the implicit message "the time of the
library maintainers is less valuable than my time" and might not be
welcome.</li>
</ul>
<p>Of course, bugs reports with a suggested patch for fixing them will
probably be processed faster.</p>
<p>If you're looking for help, a quick look at <a
href="http://mail.gnome.org/archives/xslt/">the list archive</a> may actually
provide the answer, I usually send source samples when answering libxslt
usage questions. The <a
href="html/libxslt-lib.html#LIBXSLT-LIB">auto-generated documentation</a> is
not as polished as I would like (I need to learn more about Docbook), but
it's a good starting point.</p>
<h2><a name="help">How to help</a></h2>
<p>You can help the project in various ways, the best thing to do first is to
subscribe to the mailing-list as explained before, check the <a
href="http://mail.gnome.org/archives/xslt/">archives </a>and the <a
href="http://bugzilla.gnome.org/buglist.cgi?product=libxslt">Gnome bug
database:</a>:</p>
<ol>
<li>provide patches when you find problems</li>
<li>provide the diffs when you port libxslt to a new platform. They may not
be integrated in all cases but help pinpointing portability problems
and</li>
<li>provide documentation fixes (either as patches to the code comments or
as HTML diffs).</li>
<li>provide new documentations pieces (translations, examples, etc ...)</li>
<li>Check the TODO file and try to close one of the items</li>
<li>take one of the points raised in the archive or the bug database and
provide a fix. <a href="mailto:daniel@veillard.com">Get in touch with me
</a>before to avoid synchronization problems and check that the suggested
fix will fit in nicely :-)</li>
</ol>
