[Exist-open] namespaces are apparently stripped

[Andrew W. <and...@gm...>]

Hi,

When I run this transform:

<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0"
    xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
    xmlns:a="b"
    xmlns:c="d">

<xsl:template match="/">
	<foo/>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

...using the transform:transform() method with Saxon 9 the output is just:

<foo/>

rather than the expected:

<foo xmlns:a="b" xmlns:c="d">   (which I get when running using the
same version of Saxon outside of eXist)

What's happened to the namespaces?

As a sanity test when the transform is modified to:

    <xsl:template match="/">
        <foo><c:bar/></foo>
    </xsl:template>

I do get the namespace, but as:

<foo>
    <c:bar xmlns:c="d"/>
</foo>

...rather than on the root element.


I'm guessing the output of the transform is correct, but then runs
through some other process?



thanks
