Re: [Exist-open] library package – load stylesheets into XQuery?

[Jean-Paul R. <re...@gm...>]

Dear Julian,

>Is it even possible to include XSLTs in a library package in a manner that
they can be loaded into XQuery?

I assume by "library package" you mean library module? I do this all the
time without an issue. It's just another XML document.

However I have a doubt about this path:

>doc('./CMIF-base.xsl')

Have you tested this with the full explicit path to the document? e.g.
"/db/apps/myapp/CMIF-base.xsl"

Cheers,
