Re: [Xmlstar-devel] c14n xpath

[Mikhail G. <mgr...@co...>]

create a file called 'doc1.xpath'

and put the following in there

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<XPath xmlns:n0="http://a.example.com" xmlns:n1="http://b.example">
(//. | //@* | //namespace::*)[ancestor-or-self::n1:elem1]
</XPath>

Your command will be the following

xml c14n --exc-without-comments doc1.xml doc1.xpath

which gives output

<n1:elem1 xmlns:n1="http://b.example">
     content
   </n1:elem1>

Thanks for noticing this as it was totally undocumented.
