• Type: Bug
• Status: Open
• Priority: Major
• Resolution: Unresolved

Description

executing Xalan using the attached files leads to an assertion:

Xalan xml.xml xsl.xsl

Xalan: /builddir/build/BUILD/xalan_c-1.12/src/xalanc/XSLT/Stylesheet.cpp:238: xalanc_1_12::ElemTemplateElement* xalanc_1_12::Stylesheet::initWrapperless(xalanc_1_12::StylesheetConstructionContext&, const xercesc_3_2::Locator*): Assertion `m_firstTemplate == 0' failed.

Of course invalid.html is not an valid style sheet, but IMHO Xalan should not assert but return a (fatal) error.
