Description

The following XSL 3.0 stylesheet, doesn't work with Xalan-J's current implementation on dev repos branch xalan-j_xslt3.0:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:map="http://www.w3.org/2005/xpath-functions/map"
version="3.0"
exclude-result-prefixes="map">

<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/>

<xsl:template match="/">
<map>
<xsl:variable name="map1" select="map

{0 : 'hello', 1 : 'there', 2 : ('yes','no')}

"/>
<xsl:for-each select="map:keys($map1)">
<entry key="

{.}

" value="

{map:get($map1, .)}

"/>
</xsl:for-each>
</map>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

Xalan-J seems to have issues, parsing map entry value ('yes','no').

But as a workaround, the following works though:
<xsl:variable name="seq1" select="('yes','no')"/>
<xsl:variable name="map1" select="map

{0 : 'hello', 1 : 'there', 2 : $seq1}

"/>

(i.e, if the mentioned map entry value is, referred from an XSL variable)
