CopyEvolve supports XSL 2.0?

Question

I want to know if the copyEvolve supports XSL version 2.0? The example I seen so far only support version 1.0.
Thanks.

Answer 1

There's no support of XSLT 2.0 in Oracle XMLDB at least until version 11.1.0.6
I got three simple xslt documents:
Test10.xsl
<xsl:transform xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0">
<xsl:template match="/">
<output>
  <xsl:value-of select="./A/text()"/>
</output>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:transform>Test12.xsl
<xsl:transform xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="2.0">
<xsl:template match="/">
<output>
  <xsl:value-of select="./A/text()"/>
</output>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:transform>Test20.xsl
<xsl:transform
  xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
  xmlns:str="http://user.com/namespace"
  version="2.0"
  exclude-result-prefixes="str">
<xsl:function name="str:reverse">
  <xsl:param name="sentence"/>
  <xsl:result
     select="if (contains($sentence, ' '))
             then concat(str:reverse(substring-after($sentence, ' ')),
                         substring-before($sentence, ' '))
             else $sentence"/>            
</xsl:function>
<xsl:template match="/">
<output>
  <xsl:value-of select="str:reverse('DOG BITES MAN')"/>
</output>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:transform>Then I loaded them into XMLDB:
SQL> select banner from v$version;

  7           nls_charset_id('AL32UTF8'));
  8  END;

SQL> select xmltransform(xmltype('<A>xxx</A>'),
  2                      DBMS_XDB.GETCONTENTXMLTYPE('/test10.xsl')
  3                     ) test
  4  from dual;
TEST
<output>xxx</output>
SQL> select xmltransform(xmltype('<A>xxx</A>'),
  2                      DBMS_XDB.GETCONTENTXMLTYPE('/test12.xsl')
  3                     ) test
  4  from dual;
TEST
<output>xxx</output>
SQL> select xmltransform(xmltype('<A>xxx</A>'),
  2                      DBMS_XDB.GETCONTENTXMLTYPE('/test20.xsl')
  3                     ) test
  4  from dual;
ERROR:
ORA-31011: Analisi XML non riuscita
ORA-19202: Errore durante l'elaborazione XML
LPX-00602: Invalid child element 'function' of element 'transform'.Hence:
1) Using an xslt document tagged version="2.0" but containing only 1.0 elements works
2) Using an xslt 2.0 new feature (user defined functions) doesn't work
3) I didn't make a specific test on copyEvolve, but a generic test on XSLT processor
4) Version 11.1.0.6
