What is the best way to write this code:
<xsl:template name="CamelChain">
<xsl:param name="input"/>
<xsl:param name="position"/>
<xsl:if test="$position <= string-length($input)">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="substring($input, $position, 1) = '_'">
<xsl:value-of select="translate(substring($input, $position + 1, 1), 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz', 'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ')"/>
<xsl:call-template name="CamelChain">
<xsl:with-param name="input" select="$input"/>
<xsl:with-param name="position" select="$position + 2"/>
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:value-of select="substring($input, $position, 1)"/>
<xsl:call-template name="CamelChain">
<xsl:with-param name="input" select="$input"/>
<xsl:with-param name="position" select="$position + 1"/>
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
Great, but I think it can be cleaner. Say right now, I repeat this logic:
<xsl:call-template name="CamelChain">
<xsl:with-param name="input" select="$input"/>
<xsl:with-param name="position" select="$new_position"/>
</xsl:call-template>
So does anyone have any solution?
I really tried it myself @ xslt, is this ok if we do `select =" $ position + $ jump "`? but this method (or hack, as I call it) does not work .. so I'm currently not in my decisions and wondered if anyone could help.
I basically thought along the lines of:
<xsl:template name="CamelChain">
<xsl:param name="input"/>
<xsl:param name="position"/>
<xsl:variable name="jump"/>
<xsl:if test="$position <= string-length($input)">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="substring($input, $position, 1) = '_'">
<xsl:value-of select="translate(substring($input, $position + 1, 1), 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz', 'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ')"/>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:value-of select="substring($input, $position, 1)"/>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
<xsl:call-template name="CamelChain">
<xsl:with-param name="input" select="$input"/>
<xsl:with-param name="position" select="$position + $jump"/>
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
or maybe something completely different or exotic. (XSLT 1.0 without extensions here)
