## Description

### Macro: XSLT_REGISTER_VARIABLE_LOOKUP

    #define XSLT_REGISTER_VARIABLE_LOOKUP

Registering macro, not general purpose at all but used in different modules.

### Macro: XSLT_RVT_FUNC_RESULT

    #define XSLT_RVT_FUNC_RESULT

RVT is part of results returned with func:result. The RVT won't be destroyed after exiting a template and will be reset to XSLT_RVT_LOCAL or XSLT_RVT_VARIABLE in the template that receives the return value.

### Macro: XSLT_RVT_GLOBAL

    #define XSLT_RVT_GLOBAL

RVT is part of a global variable.

### Macro: XSLT_RVT_LOCAL

    #define XSLT_RVT_LOCAL

RVT is destroyed after the current instructions ends.

### Function: xsltAddStackElemList

    int	xsltAddStackElemList		(xsltTransformContextPtr ctxt,
    					 xsltStackElemPtr elems)

Push an element list onto the stack.

`ctxt`: | xn XSLT transformation context
`elems`: | a stack element list
`Returns`: | 0 in case of success, -1 in case of failure.

### Function: xsltEvalGlobalVariables

    int	xsltEvalGlobalVariables		(xsltTransformContextPtr ctxt)

Evaluates all global variables and parameters of a stylesheet. For internal use only. This is called at start of a transformation.

`ctxt`: | the XSLT transformation context
`Returns`: | 0 in case of success, -1 in case of error

### Function: xsltEvalOneUserParam

    int	xsltEvalOneUserParam		(xsltTransformContextPtr ctxt,
    					 const xmlChar * name,
    					 const xmlChar * value)

This is normally called from xsltEvalUserParams to process a single parameter from a list of parameters. The @value is evaluated as an XPath expression and the result is stored in the context's global variable/parameter hash table. To have a parameter treated literally (not as an XPath expression) use xsltQuoteUserParams (or xsltQuoteOneUserParam). For more details see description of xsltProcessOneUserParamInternal.

`ctxt`: | the XSLT transformation context
`name`: | a null terminated string giving the name of the parameter
`value`: | a null terminated string giving the XPath expression to be evaluated
`Returns`: | 0 in case of success, -1 in case of error.

### Function: xsltEvalUserParams

    int	xsltEvalUserParams		(xsltTransformContextPtr ctxt,
    					 const char ** params)

Evaluate the global variables of a stylesheet. This needs to be done on parsed stylesheets before starting to apply transformations. Each of the parameters is evaluated as an XPath expression and stored in the global variables/parameter hash table. If you want your parameter used literally, use xsltQuoteUserParams.

`ctxt`: | the XSLT transformation context
`params`: | a NULL terminated array of parameters name/value tuples
`Returns`: | 0 in case of success, -1 in case of error

### Function: xsltFreeGlobalVariables

    void	xsltFreeGlobalVariables		(xsltTransformContextPtr ctxt)

Free up the data associated to the global variables its value.

`ctxt`: | the XSLT transformation context

### Function: xsltParseGlobalParam

    void	xsltParseGlobalParam		(xsltStylesheetPtr style,
    					 xmlNodePtr cur)

parse an XSLT transformation param declaration and record its value.

`style`: | the XSLT stylesheet
`cur`: | the "param" element

### Function: xsltParseGlobalVariable

    void	xsltParseGlobalVariable		(xsltStylesheetPtr style,
    					 xmlNodePtr cur)

Parses a global XSLT 'variable' declaration at compilation time and registers it

`style`: | the XSLT stylesheet
`cur`: | the "variable" element

### Function: xsltParseStylesheetCallerParam

    xsltStackElemPtr	xsltParseStylesheetCallerParam	(xsltTransformContextPtr ctxt,
    							 xmlNodePtr inst)

Processes an xsl:with-param instruction at transformation time. The value is compute, but not recorded. NOTE that this is also called with an *xsl:param* element from exsltFuncFunctionFunction().

`ctxt`: | the XSLT transformation context
`inst`: | the xsl:with-param instruction element
`Returns`: | the new xsltStackElemPtr or NULL

### Function: xsltParseStylesheetParam

    void	xsltParseStylesheetParam	(xsltTransformContextPtr ctxt,
    					 xmlNodePtr cur)

Registers a local XSLT 'param' declaration at transformation time and evaluates its value.

`ctxt`: | the XSLT transformation context
`cur`: | the XSLT 'param' element

### Function: xsltParseStylesheetVariable

    void	xsltParseStylesheetVariable	(xsltTransformContextPtr ctxt,
    					 xmlNodePtr inst)

Registers a local XSLT 'variable' instruction at transformation time and evaluates its value.

`ctxt`: | the XSLT transformation context
`inst`: | the xsl:variable instruction element

### Function: xsltQuoteOneUserParam

    int	xsltQuoteOneUserParam		(xsltTransformContextPtr ctxt,
    					 const xmlChar * name,
    					 const xmlChar * value)

This is normally called from xsltQuoteUserParams to process a single parameter from a list of parameters. The @value is stored in the context's global variable/parameter hash table.

`ctxt`: | the XSLT transformation context
`name`: | a null terminated string giving the name of the parameter
`value`: | a null terminated string giving the parameter value
`Returns`: | 0 in case of success, -1 in case of error.

### Function: xsltQuoteUserParams

    int	xsltQuoteUserParams		(xsltTransformContextPtr ctxt,
    					 const char ** params)

Similar to xsltEvalUserParams, but the values are treated literally and are * *not* evaluated as XPath expressions. This should be done on parsed stylesheets before starting to apply transformations.

`ctxt`: | the XSLT transformation context
`params`: | a NULL terminated arry of parameters names/values tuples
`Returns`: | 0 in case of success, -1 in case of error.

### Function: xsltVariableLookup

    xmlXPathObjectPtr	xsltVariableLookup	(xsltTransformContextPtr ctxt,
    						 const xmlChar * name,
    						 const xmlChar * ns_uri)

Search in the Variable array of the context for the given variable value.

`ctxt`: | the XSLT transformation context
`name`: | the variable name
`ns_uri`: | the variable namespace URI
`Returns`: | the value or NULL if not found

### Function: xsltXPathVariableLookup

    xmlXPathObjectPtr	xsltXPathVariableLookup	(void * ctxt,
    						 const xmlChar * name,
    						 const xmlChar * ns_uri)

This is the entry point when a varibale is needed by the XPath interpretor.

`ctxt`: | a void * but the the XSLT transformation context actually
`name`: | the variable name
`ns_uri`: | the variable namespace URI
`Returns`: | the value or NULL if not found
