The XSLT C library for Gnome

1. passing parameters on the xsltproc command line doesn't work

   xsltproc --param test alpha foo.xsl foo.xml

   the param does not get passed and ends up as ""

   In a nutshell do a double escaping at the shell prompt:

   xsltproc --param test "'alpha'" foo.xsl foo.xml

   i.e. the string value is surrounded by " and ' then terminated by ' and ". Libxslt interpret the parameter values as XPath expressions, so the string ->alpha<- is intepreted as the node set matching this string. You really want ->'alpha'<- to be passed to the processor. And to allow this you need to escape the quotes at the shell level using ->"'alpha'"<- .

   or use

   xsltproc --stringparam test alpha foo.xsl foo.xml

2. Is there C++ bindings ?

   Yes for example xmlwrapp , see the related pages about bindings
