Hi,
I'm trying to feed a downloaded XML to an XSLT transform via the command line. When I do it like this:
curl -s
http://www.cbr.ru/scripts/XML_daily.asp >rate.xml
xsltproc rate.xslt rate.xml
it works. When I try to pipeline the two together:
curl -s
http://www.cbr.ru/scripts/XML_daily.asp | xsltproc rate.xslt /dev/stdin
I get an error message from xsltproc:
/dev/stdin:1: parser error : Document is empty
^
/dev/stdin:1: parser error : Start tag expected, '<' not found
^
I thought the two commands should be equivalent. Please, what's going on here? Not that I cannot solve the problem - I can, it works with an intermediate file. But there's apparently an aspect of pipelining that I don't yet understand.
