IC74525: SETTING A DEFAULT VALUE WHEN AN XSLT RELATIONSHIP LOOKUP DOES NOT MATCH

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When an XSLT relationship lookup is performed with a value not
  found in
  the lookup table the resulting output of the XSLT primitive will
  contain
  a string of letters/numbers instead of a representation of the
  null
  value returned. This iFix will allow a default value to be set
  in this
  case instead

  * USERS AFFECTED: Users of Websphere Enterprise Service Bus    *
  *                 or Process Server version 7 who use the      *
  *                 XSLT primitive may encounter this issue.     *

  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When an XSLT relationship lookup is     *
  *                      performed with a value not found in     *
  *                      the lookup table the resulting output   *

  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION: If a random string is seen after an XSLT     *
  *                 lookup is performed, where there should be   *
  *                 a null value, apply this APAR to allow a     *
  *                 default value instead.                       *
  ****************************************************************
  When an XSLT relationship lookup does not match, random
  letters and numbers are output instead of a default value.
  

Problem conclusion

• The code has been modified such that a default value will now
  appear where the incorrect string was.
