Re: Newbie: Generating a class dictionary from a class diagram?

I can't help you with the reference issues. I tried to look at it 
yesterday but I have no clue how to solve this in xslt. I hope you get 
some input from the dev list.

You should also add a
<xsl:output method="text"/>
element to your stylesheet. Just before the first <xsl:key element will 
be find. That will remove any XML or HTML output that is not directly in 
your code.

Good luck.
