Kamesh,

It's best to ask on the M2T newsgroup, so I've added that to the "to"
list of the reply.

Depends on the context.

If the attribute expects an XPath expression you can enter it directly
like that:

<c:iterate select="//Dog" ..> // select all dogs.

If you'd like to set an attribute to be the _value_ of an XPath
Expression, you have to put it in curly braces, just like in XSLT.

Look at this example:

<java:class name="{className($_enum/@__qname)}"
package="{packageName($_enum/@__qname)}"
srcFolder="{$genpath}"
template="templates/enumeration.jet"/>

the name, package and srcFolder attributes are all Xpath expressions.

It works the same way in the file tag.
