Hi all,
Is it possible to use java.lang.String for formatting Strings in the
printed text.
Thanks a lot,
Guadalupe

I don't understand. Can you provide more details of what you are thinking?

Yes,
The exactly example is I am exporting UML models designed with RSA to xml.
And when I read attribute types href I obtain
" pathmap://UML_LIBRARIES/UMLPrimitiveTypes.library.uml#String"
and I only want to show the text "String" in my generated code (which I
could easily obtain using java String function just asking for the
subString after #)

Thanks a lot for your help,
Guadalupe

you can use the xpath string functions.

<c:get select="string-func(context)"/>

More specifically, JET implements all these standard XPath string
functions:

http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath#section-String-Functions

Plus, there are a number of other functions implemented, too:

In your case, I think substring-after($foo/@href, '#') would do.
