[wtp-incubator-dev] Re: Debugging XSL Global Variables and Parms

[David Carver <d_a_carver@xxxxxxxxx>]

This looks like a specific issues with Xalan.  It starts debugging at 
the first Template automatically, where as Saxon will start with the 
Global Variables and Parameters.   Xalan also does lazy initialization 
of the variables and only initializes once they are first used.
