how to convert xslt version 2.0 to version 1.0

Question

i am using xslt document which uses xpath version 2 functions. I only have xalan 2.6 jar which has xslt 1.0 processor, its a constraint i cannot change it..please help me if there are any tools that convert xpath 2.0 functions to 1.0

<xsl:variable name="var1_ClinicalDocument" as="node()?" select="ns0:ClinicalDocument"/>
        <DSMessage>
            <DSPatient>
                <xsl:for-each 

    select="$var1_ClinicalDocument[fn:exists(ns0:id/@root)]">
                        <Source>
                            <xsl:sequence select="fn:string(ns0:id/@root)"/>
                        </Source>
                    </xsl:for-each>
                    <Demographics>
                        <xsl:for-each select="($var1_ClinicalDocument/ns0:recordTarget/ns0:patientRole/ns0:id)[fn:exists(@extension)]">
                            <externalID>
                                <xsl:sequence select="fn:string(@extension)"/>
                            </externalID>
                        </xsl:for-each>
                        <xsl:for-each select="($var1_ClinicalDocument/ns0:recordTarget/ns0:patientRole/ns0:patient/ns0:name/ns0:given/node())[fn:boolean(self::text())]">

Here is a mapping of the XPath 2.0 functions in question:

XPath 2.0     XPath 1.0                     Xalan-Java     XSLT-C
fn:exists()   string-length(concat(., ) )   XPath 1.0      XPath 1.0
fn:string()   string()                      XPath 1.0      XPath 1.0
fn:boolean()  boolean()                     XPath 1.0      XPath 1.0

EXSLT, XSLTSL, FXSL, and XPath algorithms can fill in most of the remaining functionality.

I will try, but this is untested:

<xsl:variable name="var1_ClinicalDocument" select="ns0:ClinicalDocument"/>
        <DSMessage>
            <DSPatient>
                <xsl:for-each 

    select="$var1_ClinicalDocument[ns0:id/@root]">
                        <Source>
                            <xsl:value-of select="ns0:id/@root"/>
                        </Source>
                    </xsl:for-each>
                    <Demographics>
                        <xsl:for-each select="($var1_ClinicalDocument/ns0:recordTarget/ns0:patientRole/ns0:id)[@extension]">
                            <externalID>
                                <xsl:value-of select="@extension"/>
                            </externalID>
                        </xsl:for-each>
                        <xsl:for-each select="($var1_ClinicalDocument/ns0:recordTarget/ns0:patientRole/ns0:patient/ns0:name/ns0:given/node())[self::text()]">
                            <firstName>
                                <xsl:value-of select="."/>
                            </firstName>

Basically the use of fn:exists, fn:string and fn:boolean can be replaced, of course if there is use of XPath/XSLT 2.0 stuff like tokenize or for-each-group you need more work and maybe Xalan specific extension functions.

This should be a not-bad translation:

    <xsl:variable name="var1_ClinicalDocument" select="ns0:ClinicalDocument"/>
    <DSMessage>
      <DSPatient>
        <xsl:for-each select="$var1_ClinicalDocument[ns0:id/@root]">
          <Source>
            <xsl:value-of select="ns0:id/@root"/>
          </Source>
        </xsl:for-each>
        <Demographics>
          <xsl:for-each select=
            "($var1_ClinicalDocument/ns0:recordTarget
                     /ns0:patientRole/ns0:id)[@extension]">
            <externalID>
             <xsl:value-of select="concat(@extension, ' ')"/>
            </externalID>
          </xsl:for-each>
          <xsl:for-each select=
           "$var1_ClinicalDocument/ns0:recordTarget/ns0:patientRole
                                  /ns0:patient/ns0:name/ns0:given/text()">
            <firstName>
              <xsl:value-of select="."/>
            </firstName>
          </xsl:for-each>
        </Demographics>
       </DSPatient>
    </DSMessage>
