XSLT extension object returning a node set

[Martin]

Hi,

I want to write an XSLT extension object that returns a node set.
I intend to use the extension object in a select attribute of a for-each xsl
element.
eg. <xsl:for-each select="myobj:mynodes()">.... </xsl:for-each>

I am currently returning XmlNodeList from my extension object method, but
this method is not being called. Instead I get the exception "The
expression passed to this method should result in a NodeSet"

Any ideas much appreciated.
Thanks
Martin

Looks like I need XPathNodeIterator

Do have a look at the source code of EXSLT.NET

In case you don't like the fact that this uses reflection, a more general
idea and its implementation is described here:

http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2003/08/06/exslt.html

Although the implementation is for MSXML4, at the time I did implement the
same for .NET.
