Generate documentation from templates

I know this is an old post, but hopefully this may help someone

 

When I wanted to do something like that I do this.  Create a template that formats the annotation (note the condition as to whether to render the annotation or not)

 

<xsl:template name="hcannotate">
 <xsl:param name="annotation.type"/>
 <xsl:param name="VARannotationText"/>
 <xsl:if test="/forrendering/alltemplates/stylesmode/text() = 'true'">
  <fo:block-container position="absolute" text-align="right" z-index="10" left="30mm" width="90%" height="auto">
   <fo:block color="red" font="8pt"><xsl:value-of select="$annotation.type"/>:<xsl:value-of select="$VARannotationText"/></fo:block>
  </fo:block-container>
 </xsl:if>

 

Then call it like this

 

              <xsl:call-template name="hcannotate">
               <xsl:with-param name="annotation.type" select="'style'"/>
               <xsl:with-param name="VARannotationText" select="'bodytext3'"/>
              </xsl:call-template>
</xsl:template>

 

So if I set /forrendering/alltemplates/stylesmode/text() to true I get lots of red text in my PDF, if I set it to false nothing appears.

 

It worked pretty well
