Use XSLT to enumerate Nodes with the same name

I have many many XML files that often contain nodes mutiple times (each time with different data). Example:

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>  
    <SomeName>  
      <Node>
        DataA
     </Node>  
     <Node>
        DataB
     </Node>  
      <Node>
        DataC
     </Node>  
      <AnotherNode>
        DataD
     </AnotherNode>
      <AnotherNode>
        DataE
     </AnotherNode>
      <AnotherNode>
        DataF
     </AnotherNode>
     <SingleNode>
        DataG
     </SingleNode>
   </SomeName>  

The desired Output would be:

  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>  
    <SomeName>  
      <Node1>
        DataA
     </Node1>  
     <Node2>
        DataB
     </Node2>  
      <Node3>
        DataC
     </Node3>  
      <AnotherNode1>
        DataD
     </AnotherNode1>
      <AnotherNode2>
        DataE
     </AnotherNode2>
      <AnotherNode3>
        DataF
     </AnotherNode3>
     <SingleNode>
        DataG
     </SingleNode>
   </Some开发者_JAVA技巧Name>  

The Problem is, I don't have a list of all the duplicate Nodenames, so I need the XSLT to run through all nodes and only number those that exist multiple times. Is that possible?

Does anyone have a good idea on how to accomplish that?

Thanks!

You can use count(preceding-sibling::*[name(.) = name(current())]) to get the number of preceding sibling elements with the same name as the context element, and <xsl:element name="concat(name(.),'n')" /> to create an element of the same name as the context element, with the letter 'n' appended to it. Combining these facts should allow you to achieve the effect you desire.

Here is a complete solution. It is recommended to use the Muenchian method for grouping and not grouping based on count(preceding::*[someCondition]), which is grossly inefficient -- O(N^2).

This transformation:

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
 xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
 <xsl:output omit-xml-declaration="yes" indent="yes"/>

 <xsl:key name="kElsByName"
  match="/*/*" use="name()"/>

 <xsl:template match="/*">
   <SomeName>
     <xsl:for-each select=
      "*[generate-id()
        =
         generate-id(key('kElsByName', name())[1])
        ]
      ">

        <xsl:variable name="vsameNamedNodes" select=
         "key('kElsByName', name())"/>

        <xsl:variable name="vNumSameNamedNodes" select=
         "count($vsameNamedNodes)"/>

        <xsl:for-each select="$vsameNamedNodes">

         <xsl:element name="{concat(name(),
                             substring(position(),
                                       1 div ($vNumSameNamedNodes > 1)
                                       )
                                    )
                             }">
           <xsl:copy-of select="node()"/>
         </xsl:element>
       </xsl:for-each>
     </xsl:for-each>
   </SomeName>
 </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

when applied on the provided XML document:

    <SomeName>
      <Node>
        DataA
     </Node>
     <Node>
        DataB
     </Node>
      <Node>
        DataC
     </Node>
      <AnotherNode>
        DataD
     </AnotherNode>
      <AnotherNode>
        DataE
     </AnotherNode>
      <AnotherNode>
        DataF
     </AnotherNode>
     <SingleNode>
        DataG
     </SingleNode>
   </SomeName>

produces the wanted result:

<SomeName>
    <Node1>
        DataA
    </Node1>
    <Node2>
        DataB
    </Node2>
    <Node3>
        DataC
    </Node3>
    <AnotherNode1>
        DataD
    </AnotherNode1>
    <AnotherNode2>
        DataE
    </AnotherNode2>
    <AnotherNode3>
        DataF
    </AnotherNode3>
    <SingleNode>
        DataG
    </SingleNode>
</SomeName>
