<em>passing parameters on the xsltproc command line doesn't work</em>
    <p><em>xsltproc --param test alpha foo.xsl foo.xml</em></p>
    <p><em>the param does not get passed and ends up as &quot;&quot;</em></p>
    <p>In a nutshell do a double escaping at the shell prompt:</p>
    <p>xsltproc --param test &quot;'alpha'&quot; foo.xsl foo.xml</p>
    <p>i.e. the string value is surrounded by &quot; and ' then terminated by '
    and &quot;. Libxslt interpret the parameter values as XPath expressions, so
    the string -&gt;<code>alpha</code>&lt;- is intepreted as the node set
    matching this string. You really want -&gt;<code>'alpha'</code>&lt;- to
    be passed to the processor. And to allow this you need to escape the
    quotes at the shell level using -&gt;<code>&quot;'alpha'&quot;</code>&lt;- .</p>
    <p>or use</p>
    <p>xsltproc --stringparam test alpha foo.xsl foo.xml</p>

<em>Is there C++ bindings ?</em>
    <p>Yes for example <a href="http://pmade.org/pjones/software/xmlwrapp/">xmlwrapp</a> , see <a href="python.html">the related pages about bindings</a>
