A Small Fix for RSSToolkit 2.0.0.0

What's broken?  It would appear that there are a couple of problems with consuming Atom feeds using the RSSToolkit.

  1. <pubDate/> shows up empty
  2. <link/> use the the base URL for the channel instead of the URL for each <item/>

I opened up a work item for these issues, and here's what fixed it for me:

  • Download the Source.
  • Open the Resources\AtomToRSS20.xsl file and make the following changes:
    • LINE 25: <xsl:value-of select="//*[name()='modified']"/> should be <xsl:value-of select="//*[name()='updated']"/>
    • LINE 43: <xsl:value-of select="//*[name()='link']/@href"/> should be <xsl:value-of select="child::*[name()='link']/@href"/>
    • LINE 55: <xsl:value-of select="//*[name()='modified']"/> should be ><xsl:value-of select="child::*[name()='updated']"/> *updated 2/1/2008
    • Recompile the .DLL file. Or, I uploaded my recompiled version with the work item.
