Xalan v. Saxon and Xquery
Hi All,
Does Xalan support Xquery in any form?
I have found that Saxon does but I have a problem with running XQuery Update Facility - does anybody has a useful link to learn more about installation/upgrade?
Thanks in advance
M.

Xalan has no support for XQuery (or XPath 2.0, or XSLT 2.0).
To find an open-source XQuery processor that supports the draft XQuery update specification, I suggest you ask on the xquery list (talk at x-query.com). Check the archives first, I believe the question has been asked recently.

multiple invocations of XQueryExpression?
Hi,
I need to call XQueryExpression recursively with results (or sub-results) being evaluated in the loop. However, I want to work with built NodeInfo (or Item objects), rather then strings. (e.g. build dom document once, then perform xquery analysis and then use results for subsequence xquery analyses). Apparently, the XQueryExpression does not work on the second level of the tree, when I submit the dom element rather than document. It looks like it finds root of the document and searches through the whole tree. Is there any way to make XQueryExpression to only look through specified element (or make element root) of the process expression?
Thanks
Ed

You might want to look for a forum dedicated to that XQuery API you use. This forum is about XSLT and not about XQuery.

Asking a new question in the form of a reply to a question raised two years ago is incredibly unhelpful. Does your question have anything to do with Xalan, which is named in the subject heading? I suspect not. Also, your question is about XQuery, which is off topic for this forum. I suggest you ask it again on the saxon-help list at SourceForge. You will have to be much clearer about what you are trying to do - it's not at all clear what your problem is.
