   RE: [xml-dev] Query Format in XML

[ Lists Home | Date Index | Thread Index ]

Hi Jim:

The way the request was put to me, it was a general query that was not
particularly targeted to XML documents.  I appreciate the reply.

Claude,

I suspect that you are already aware of XQueryX, one of the
specifications 
published as part of the XQuery/XPath suite of documents.  XQueryX is an

XML syntax for XQuery, making it generatable and manipulatable like XSLT

is.  In fairness, I must point out that XQueryX is an XML syntax that 
closely echoes the BNF parse tree for XQuery.

Is this the sort of thing you wanted to find?

I suspect that some future version of XQueryX will include an XML syntax

that is more closely related to the semantic concepts of XQuery instead
of 
merely the syntactic ones.

Hope this helps,
    Jim
