[xquery-talk] xquary update 3.0

[Leo Studer]

hello

I am wondering whats happening with the update facility 3.0.
Is there any support yet?
With Saxon EE 9.5.1.5 in Oxygen and xquery 3.0 enabled, I get errors with updates.

Thanks in advance
Leo

Hi Leo,

The XQUF 3.0 specification needs to address a few issues to be adapted
for new XQuery 3.0 constructs (e.g., expression categories w.r.t. the
introduction of dynamic function invocations). If I am correct, a
newer version addressing at least the issue mentioned above may be on
its way (but I don't know about any timelines).

Mike will probably tell you better than me the status of Saxon with
respect to XQUF 3.0.

As for the Zorba engine, it should not throw errors in 3.0 for simple
update usage. Expect it to be a bit bumpy for dynamic function
invocations with updating functions though :-)

What queries did you try to run?

I hope it helps.

Kind regards,
Ghislain

Saxon 9.5 didn't allow you to use XQuery 3.0 and XQuery Update in the same query.

We've fixed that in Saxon 9.6.
