Alessandro Seganti commented on JENA-508:
-----------------------------------------
Andy,
I was studying how we can implement the missing functions (format-date/time).
The main problem with these is:
* the convention required in XPath3 is not the same as the one used in the
DatetimeFormatter in java
* the DateTimeFormatter has a lot less options than the one required by Xpath3
thus in my opinion the work involved to fully implement these functions could
be quite big and I am not sure that it is worth :)
Regards,
Alessandro
