Yes, just added some XPath 2 queries to our application and it works with the new jar.
Well done - that is really useful to me.

Note: with both the old and new jars I don't actually seem to need the saxonx-dom.jar. What causes this jar to be loaded?


Thanks again
Chris

Thanks! Sorry, i never got around to doing it myself. I got as far checking out the source and then got distracted :(

That's brilliant. We're about to release a product with 2.3.0 but I should have some time next week. We can then hopefully incorporate saxon 9 in our next point release.

Can anyone suggest if and when these changes could be put into an official xml beans release?

Many Thanks
Chris

I have attached the changes necessary to support saxon 9
(I tested it with the current saxon release, 9.0.0.4), to
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XMLBEANS-367.
The checkin test suite passes 100% with my changes.
The detailed test suite has the same failures and errors
as before my change.
Chris,
if you could pick up my change (if you do not wish to work
with the source, you can simply use the xbean_xpath.jar I
attached to the JIRA, replacing the one for 2.3.0), and
try it out, that would be great. The saxon jars that are
needed are saxon9.jar and saxon9-dom.jar.
Please report any problems or issues - or lack thereof. :-)
Thanks,
Wing Yew

I noticed the FAQ (http://wiki.apache.org/xmlbeans/XmlBeansFaq#whatJars)

seems out of date.

Is it still true that for XPath queries you just need saxon8.jar and saxon8-dom.jar in the classpath when using XMLBeans 2.3.0 and Saxon 8.8?
What is saxon-xpath.jar for?

If required, I would be willing to update the FAQ for you.

What is the progress on the next version of Xbeans? Will it support Saxon 9 and hence XPath 2.0?

Thanks
