Hi, Thank you for your reply. Now i want to implement XPointer xpointer()<http://www.w3.org/TR/2002/WD-xptr-xpointer-20021219/> which was one important part of XInclude for Xerces, so, i have to implements all the XPath 1.0 support for Xerces.For me,there are two ways to go:
1. improve existing XPath support in Xerces; 2.implement a brand new XPath support for Xerces May be proposal 1 is better, but for me, i am so familiar with Xalan,and Xalan implements all the XPath 1.0 already, if i transfer Xalan XPath 1.0 implemention to Xerces (may be need some change),this transfer job will be faster and much more convenient. So,You guys are experienced Xerces developers and open source pionneer,i need more professional advises from you.
