Hi Micah, good question, I should have givem more details. Independantly of the limited resources which are a very real problem too, XQuery doesn't make that much sense when playing with a single document, my feeling is that it's more fit for a set/database of documents, i.e. libxml2 might be used to implement an XQuery engine on top of some database but just for within libxml2 it's not worth it. but I may be wrong about it, I could ask Jonathan if needed :-) Daniel -- Daniel Veillard | libxml Gnome XML XSLT toolkit http://xmlsoft.org/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Rpmfind RPM search engine http://rpmfind.net/ http://veillard.com/ | virtualization library http://libvirt.org/ _______________________________________________ xml mailing list, project page http://xmlsoft.org/ [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/xml
