We natively support XPath 1.0 only, in our native ISO Schematron implementation and also everywhere else (macros, "Search|Find Element", etc). We do not plan to natively support XPath 2.0 in the near future, mainly because XPath 1.0 is deemed sufficiently powerful when used in the context of XXE. Note that as of XXE v4.5.0, XXE includes Saxon 9, which implements XSLT 2.0 and thus XPath 2.0. Therefore you can now write XXE extensions which depend on this (truly excellent) component. > Is this possible? Yes, but you'll have to use a Schematron implementation other than our ours and to write a validateHook in Java[tm] invoking this external Schematron implementation. See http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/dev/validatehook.html See http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/api/com/xmlmind/xmleditapp/validatehook/package-summary.html See http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/configure/validateHook.html Explaining how to do this is out of the scope of this mailing list.
