[wtp-incubator-dev] PsychoPath XPath 2.0 Processor
|
XSL Tools received a code contribution from the author of the PsychoPath
XPath 2.0 processor. This is a fairly compliant implementation of XPath
2.0 and will be used as a basis for providing the ability to Validate,
and Excecute XPath 2.0 scripts. The XSL Tools editor, as well as the
XPath view could both leverage this ability.
The code has been given preliminary approval and is going through IP
review with the following CQ:
https://dev.eclipse.org/ipzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=2971
Along with this a separate CQ was submitted to allow us to include and
generate the W3C XQuery/Xpath 2.0 test suite to help test the compliance
of the PsychoPath processor.
https://dev.eclipse.org/ipzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=2975
The XPath 2.0 processor is currently housed as a standalone plugin. It
has no dependencies on eclipse itself or runtimes. The plugin JAR can
be used as a standalone processor, or as a library for other eclipse
plugins to use. Potential uses for this beyond XSL Tools, include the
incubating XQuery Development Tools project.
The Xpath 2.0 processor's plugin name is:
org.eclipse.wst.xml.xpath2.processor
The test suite will be:
org.eclipse.wst.xml.xpath2.processor.tests
XSL Tools currently has no dependencies on these new plugins. But they
will be used to help address the following bug:

There is also a proposed Eclipse Google Summer of Code project to have a
student help implement and fix any compliance issues with the processor
along with several other XSL Tools related items.
