Injecting XML input into XQuery using Spring
I recently went to a XML Access Languages event held jointly by W3C and xmluk.org. Presentations centered on XQuery, XSLT 2.0, XPath 2.0 and SPARQL. The whole event was tremendously interesting and I will probably blog further about this at a latter date.
Liam Quin gave a very enjoyable talk on XQuery which specifically caught my eye. Michael Kay (of SAXONICA) also spoke about the relationship of XQuery to XSLT 2.0, XPath 2.0 and XML Schema so I feel particularly well informed on the subject now (there is nothing like hearing it from the horse's mouth!). XQuery looks a bit like a hybrid of SQL and XPath (with FLWOR [For-Let-Where-Order-Return] syntax thrown in) and is particularly useful for accessing XML data across disparate sources.
