Appendix B: What Is XQueryX?
One of the most recent developments in the work on XQuery is the efforts of
the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) to specify the XQueryX language.
This language enables the full rendering of XQuery in Extensible Markup
Language (XML) for computer-readable use and ensures its compliance with
W3C requirements. XQueryX is not designed for direct human use.
XQueryX is in the very early stages of development. This topic is included to
alert you to this emerging technology and to show the rapid pace of innovation
with XML.
For more information about XQueryX, check the W3C site regularly to
monitor the evolution of this probable standard. See the W3C paper XML
Syntax for XQuery 1.0 (XQueryX) of June 7, 2001, at
XQueryX is needed to make the programmatic use of XQuery consistent with
other XML languages and techniques. XQuery in the form you have learned it
so far does not appear in true XML format. By using XQueryX, you can turn an
XQuery expression into an XML document. If you can represent an XQuery
expression in XML through XQueryX, then all other XML techniques for
navigation and modification are available to the XML programmer.
