Zorba - The XQuery Processor

version 2.9

New Features:
  * Typeswitch expression extended to allow union of types in each case clause,
    as specified by XQuery v3.0
  * In C++ API, added optional XML formatting of exceptions.
  * Bind zerr:line-number-end and zerr:column-number-end variables in the body
    of a catch clause.
  * New C++ and XQuery function (see module http://www.zorba-xquery.com/modules/item)
    to estimate the size an item allocates in memory.
  * Extended sequence types to include unions, as specified by XQuery v3.0
  * In store API, added ability to specify a stream's originating URI (file)
    for streamable strings and base64Binary.
  * Added millis-to-dateTime() function in datetime module.
  * Added setCalendar(), getCalendar(), setLocale(), and getLocale() to
    DynamicContext class in C++ API.
  * fn:trace outputs "empty-sequence()" if the input is the empty-sequence.
  * Allow multiple default function namespaces.
  * $array() => jn:members($array), $object() => jn:keys($object)
  * Added xqxq:variable-value function.
  * Added canonicalize function to modules/xml.
  * Added support for xs:dateTimeStamp type from XMLSchema 1.1, bug #924754.

Optimizations:
  * Extended optimization rules for subsequence function (pushing $startingLoc
    parameter into collection skip if $sourceSeq parameter is from a
    collection).
  * Introduced generic framework for optimizing fn:count() during runtime:
    Virtual PlanIterator::count() method provides the base (unoptimized)
    implementation of fn:count(). This base method is redefined by other plan
    iterators who have a way of returning the cardinality of their result
    sequence without actually computing the full result sequence.
  * Optimized fn:index-of function
  * Extented index join  rule to general flwor expressions.

version 1.0
  * Changes in the C++ API
    * Removed ResultIterator class. All public API methods use simply
      Iterator.
    * Added a new class named ExternalModule.
      This class must be used for registering external functions.
      This change makes the external function API incompatible with
      previous releases.
    * Loading pre-compiled queries (using loadExecutionPlan) requires to pass
      a SerializationCallback which is used for
      retrieving registered uri resolvers or trace streams.
      Moreover, the callback is used for retrieving ExternalModules
      which have been used when compiling the query.
    * Changed the append function in zorba::String to const. Now, the
      function does not change the String itself, but returns a new
      String. Furgthermore zorba::String::append can now handle other
      zorba::String objects - not only const char*. Also the operators
      + and += are defined on zorba::String.
  * Other language bindings (Java, PHP, python, ruby) also now use
    simply Iterator; ResultIterator removed.
  * XQC (C language binding) brought up-to-date with latest revision
    of that spec (https://xqc.sourceforge.net).
  * Resolving of modules is now enhanced by the so called "Zorba
    Module Path".  Moreover, multiple ModuleURIResolvers can be
    registered in one StaticContext.  See the documentation for more
    information.
  * Added static and dynamic context introspection modules.
  * Added the excel library to the built-in modules.
    Implemented the most used excel functions.
  * Added the math library to the built-in modules (the namespace has
    changed to http://www.zorba-xquery.com/modules/math)
  * Pass the Static- and DynamicContext as parameter to the evaluate function
    of external functions.
  * The XQuery class got a setTimeout option that allows the user to set a
    maximum running time of a particular query execution.
  * The StatelessExternalFunction is now non-pure by default. There is
    a new subclass called PureStatelessExternalFunction which should
    be used instead. PureStatelessExternalFunctions don't have access
    to the Static- and DynamicContext.
  * Renamed XQuery::serialize to XQuery::execute. The new method also
    implements the functionality of the XQuery::applyUpdates method
    (which was removed).
  * Added the serialize library to the built-in modules. The function
    util:serialize-to-string has been removed.
  * The DynamicContext can be used to pass arbitrary name-value pairs
    to the evaluate method of external functions.
  * Implemented CSV to XML converters. See csv2xml.xq module.
    You can convert back and forth between CSV files and XML
    or formated text files and XML.
  * Changes in the email functionnality
    * implemented smtp:send functions as external functions
    * added support for MIME messages (Text in character sets other
      than ASCII, Non-text attachments, Message bodies with multiple
      parts, Header information in non-ASCII character sets)
  * most of the runtime iterators and functions are generated
    (see https://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/zorba/index.php?title=Creating_New_Runtime_Iterators_and_Functions)
  * improved exception messages raised by the serializer
  * Json is now able to parse Unicode messages
  * improved functionality for java, php, python and ruby bindings.

    * fixed a crash caused by converting long integers (> 1024 digits)
      to string
    * the compile-only check reports the URI of the encapsulating
      entity in it's error report (used for XQDT semantic checking)
    * fixed 'for $x in () return $x/test' to return the empty sequence
      instead of raising a static error
    * fixed build using Xerces-C 3.0.1
    * fixed build for Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard)
    * improved error reporting in the command line utility
    * improved detection of the installed version of Xerces-C (raise
      an error if a wrong version is installed)

  * Added new option in the Zorba command line utility: compile-only,
    parse-only, lib-module, print-errors-as-xml.
  * Added two plan printing function (printPlanAsXML and
    printPlanAsDOT) to the SWIG generated APIs.
  * Implemented 'declare option': options are set in the static context.
  * fn:trace can be disabled by setting the option
    QName("http://www.zorba-xquery.org/option", "trace") to "disable".
  * Changed the scripting syntax of the exit expression from 'exit
    with' to 'exit returning'.This is due to an ambiguity in the
    grammar (see http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=6852
    for more information).
  * Added accessor functions for node items to the Item class in the
    API (i.e. getChildren, getAttributes, and getNodeName).

    a call to the fn:error function.

    DT_DURATION instead of DURATION).
  * Now possible to pass empty sequence as collection URI.
  * Now cURL is set to follow an infinite number of redirects.
