XQDT - XQuery Development Tools

Yes! It’s finally happening: XQDT migrates to the Eclipse infrastructure as an Incubator project inside the Web Tools Platform Project. Therefore, this is our last release from xqdt.org.New features in this release:- Zorba debugging infrastructure (This does not work with the latest released version of Zorba - 0.9.8. The development version of Zorba, or the Zorba version shipped with the current Sausalito CoreSDK release is needed);- the possibility to add Java-based XQuery engines (like: MXQuery, Saxon, etc). For details on how to set-up such an engine see: http://mxquery.org/?p=211Important bugs corrected:- infinite loop in the XQuery string lexer when “& was found in the code;- wrong function signatures displayed in the Outline View for functions having the same QName but a different number of parameters.XQDT 2.2 suffered major refactorings and added another dependency to the Faceted Project Framework, so please follow the Update Instructions on the Installation page in case you already have a previous version of XQDT installed.

We are pleased to announce the first public version of the XQuery Development Tools 0.6. (XQDT). The XQuery Development Tooltik provides support of XQuery inside Eclipse. Our goal is to have seamless integration with the Eclipse platform and the existing XQuery engines but also to create a user experience consistent with both XQuery and Eclipse standards.In the current version, XQDT provides the following features:

• Adheres to W3C standards, i.e. XQuery 1.0 and XPath 2.0 and XQuery Update Facility 1.0.
• Code highlighting based on semantic analysis.
• As-you-type validation.
• Code completion & code templates.
• Running queries with Zorba or MXQuery.
