| XQUERY |
Now that the xquery 1.0 standards have arrived, you finally have a tool that will make it much easier to search, extract, and manipulate information from xml content stored in databases. this in-depth tutorial not only walks you through the xquery specifications, it also teaches you how to program with this widely anticipated query language.
xquery is for query writers who have some knowledge of xml basics, but not necessarily advanced knowledge of xml-related technologies. it can be used both as a tutorial, by reading cover to cover, and as a reference, by using the comprehensive index and appendixes. either way, you will gain the background knowledge in namespaces, schemas, built-in types, and regular expressions that is relevant to writing xml queries.
this book provides:
* a high-level overview and quick tour of xquery
* information to write sophisticated queries, without being bogged down by the details of types, namespaces, and schemas
* advanced concepts for users who want to take advantage of modularity, namespaces, typing, and schemas
* guidelines for working with specific types of data, such as numbers, strings, dates, uris, and processing instructions
* a complete alphabetical reference to the built-in functions and types
you will also learn about xquerys support for filtering, sorting, and grouping data, as well as how to use flwor expressions, xpath, and xquery tools for extracting and combining information. with this book, you will discover how to apply all of these tools to a wide variety of data sources, and how to recombine information from multiple sources into a single final output result.
whether youre coming from sql, xslt, or starting from scratch, this carefully paced tutorial takes you through the final 1.0 standards in detail.
