Hi all, I have provided a prototype for XQuery impelementation type extension for Tuscany. I did this as part of my master thesis and I would like to contribute the sources and the idea to Tuscany if you think this would be useful.
Of course it is currently only a prototype and it is not production ready, but if you think that such contribution will be useful for the future of Tuscany I will be glad to help. Some notes about the prototype: 1. I see XQuery as a mighty data integration technology, that's why, in my opinion, the SCA specification should be enhanced with XQuery-related implementation type. 2. In order to prove this concept I created simple extension to Tuscany, which interprets implementation type "implementation.xquery". Generally the following contributions were done: - xquery artifact resolver - xquery implementation provider - Saxon data binding and transormes for DOM Nodes and SDO DataObjects 3. As underlying implementation Saxon B is used. This has its limitations - it is not schema aware, but it is free (MPL - licensed). 4. I created test cases for the following scenarios: - Sending data from one SCA component to XQuery component - Feeding data to XQuery component by using properties - Binding XQuery component as a web service - referencing other SCA components from the XQuery component 5. In order to allow integration of XQuery in SCA I have also provided some specification of how references, services and properties can be defined in the XQuery file.
