Infonyte Power Tools

The Infonyte DB Power Tools provide frequently required functionality via XPath extension functions and PXSLT extension elements that is either not covered by XPath 1.0 and XSLT 1.0, or provides access to Infonyte-DB specific functionality via XPath or XSLT.

Infonyte Power Tools provide following extension functions:

• Dynamic evaluation functions: covers extension elements and functions that deal with the dynamic evaluation of strings containing XPath expressions as proposed by exslt.org
• Basic set functions: difference, distinct, intersection, functions to determine document order, subrange, node-set to string conversion
• Sort functions: string sort, numerical sort, collation aware sort
• Node comparison functions: equal, node-before, node-after
• String functions: lower case conversion, upper case conversion, alignment, padding, tokenization
• Regular expressions: pattern tests, string replacement, string extraction
• Evaluation functions: unordered evaluation, conditional evaluation
• XQL replacement functions: node creation, attribute creation, text node creation, serialization to file
• Bulk algebra: very performant implementation of a bulk algebra taking advantage of Infonyte's efficient physical XML representation.
