<klotz> thanks nick having dialing troubler

<alain> http://betterform.wordpress.com/2011/10/12/aeronautical-information-services-ais-and-xforms/

<klotz> ebruchez are you joining?

<nick> John wants to write context-expr/eval($expr) but this isn't supported in xpath 1.0

<nick> you can't put a function in the middle of a location path when using xpath 1.0

<nick> this feature is added in XPath 2.0

<nick> so John wants eval-in-context($expr, context-expr)

a sort action needs to call something like compare(eval(keyExpr, firstElem), eval(keyExpr, secondElem))

caller of sort provides keyExpr = concat(last, first)

in xpath 2, write firstelem/eval(keyExpr)

but doesn't work between xpath 1 and xpat 2

<ebruchez> <xforms:function>

<ebruchez> sort(expression, comparator-function-name, etc.)

<ebruchez> sort(instance()/person, "my-comparator")

<ebruchez> <xforms:function name="my-comparator">

<klotz> RESOLVED: We add eval-in-context to our eval proposal, but the second parameter is the context node
