This is an archived snapshot of W3C's public bugzilla bug tracker, decommissioned in April 2019. Please see the home page for more details.
"XQuery 1.0 and XPath 2.0 Data Model" specifies that: "The relative order of nodes in distinct trees is stable but implementation-dependent". The test nodeexpression23 seems to be assuming a particular ordering of nodes in distinct trees: <a>50000</a> << $input-context1/works[1]/employee[1]/empnum[1] (expected result = "true")
Anthony: Thanks for the message. The catalog file does specify an alternate expected results to account for the order. I will mark the bug as "wontfix". Please close the bug if in agreement. Thanks, Carmelo
Thanks Carmelo, you are entirely correct. No idea how I missed that. I'll close the bug.
