Should this list also include new 3.1 functions that use higher-order functions, such as fn:apply, array:filter, array:fold-left, array:fold-right, array:for-each, array:for-each-pair, map:for-each? Also, should the 2-argument versions of fn:sort and array:sort be included? 118707 1 andrew_coleman 2015-03-20 11:02:15 +0000 The Working Group discussed this bug at the teleconference on 2015-03-17 and agreed to add these functions to the list as you suggest. Many thanks for reviewing the documents and raising this. 121792 2 mike 2015-07-06 09:21:44 +0000 The change has been applied as agreed. However, there are other functions that need to be included in the list, for example fn:random-number-generator. I propose that we don't try to enumerate the affected functions here, but instead label affected functions in F+O as having a dependency on this feature. 121922 3 jonathan.robie 2015-07-09 18:05:52 +0000 (In reply to Michael Kay from comment #2) > The change has been applied as agreed.

I agree that we should not enumerate these functions in XQuery. But labelling functions as dependent on the feature doesn't mean that they have to be implemented, which was the intent here. I'd prefer to have a list of functions, maintained in F&O, that I can point to from XQuery's conformance section. 121923 4 mike 2015-07-09 20:31:33 +0000 Perhaps we should try to defined the affected functions intensionally, e.g.: any function whose signature includes an argument or result whose declared type is a SequenceType that contains a FunctionTest. 121924 5 josh.spiegel 2015-07-09 21:09:32 +0000 fn:load-xquery-module should probably be in the list but I think it escapes your criteria. 121927 6 jonathan.robie 2015-07-09 22:03:11 +0000 (In reply to Michael Kay from comment #4) > Perhaps we should try to defined the affected functions intensionally, e.g.: > any function whose signature includes an argument or result whose declared > type is a SequenceType that contains a FunctionTest. Any reason not to generate that list in the F&O specification, adding in fn:load-xquery-module? It would be nice to have a list to link to. 122151 7 john.snelson 2015-07-16 15:50:17 +0000 This has been resolved under bug 28810. https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=28810
