xpath 2.0 support #26

Closed TimHeap46 closed 6 years ago

TimHeap46 commented 6 years ago

Hi Uli, are there any plans to support xpath 2.0 or 3.0 going forward ? I really like the tool but it doesn't work for us at the moment because we need to able to support xpath 2.0

uli-weltersbach commented 6 years ago

Currently I'm using the standard .NET library for XPath queries, which doesn't and apparently never will support 2.0+. If you have a recommendation reg. a free .NET framework which supports XPath 2.0+ I'd be happy to use that instead of standard .NET.

Further consideration: people working with .NET apps might be confused when their XPath 2.0+ queries work in the XPath Runnner, but not in their XSLTs, XDTs, ASP.NET apps etc.

I'm closing this due to a lack of feedback from @TimHeap46 .

Hi Uli, we've found a different solution. Thanks for your help.
