Re: [xsl] xpath 3.0/3.1 in schema 1.1

The answer is technically, no. A processor allowing you to use XPath 3.0 
expressions would not be a conformant XSD 1.1 processor.

However, we need to remember that conformance is not an absolute requirement 
that takes precedence over everything else. If some vendor sees a market demand 
for a validation engine that offers XSD 1.1 with XPath 3.1 additions there is 
nothing to stop them producing a product that meets that demand. The fact that 
it's not a conformant XSD 1.1 processor wouldn't stop it being a useful product.

hello friends

I am wondering whether I can use xPath 3. in a schema 1.1. 
I know it is a kind of off topic… Do I still get an answer?

Cheers
